It doesn't matter how fancy a shoe is with amazing features etc. the key
issue is the fit of the shoe.
If your walking shoe doesn't fit you well, you will get blisters and sores.
Cushioned
shoes are usually very flexible. They are not the best type for support. If you
have high arches or neutral feet that don't need any special type of support
you can buy cushioned walking shoes.
Stability
walking shoes are a type of shoe that balances the rigidity of the motion
controlled shoe with the support and flexibility of neutral shoes.
Ideally, walking shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles which for an average committed walker would be between 3 and 6 months. Don't judge it by how the shoe looks as the inner support could be worn away but the shoe still look great. You will feel the difference between an old and a new shoe.
When you run your foot is in contact with the ground a lot less than when you walk. For this reason the shoes are built differently but even within walking shoes there are many different categories such as long distance walking.
