Tai Chi Shoes-spun4

Tai Chi Shoes
I have been practicing tai chi since 1986. During these years I have tried and worn a variety of shoes for training and practicing in various styles of Tai Chi. These days,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], my focus is on Chen Tai Chi, which arguably is the most physically demanding of the various Tai Chi styles that are typically practiced around the globe today. Chen Tai Chi is the ORIGINAL Tai Chi style, and because of that, if the needs of practice of Chen Tai Chi can be satisfied, than it is very likely that the shoes recommended will work well for the other styles of Tai Chi as well.
Pictured above is a pair of 'typical' tai chi shoes that people usually think of. They are made in China and very inexpensive. Those shoes are junk really, offering little traction, little support, and fit is usually not optimal either. I don't recommend those at all!
In actuality, any good, comfortable shoe or sneaker can be worn to practice tai chi; however, I don't recommend them due to weight issues, questions about lateral support,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or costs in general. In addition, it is a light shoe, and offers good support and traction for all the demands of jumping, pivoting, and sustaining deep and low stances. It's a great shoe and is seen adorning the feet of many tai chi masters in China. This is my personal recommendation for the best choice in a Tai Chi Shoe.
Here is another great shoe that I have tried which is similar to the Asics Tai Chi mentioned above. This shoe is a bit different in that there is no lacing system,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but rather uses a velcro tab for security instead. This is a very fast,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], very comfortable shoe to don and doff,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and it offers many of the traits I find desirable in a tai chi shoe. My teacher was reluctant to recommend them, as he felt that there wasn't sufficient cusioning,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and that fit may not be optimal. Despite his complaints,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], though, I was determined to try these out because they were so inexpensive,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and ALL my wu shu friends ( I know A LOT of those guys!) insisted these would suffice for my training.
First off,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the price is exemplary! These are inexpensively made in China,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and offer sufficient cushioning. Lateral support is a bit lacking; however, the traction is very good, and it also allows for comfortable pivoting motions. My teacher was correct, though, that fit was NOT as good as possible. These shoes tend to run a bit narrow in my experience.
With the canvas tops, these shoes dirty very rapidly and they diminish in appearance very fast. While comfortable for several weeks,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in casual wear, these shoes are highly subject to weather conditions and in icy weather, offer VERY little traction.
That said, I believe these are possibly the best values for a Tai Chi Shoe. They are inexpensive enough,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], that we can purchase one pair for class, and have a spare for the car,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or locker. And still have some money left over,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when compared to the Asics or Puma models. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I believe that serious practitioners of Tai Chi will be better served by spending the money on the former choices over the feivues.
