Hi,

Just wondering if anyone can advise on the best footwear for Combat. Currently wearing my running shoes and not sure if this is a wise move as I had knee troubles last year.

Any helpful comments welcome.

Thanks.

    Hello!

    Definitely cross trainers, for combat you need a shoe that has excellent lateral support for all the shuffles left and right. I used to have a pair of Asics 160-TR (I think that was the number) and they were excellent, and unfortunately no longer make them so now I bought their replacement Ladies Gel Ayami Zone. They felt much lighter at first and wasn't sure if they could handle Combat and Attack, but they are amazing and I also use them for Insanity workouts so they are taking a beating and I'm not feeling a thing (I am prone to shin splints so I wear special insoles as well). I definitely recommend the Ayami zone, my pair are black and pink and very pretty!!

    Stay with the fight!

    I can't wear my running shoes for combat or my knees hurt.

    I wore my first pair out - nike free xt. They were good. Now I have inov8s. I like them a lot too. I use them for combat, pump, and lifting.
