I was taught not to wear running shoes cause of how it's shaped, it's got a curved shape and your feet aren't flat to the ground, especially your toes, so it'll be hard to push off the the ground when throwing strikes.

[@sil3nt777]

That's what I was just going to mention. It is the worse because I've busted my ass and it was thin at the toes and more dense on the heel. I've boxed for a while, I will say I'm a cheap fucker. I'm looking for a good pair but no leather. Mesh and suede. Leather can be tough to break in and you'll sweat your dick off.

[@awnzotheman]

What about converse shoes?

[@josh1212121]

@@awnzotheman The best kind I found are either tennis or badminton shoes. They offer support to your ankles on all sides, unlike running shoes, cause it's purpose is to help propel your weight forward. Tennis/badminton shoes keep you more stable especially when doing side to side maneuvers with your feet. You do similar lateral moves when boxing. Don't wear running shoes, you won't improve as much especially when learning how to pivot or shift your weight when punching.

@@josh1212121how about basketball shoes

[@mamarkg]

Basketball shoes are a much safer option in general. Running shoes wont be that safe for everyone.

[@user-lv4ne7nq1h]

DONT wear running shoes for boxing they are not made for side movement, they dont have enough side support. Alot of them are also too high up with soft foam, you will roll your ankles if you are not careful Go with a basketball or tennis shoes, they are good for pretty much all physical activities.

[@Kronix7274]

What about trainers?

[@user-lv4ne7nq1h]

@Kronix7274 depends. Some are more ridge and some less. If you are going to get trainers, get one that are more ridge. Look for shoes that are low to the ground, have Harder foam and supportive upper materials.

[@giacomogiacomo1194]

@@budoboxing yeah so far this time for months I haven't experienced any injuries and I can move a lot more side to side in and out now than before when I was still using running shoes.

[@matthew8556]

Agree, I started training with my running shoes, after I liked boxing and started doing it more seriously I bought a pair of Adidas hog 2, good price and good shoes 👍🏻

I use my old football shoes and i need new ty now i know bettee

[@carbonfiberfan]

If you need boxing shoes for sparring so you won’t roll your ankle I’d go with Everlast Elites and wait for a sale.

[@dark3l192]

Well it’s all about your determination, not shoes. Old school Boxers ran in Boots. Me personally use running shoes and I got no problem with that

[@XcaIiuz]

Mizuno Shoes

[@coffeebytes3257]

Running shoes grips so hard onto my gyms rubber floor :/ .

[@mightyswagga]

What shoes do you have on in the video ?

[@reverselee3218]

Reebok Boxing shoes

[@ppadilla8990]

Since i live in spain football shoes are much better build and cheaper than other indoor sports shoes (i know its soccer for americans) these indoor football shoes i got them for 40€ and they are already close to 8 months old and they are still going so for me its a no brainer next time

[@nicholaskizer8298]

Thoughts on court shoes? They seem to provide great shock absorption, lateral support and are perfect for training hard surfaces.

[@patata3219]

They're good over all but they usually lack ankle support

[@ReadyDaddy]

damn, that advice sucks, im here cos i trained in running shoes so far and it utterly sucks balls... literally no support for ur foot/ankles whatsoever.

[@alexismundo9765]

I hate boxing in running shoes cause it’s so hard to move laterally

[@nicholaskizer8298]

Get some court shoes, tennis, pickleball, badminton are great options. They provide great support and some shock absorption, as well they are awesome for lateral movements quickly. All around awesome shoes, ASICS makes some comfortable options

[@alexismundo9765]

@@nicholaskizer8298 i appreciate the advice but I bought everlast haha

[@inthebooks3947]

Why not feet

[@adrian_zombturtle148]

Why not flat shoes?

[@budoboxing]

Jumping rope and lots of footwork practice could hurt your feet over time.

[@ender8170]

So which ones should you buy?? I have a shitty pair of old boxing shoes, but I don't know how to pick new ones. high top, low top, materials, etc.. taller outfighter.

[@mintjuliper9689]

See thats the thing m, the arch of where my foot is after 15mins in starts to become painful. I am 330+ lbs and just started incorporating footwork into my boxing routine so if you have any advice, please tell me!

[@halo37526]

Believe it or not if you can't afford boxing shoes use converse the are almost the exact same thing and what they were actually made for was to be a universal sport show but every one where's them for style now but you can run in them play b ball, box , powerlift and they are very in expensive to boxing shoe so you can use them until you save up for a good pair of boxing boots or shoes

[@guywithtrash231]

None

[@tiny_krane]

Bare feet ?

[@SIPRising33]

Hell to the no

[@f-bombsbalisongs4203]
