You may consider this article useless but I was really surprised to reveal the fact so many people don’t actually know how to choose and try on shoes so that they fit right on their feet.
I love shoes and thus visit shoe shops pretty often. I see people who seem to be unaware of the simple rules one should follow when buying footwear.
The advice you’ll find in this post will certainly help you and probably even make your life easier when you wear a nice pair which you’ve bought correctly.
1. First and foremost, try on a variety of brands, styles and sizes to understand which producer makes the most comfortable shoes for you.
2. Remember that feet normally swell over the course of the day, so to insure a proper fit, always try on shoes later in the day.
3. Make sure you try on both shoes. It is important as most people have a slight size variance from one foot to the other. It is evident you must buy the size of shoes according to your larger foot.
4. When you put on shoes stand up and walk a bit to feel whether they are comfortable or not.
5. Don’t allow for a “breaking in” period. Shoes should be comfortable when you first wear them.
6. When going to a shoe store ensure you wear the socks or hose you’d normally wear with the shoes you’re considering.
7. There should be just a bit of space between your heel and the heel of your shoe. If the space is too much it is bad for your feet will move all the way you walk. In case you choose a pair with no space at all the heel of the shoe will rub or press into your skin.
8. Make sure you can move your toes freely. Shoes that constrict or pinch your toes will make you miserable fast, and can lead to pain, and more serious problems down the road.
9. When you have already chosen a pair take the actual pair you tried on to be certain you’re getting exactly what felt good.
I wish you to find the best pair imaginable with the help of my advice!


































is there anyone who doesn’t know how to try shoes on???? it’s hard to believe…
Oh, yes, there are millions of women (and a much smaller number of men) who buy shoes for the looks only. Just read countless “buyer reviews” on Zappos! You will find that majority of buyers will sacrifice comfort for the sake of fashion, even if it cripples them and they can no longer walk after 2 hours of wearing their “hot” shoes.
The so-called breaking-in period seems totally normal to them, even if the shoes are made of man-made materials. Pretty pathetic…
Come, test and buy. This is right advice
