Choosing soft and comfortable shoes is essential. Before you freak out, you do get cute and comfortable shoes.
So the next time you shop, shop smarter. Here are a few tips to help you choose your next pair of shoes smarter:
Size it
Shoe size tends to change as you age, so fit your shoes carefully before making a purchase.
Fit it
Try your shoes on before buying them as sizes vary depending on style and make.
Big foot
Our feet aren’t the same size, so make sure your shoes fit the bigger foot.
Walk
Make sure to walk in the shoes to ensure they are a perfect fit before rushing out of the store.
Shape is everything
Opt for shoes shaped like your foot. They will fit better.
No stretching
Don’t buy tight shoes with the hope that they’ll stretch… they won’t.
Sole is everything
Go for shoes with a good sole that’ll provide solid footing on those days you are on your feet a lot.
