squash shoes vs. running shoes

[velocci]

Hi all, what are the differences between squash shoes and running
shoes?

thanks

hi velocci

there are a couple of main differences

1. The heel is often wider on a court shoe (more stability)
2. the sole material is different (for more grip, less slip)
3. the front of the court shoe is designed for more wear and tear
4. the foot usually sits lower in the shoe (less likelihood of rolling
an ankle)
5. Not all running shoes have non marking soles.

dear jerry

i don't know the differences between squash shoes and your floppy eared
dog slippers but the difference between squash shoes and my pointy
eared kangaroo slippers are:
1. Squash shoes do not have a tail
2. squash shoes are not furry inside (mine are furry on the outside)
3. squash shoes allow you to run whereas my slippers only allow me to
hop
4. I only put the squash shoes on the wrong feet occasionally whereas i
do it with my slippers all the time
5. i never wear my squash shoes to bed but i do wear the slippers to
bed if i am extra cold.

hope this helps
