[00:00:04.76] No matter who you are, the two things you want to think about in picking the best walking shoe for you are comfort and stability. So comfort relates to cushioning in the shoe and stability relates to the footbed and the traction of the shoe.

[00:00:20.18] So looking at a few walking shoes we have here today, we can start with the L.L.Bean walking shoe. It is great for short walks with smooth terrain, pavement, or well-groomed trails. It's great for casual walks with friends. And another great feature is it's ultra-light.

[00:00:36.53] Longer walks on varied terrain.

[00:00:36.95] So if you're an avid walker, clocking a few miles a day, you will want something more like the HOKA that has better cushioning, that you can see along the bottom in the heel and through the footbed.
