Shopping for sneakers often boils down to one question: fashion or function?

While theyre technically running shoes, Asics are great multitaskers.
We love them for walking, running errands, and (yes) squeezing in some quicker miles.
And, of course, we have to mention the cushioned insole.

It has arch support, making it the perfect design for fallen arches.
These are all phrases Ive used to venture to describe the Hoka experience.
The extrinsic design of Hokas is great for a lot of pathologies, one of them being flat feet.

The stacked midsole and heel rocker really allow well-supported stride.
Ons lightweight shoe models prioritize comfortwithoutthe amount of foam other models offer.
On running sneakers are also a favorite for pes planus foot types, says Dr. Sanghvi.

The sneaker designs allow for compression upon impact, absorbing shock and minimizing stress on your joints.
Designed with Ons signature CloudTec cushioning, the shoes supposedly reduce muscle fatigue and help lower your heart rate.
Its one of the main reasons why we picked On as ourbest travel shoe.

Although technically designed for running, we love them forstanding on your feet all dayor spending the day outside.
For those with a slightly wider foot, we recommend the CloudGo Wide.
And, of course, they have plenty of arch support and cushioning.

As one reviewer wrote, I knew as soon as I tried these on theyd be perfect.
I wore them everyday on the trip walking 15K to 20K steps a day.
I didnt break them in prior to the trip.

No blisters or rubbing and SO comfortable!
This Y2K-inspired style features nice arch support, a lightweight feel, and the coziest design.
