If it feels like you’ve been noticing more body-weight workout content on your social feeds—the kinds of exercises your grandfather might have done in gym class—you’re not imagining things.

Choosing the right pair of walking shoes for women requires more than just ditching high heels. You may not realize it, but you carry your own weight when you walk and that has a major impact on your feet. Aside from working your muscles, walking can help reduce your risk of heart disease. But, you need to put in at least 30 minutes a day to nab those benefits. And you can’t do that if your feet hurt.
