Unless you’re an Olympian training 24/7 for a specific athletic discipline, chances are your workouts and exercise routines are holistically designed to give you a full-body workout. Running, jumping, indoor, outdoor, yoga, pilates – the types of workouts you do change day-to-day, so it makes sense that you’d want a pair of shoes tailor-made for versatility.

We’ve scoured the best the foot-market has to offer and have carefully curated a definitive list of the best shoes to go on your feet.
Don’t go all-in on a shoe that’s specifically designed for one surface (sorry, cleats). Say goodbye to indoor court-shoes with no traction for the outside world. Open up your eyes – and your wallet – to this list of the best workout shoes to wear to the gym and everywhere else! You can walk a mile in someone else’s shoes…or you could just buy your own.
