Good Cushioning

Thick sole cushioning protects your foot with every step. Since your heels hit the ground first, rear cushioning is particularly important. Any shoe sold as a walking shoe should have good rear cushioning.

Good Fit

Also look for a good general fit, including arch support that fits the shape of your foot. A shoe should feel snug but not tight with good lateral support so that your foot doesn’t slide or shift.

Overall Comfort

Your heel shouldn’t slip and your toes should have enough room to move. A proper-fitting shoe doesn’t need to be broken in. It should feel comfortable the first time you put it on.
