Gym sneakers
Today, store shelves are full of all types of clothing and footwear. But how to choose sneakers for physical education and what should you pay attention to? This choice must be approached especially seriously and responsibly so as not to get a lot of unpleasant sensations during classes or, even worse, injury. It is necessary to pay attention to some features when choosing sneakers for school.
Appearance
Any footwear should be, first of all, soft and durable, this also applies to sneakers, regardless of the purpose for which you purchase them. For physical education, it is better to give preference to sneakers with a grooved sole, but you need to make sure that it is not too bulky and does not bring unnecessary inconvenience and a feeling of heaviness, as this will greatly interfere during exercise.
The seams should be straight and neat, with no thick threads sticking out. For physical education, it is better to take sneakers of stricter and more calm colors, since often shoe manufacturers, especially children's shoes, hide not the best quality behind a bright and catchy design.
Quality
It's easy to check the quality of gym shoes:
- In the inner part of the shoe there should be a soft, but stable support, like a pillow - this is an instep support that participates in the correct distribution of the load on the foot.
- In addition, it is necessary to eliminate unpleasant, chemical odors from shoes, which, as a rule, are felt immediately.
- The upper part should be soft, and the backdrop should be hard and after pressing on it should not deform.
- It is also necessary to check the nose of the sneakers for the possibility of damage: when pressed, the nose should quickly return to its previous position, without leaving marks and dents.
- It is advisable to have a soft, blown roller in the ankle area to avoid chafing.
Pay attention to the little things.
Few people know that gym shoes should be slightly longer than the foot, but no more than 2 cm.
In addition, such shoes must be spacious, the leg should not be cramped.
There are special models, which are called "breathable" - these are sneakers with special membranes that participate in more active air circulation and protect from moisture, which will perfectly save you from unpleasant odors and sweat, especially during heavy and prolonged physical exertion.
In addition to the usual lacing, you can choose sneakers with Velcro, as they will be no less secure on your foot, which is very important when doing physical education and will help to avoid serious injuries. But it is necessary to ensure that the sticky coatings are not clogged or covered with dust, since in this case, the Velcro will not hold so tightly.
For junior pupils
When choosing sneakers, you need to pay attention not only to their functional aspects and safety, but also to their style. Elementary schoolchildren can opt for comfortable and soft sneakers in both gentle and more catchy tones, as long as they do not distract too much during class. For boys, plain or dark sneakers with a white toe, or light sneakers with dark inserts and white lacing are certainly suitable. Girls can choose sneakers of any delicate shades, from pink to blue, and can not only exercise in such shoes, but also go for walks outside of classes and look not only sporty, but also stylish.
For teenagers
For high school students, there is also a chic selection of sneakers at the moment. Men's sneakers, as a rule, have dark colors and bright inserts, in the form of colored stripes or lightning, even white lines. However, for the male half there is also a huge selection of light-colored sneakers, with rare black patterns or inscriptions and black inner lining, which looks quite impressive.
Girls can choose not only sneakers for school on a standard flat sole, but also on wedges, which are not intended for sports, but only for everyday wear. Such shoes are very comfortable and warm and more like not ordinary sneakers, but soft ankle boots in a sporty style.
When choosing sneakers for school, it is better to pay attention to models from reputable manufacturers such as Nike or Adidas. These brands produce footwear suitable for both physical education and everyday wear. In addition, these companies create high-quality and stylish shoes, among which both a child and a teenager can choose something for themselves.
