Running shoes have a heel to toe motion sole that's different from court shoes/trainers (flatter sole that helps with any side-to-side motion.) I dislike wearing running shoes for dance classes and court sports. Bad memories of a high school sports injury. </p> <p>That being said, i have been wearing Nike Free RNs for lifting and hiit classes and they have been great so far. It's a knit style so your feet don't feel completely restrictive like they do in a regular shoe, so they work well with my wide-ish feet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gym-shoes#post-2817681 Sat, 21 Apr 2018 11:17:54 +0000 starchild 2817681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Generic "training" sneakers, I like minimal kinds. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gym-shoes#post-2817673 Sat, 21 Apr 2018 09:48:58 +0000 looch 2817673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my New Balance Fresh Foam sneakers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gym-shoes#post-2817655 Sat, 21 Apr 2018 06:30:10 +0000 Littlebit7 2817655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’d go to a running store and get fitted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gym-shoes#post-2817649 Sat, 21 Apr 2018 05:28:51 +0000 erinbaderin 2817649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would definitely go to a store for something like this, you’re going to want to try them on to make sure they’re comfortable. All running shoes fit slightly differently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gym-shoes#post-2817621 Fri, 20 Apr 2018 20:01:25 +0000 LCTBQE 2817621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a kind-of-wide but not really wide foot too. I love my Nike Free RN flyknit sneakers--have them in two colors. They'd fit the bill for the kind of use you're talking about. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gym-shoes#post-2817614 Fri, 20 Apr 2018 19:45:00 +0000 Foodnerd81 2817614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am looking for a new pair of sneakers to wear to the gym. I don’t really run, but do classes (Zumba, body pump) and elliptical type machines. My foot is sort of wide but not wide enough for most wide width shoes. </p> <p>Any recommendations for sneakers good for general gym work outs, supportive but flexible, run wide? Or key words to look for? Cross trainers seem TOO supportive or stiff. Or best stores to go to in person? I usually just shop online but need to narrow it down. </p>
