Whether you're planning to run, shop, or just go for a walk around the city, sneakers or sports shoes are the right choice. Athletic shoes are not only functional for various sports activities, but they also look good. Generally speaking, sports shoes are those that allow us to comfortably perform physical activities in various forms. Such shoes should not limit us in physical activity but rather provide a "competitive advantage."

What They Are Suitable For

Sport shoes can be useful for running, exercising in the gym, outdoor walks, or even basketball. Depending on the specific physical activity, you will choose specific shoes. In general, athletic shoes can also be used for everyday wear. They are expected to have good durability, be sufficiently breathable, have solid arch support, and be adequately ventilated.

Sneakers for the Beach

A special category of sports shoes that we offer on Rigad.cz are sneakers specifically designed for use near water. These are shoes with a sophisticated construction, designed to match the requirements of water use and its surroundings as closely as possible. This includes "details" such as rust-resistant lace eyelets, rubberized toes, or even flat laces that facilitate the joint use of such sneakers with fins.

Which Materials to Choose

Various types of materials are suitable for athletic shoes and sneakers, with rubber soles being appropriate for the aforementioned "water" models. Regardless of the intended use of the sneakers, you will appreciate breathable and quick-drying fabric. As for membrane-related matters, such as Gore-Tex^®, these are more suitable for situations where you expect to encounter rain while wearing the sneakers. Besides rubber, manufacturers also use licensed or their own patented materials for soles, such as Vibram^® or Contagrip^®.
