Waterproof sneakers

The main feature of waterproof sneakers - the material from which they are made. Top sneakers - synthetic multi-layer material, leather, raincoat or membrane coating. Winter options are fur lined.

The sole for such shoes is made of PVC materials that are resistant to low temperature. Also, the outsole has a high tread for stability and warmth.

Fashionable technology used by manufacturers - Core-Tex: such shoes do not let moisture inside, takes the sweat out, which means that the feet of the owner of such a pair will be warm and dry.

Waterproof sneakers can be for different seasons and goals:

• Autumn-spring models - have a light insulation, the sole can be both high and low. The weight of these sneakers more than the summer models. Made of both leather and its substitutes and synthetic materials.

• Winter - overpriced models with fur and high relief protector. The material for such sneakers is leather or raincoat fabric.
• For running - made of water-repellent materials. The sole is straight and light, so that the run will be easy and reliable.

When choosing waterproof sneakers, the following aspects are taken into account:

• water resistant - sneakers should protect against moisture. The choice of material depends on the function of your sneakers. For running well suited membrane coating, raincoat fabric. For walking - breathable skin.

• sole. Pay attention to the stiffness and tread. The softer and better the bend of the sole, the less the risk of slipping. For the winter version, the presence of anti-slip coating is ideal. Next we look at the relief of the platform. If you buy shoes for an active pastime and workouts, then the more prominent the sole is, the more comfortable the run will be. Do not forget about the presence of the instep for proper load distribution. Many manufacturers have resorted to such additions as anti-slip rubber spikes. They can be directly on the sole or removable.

• ventilation. Shoes must be not only waterproof, but also breathable. If your shoes will consist only of synthetic materials, the "greenhouse effect" is formed. There is no need to talk about water resistance, because the leg will be wet and uncomfortable, which leads to various diseases.
• insulation. An important component for winter sneakers.

Another feature that may be useful is the presence of reflective elements. In the dark and twilight, this feature will allow you to remain visible, which means it is a plus to your safety.

Shoes should sit comfortably on the foot. To find the right size, choose shoes in the afternoon, when the legs are a bit swollen. Do not forget that winter shoes are worn with a toe thicker, so do not get carried away with the options "butt".

Naturally, high-quality shoes and should look appropriate - without too much glue, scratches, protruding threads and other troubles of manufacturing defects.

1. In order for the shoes to serve you for a long time and not lose their qualities, it must be dried well after each run.
2. To keep shoes from making foul-smelling odors, use foot deodorant. Wash your insoles often and wind your shoes.
