Biegając w mokrych i zimnych warunkach, masz do wyboru dwie możliwości. Pierwsza to zakup pary butów jesienno-zimowych z membraną, która chroni przed przenikaniem wody i zimna do wnętrza obuwia, zapewniając suche i ciepłe stopy. Druga opcja to bieganie w butach całorocznych oraz akceptacja tego, że wilgoć i chłód będą się do wnętrza buta dostawać, na co jest proste rozwiązanie – grubsze, cieplejsze skarpety. W takim przypadku jedną parę butów do biegania możesz użytkować cały rok. Wybór jednej z tych dwóch opcji zależy od osobistych preferencji.
