Racewalking Shoes

 

Not much more than a good pair of shoes and comfortable clothing are needed to race walk.

Racewalking Shoes - I personally have had very good results with Mizunos in the past. Here is link to an article by Dave McGovern regarding the proper shoes for racewalking. Dave also has a section on his site with the Latest Racelking Shoe Deals.

Govindasamy won the gold medal at the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur. Malaysia first gold medal. I wonder if he walked bare foot.

( from listing's site ) - The 3-Stripes mark is without doubt the quintessential adidas symbol. It was created by the adidas company founder, Adi Dassler, and first used on footwear in 1949. Dassler created a symbol that could be immediately recognized when his footwear was used in athletic competition and associated with adidas. He emphasized the association with the slogan “The Brand with the 3 Stripes”. The 3-Stripes were first used on apparel in 1967. The 3-Stripes now enjoy worldwide recognition as an adidas symbol.
