How To Shop For Shoes

Why is it that so many times we go to a shoe store, find the perfect pair that both look and feel great, but once home we can’t wear them for more than 5 minutes before you are crippled? This has happened to most of us and some time or another.

The shoes haven’t actually shrunk of course; there are quite a few reasons why they don’t fit anymore. I have some great advice for you to stop this happening again in the future.

Were you aware that there is an ideal time of day to buy shoes? Well there is. Late afternoon is that time. Whatever you do; never go shopping for shoes early in the morning.

You may have noticed, depending on what shoes you wear throughout he day, that by the evening your feet are slightly swollen. It is for this reason that you should buy your shoes late in the afternoon.

If you bought a pair of trousers, would you put one leg in to try them on? Of course you wouldn’t, yet people still buy shoes after only trying on one. You need to put both shoes on and walk around the store a bit to make sure there isn’t any seams digging into to your toes, or any pinching or rubbing.

To further help you get a great fit in those new shoes, wear the same thickness of socks that you will normally be wearing with them. If you will be wearing pantyhose with them, don’t try them on barefoot.

It’s common sense really. If you are going for training shoes or tennis shoes, have on your feet the socks that you will be wearing them with; not a thicker or thinner pair.

People still make the mistake of buying an expensive, and tight, pair of shoes thinking that they can break them in. A week later they admit defeat and those expensive shoes gather dust in a closet somewhere.
