Things to consider before buying

In order to best choose the right running shoes that not only fit your body but also your use, I would recommend that you sit down and spend some time figuring out what you want from your running. Is the goal “just” to run a few times a week, would you like torunning competitions or do you have a big goal totrain for a marathon? It all has an impact on your choice of running shoes. Below I will go into a little more detail about what you should pay attention to when buying men’s running shoes.

• Running style
• Goal
• Use
• Previous training (including injuries)

Running style

First of all, you must know your running style, so you have a basis for choosing and rejecting different running shoes. You can basically run in three different ways: pronation, neutral, supination. The majority of all runners (about 70%) pronate, i.e. pronation. A smaller part has a neutral running style, while a very small part has a supinating running style. This matters for what type of support should, or should not, be in your next running shoes.

You can also buy what is called a natural running shoe in today’s Denmark. It is a new running style that has emerged. The philosophy behind this is that you really want to run forward and land on the midfoot or forefoot, because then you get the natural shock absorption from the body in your running. As opposed to a “regular” running shoe where you are a definite heel lander. The characteristics of such natural running shoes are that they are super flexible, and it is usually on a sole that is not very high. They should be as close as possible to the surface, to give you the feeling that you are running barefoot. It is a special running style that both your feet and your body have to get used to running. So always be patient if you jump into natural running

Goal

It is important to decide what your goal with running training is. Based on this, you have come a long way towards finding the right running shoes. There can be a big difference in which running shoes you need for different distances and paces. If you want to run fast over shorter distances, you should use some light running shoes. If you have your eyes set on longer distances, you might want to look at a pair of shoes with more cushioning. If you want to learn natural running, you should go tominimalist running shoes, unless of course you want to run barefoot.

Use

What will you be using your running shoes for? If you will be mainly running on asphalt and gravel, you should look forrunning shoes for asphalt. If you want to try your hand at trail running, you should probably look for running shoes specifically for trail, which can stand firmly on wet and slippery surfaces in the forest and mountains.

It is very important that you as a man choose to buy the shoe that suits your use. If you are an ordinary Danish man weighing 75 to 85 kg, you expose your running shoes to a lot of strain every time you take a step. And you also expose your body to many “impacts”. Therefore, it is super important that if you run on asphalt, you should have a shoe with lots of shock absorption to slow down these impacts. If, on the other hand, you only run in the forest, then it is of course almost “life-threatening” for your ankles to use what we know as the classic running shoe. Of course, you should have a lower running shoe with much more grip on surfaces.

Of course, this also has something to do with the durability of the shoe. You will (unfortunately) discover all too quickly that if you take your regular running shoes on the trail, you will very quickly get holes or threads pulled in the upper. It is simply not made for running in such terrain. So always think carefully if you want your running shoes to last as long as possible.

Previous training and injuries

One last thing you need to pay attention to is your current fitness level.(calculate your fitness score here) and what type of exercise/sport you have been used to doing. If you have previously suffered from injuries to, for example, ankles and knees, it is also important that you are aware of this when buying running shoes. You can solve this, for example, by buy running shoes that suit your running style, regardless of whether you run pronated, neutral or supinated. In addition, you should also be aware that Running shoe requirements may change if you are a heavy or overweight runner.

Most popular shoes for men

What is special about running shoes for men?

As such, there is not much difference compared to women’s running shoes. And yet there are lots of small/medium changes when we talk about running shoes for men. You can usually be 100% sure that when we talk about a running shoe in a men’s version, it is built on a *wider last. And what does that mean, you might be thinking. In short, the shoe is built on a wider sole. And this is done because maybe 8/10 men have wider feet than women.
You can also be sure that a larger shock absorption cushion is placed in men’s running shoes. Or it may be wrong to say larger – because of the weight and appearance, the shock absorption is guaranteed to be greater, but it is of course adapted to the use of the shoe. A running shoe for a man should have more softness in the heel, for example, since in the vast majority of cases the man will weigh more and probably land with greater pressure. Therefore, there must be more to slow it down.

The most common size ranges for men’s running shoes are from size 41 to size 48. However, more and more manufacturers have started to produce larger shoe sizes especially for men. Running shoes in large sizes have been in short supply in both physical and online sports stores for several years. There simply hasn’t been room for them in the assortment. However, things have improved in recent years.

The weight of the shoe

It is quite natural that the weight of a men’s running shoe is higher than that of a women’s shoe. There are very simple reasons why this is the case. Firstly, more material has been used to make the shoe. It takes more material to build a shoe in size 44 than in size 38. Secondly, some men’s running shoes also have more material used in selected places. Men weigh more than women, and therefore put significantly more strain on a running shoe. Therefore, there may be cases where extra support has been added to the shoe.

*Shoe width

The width of a running shoe can feel different from manufacturer to manufacturer, but in the vast majority of cases, a men’s running shoe is built on what is called a last D. There is nothing inherently bad about it, it has just become that way over time, that a men’s shoe is built on D and a women’s running shoe is usually built on B. Then selected manufacturers choose, and in this case with the men’s it could be New Balance, to produce the shoe with extra width. Then it is called a 2E width instead of D. It seems very confusing, but it is not at all. And if you ask in physical sports stores or online webshops, they will definitely know what you are talking about.

Softness and stability in the shoe

There MUST always be more softness in a men’s running shoe than in a similar shoe for women. And it all has something to do with the above. A man weighs more, a man lands harder with every step he takes, so there is naturally more softness in a men’s running shoe. Stability is also enhanced for the simple reason that it is very important to keep the foot in the position that the shoe supports. The upper of a running shoe in particular should actually be more stable than you might think. Many people mistakenly believe that it should be as soft and comfortable as possible. Of course it should be soft, but it should also be VERY stable.

You can use this to find the best running shoes for you. In each review I have also collected the cheapest online prices from trustworthy webshops ( btw. it’s much cheaper to buy running shoes online ), so you don’t have to look for deals and sales.

Men’s running shoe sizes

It can be a bit of a jungle to navigate. If only all manufacturers of running shoes around the world could agree on a single standard for sizes on running shoes, it would all be much easier for you as a consumer..
But unfortunately that’s not the case. If you’re already a runner, you know that there can be a big difference in shoe sizes. And of course you should be aware of this when it comes to men’s running shoes. Some are large in size, while Nike, for example, has always had a reputation for being small in size. But you can find lots of help here via vores størrelsesguide til løbesko.A good tip is to always start from the centimeter measurement, so you don’t go completely wrong.

Men’s running shoes – Find the cheapest and on sale

Why pay full retail price for a pair of men’s running shoes when you can buy them on sale online? But when are running shoes on sale? The typical pattern is that you can buy them at extremely cheap prices around January and August. The reason these two months are the most popular is because brands like Asics andNike launches the new collections at the beginning of the new year and late summer.

The guide to buying running shoes for men – how to save the most

When you search for things like “running shoes deals”, “running shoes sale” and “cheap running shoes”, you’ll get an incredible number of relevant results. However, there are also less relevant results. If you see a good deal on a pair of men’s running shoes, of course you just have to jump on it. These deals typically come a bit sporadically without a rhythm (apart from the sale periods in January and August).

With online shopping, there are always good deals, unlike in physical stores. You won’t find all men’s running shoes at -50%, but you can on many.
