Slide in Offset Kick with the Toe While Wearing Shoes

This is similar to an offset kick with the top of the foot.

Kicking with the toe of the hard soled shoe (in this case a runner) has both advantages and disadvantages. Both ways should be practiced so that confidence in kicking is developed whether shoes are worn or not.

A shoe both protects the foot and makes for a more powerful kick.

It also adds weight and can significantly slow the kick down.
