Recovery Shoe vs. Running Shoe: Why You Need BothUpdated a month ago
Running shoes focus on propulsion; recovery footwear focus on restoration.
| Attribute | Running Shoe | Kane Recovery Footwear |
|---|---|---|
| Heel-to-toe drop | Varies (8–12 mm) | 6 mm |
| Cushioning | Energy-return foams tuned for speed | Medium-firm cushioning to ease muscle vibration |
| Upper | Breathable mesh | One-piece perforated foam for airflow & easy cleaning |
| Intended use | Active mileage | Post-run, travel, everyday casual |
Swapping into KANEs right after training removes compressive sock & shoe layers, letting feet splay naturally while still supported.
