Rest days kind of suck.
I know they're important. Your body needs time to recover, rebuild muscle and recharge your energy so you can run further, faster, easier.. but I still hate them.
I hate waking up sore for days, or having to rest when I really just want to go for a run.
I've been trying to optimize my rest days, looking into ways I can recover faster, or avoid the soreness.
And I'm happy to say I've found a few things that have made a huge difference! KANE Footwear has been my favourite tool for recovery so far.

KANE Revive
Built for Recovery & Comfort
Made with RestoreFoam™ and a textured footbed to boost circulation, the Kane Revive is breathable, ultra-durable, and designed for post-workout recovery. Backed by a 30-day guarantee and loved by pro athletes.
Using a recovery shoe has made the biggest improvement in my rest days
Wait... what is a recovery shoe?
I didn't totally get the idea of a "recovery shoe" at first. What's the point of a fancy croc? Doesn't recovery mean just lounging around all day doing nothing?
Well recovery shoes are built for the in-between — when your legs are sore, your feet are tired, but you still have to get through the day.
They're designed to not only make your feet more comfortable and feel more supported, but also get back to 100% faster.
1) The Comfiest Recovery Shoe
The Revive shoe is built to help you recover from your workouts. Whether it was a long run or a hard leg day.
It has a breathable exterior, kind of like a Croc, to stop your foot from overheating.
It has a unique form factor that supports your foot by securing your heel, arch, and instep, giving you a comfortable and stable feel.
The comfort of this shoe is unreal.
2) A Foam Sole That Doesn't Feel Like Crap
Not sure about you, but I hate when a foam shoe is too soft and doesnt offer enough support.
The recovery shoe from KANE gives the right amount of bounce-back without feeling squishy and holds up after months of wear and tear.

3) Textured Footbed = Circulation Support
I wanted to put this as part of #1, but it deserves an entire section. The footbed has small nodes, sort of like walking on a textured acupressure mat.
It took a minute to get used to it!
For like five minutes, I wasn't sure. It was a little uncomfortable, but then it started working.
The best way I can explain it is this:
You know how a massage hurts at first? But, after a few short minutes, in this case, just a few steps, it starts feeling amazing, and you start to enjoy it.
The KANE Recovery Shoe is very similar. A bit of uncomfort at first, but quickly turns into soothing and healing.
4) It's Durable and Easy to Clean
I went with the white/cream pair of the shoe. As you might guess, it doesnt take long for a white pair of shoes to get dirty.
Especially after a light jog for active recovery
While your average shoe is going to get soaked and absorb dirt, the KANE Revival is made from a sugarcane based foam.
This means you can get them caked in mud, and with a quick spray and wipe they look brand new!
So no more constant fear of wrecking your white shoes!
5) It Has Over 8000 5-Star Reviews
I was skeptical too. Why would a shoe make that much of a difference?
That was until I read the thousands of athletes and weekend warriors are obsessed with the Revive by KANE Footwear.
Plus, there's a 30-day guarantee, so if you don't love them, send them back. But honestly? You'll be obsessed.
I ordered one pair… and am now waiting on a second. You've been warned.
Final Thoughts: Are They Worth It?
If you take your workouts (or your foot comfort) seriously, the KANE Revive is absolutely worth it. They're smart, sustainable, and will make your days off so much easier.
Your sneakers need a break & your feet need better recovery.

I got a pair of these for me and my husband to wear around the house and in our garden and we love them. So easy to clean and super comfortable. The tops were a little tight when you size up, but I think they're meant to be that way to stay on. Still love them despite that!
Love these shoes!

Love the arch and support in these shoes along with the comfort and style! My new favorite shoe! As supportive as an athletic shoe but holes for foot to breathe. Beach shoe or exercise shoe or both! Socks or no socks. Very versatile.
Love it
