With the ever so developing world, not many of us have the time to visit a store and buy shoes. Plus, the internet websites give you so many deals on them. Yet buying shoes online is not as easy as you don’t get to try them and  people have had the frustrating experiences of   finding that the shoes they ordered do not fit their feet correctly. 
Let’s see some pointers to remember while choosing a shoe which best suits your feet:

The best way to do it is the traditional way your mom ever taught you. Take a piece of paper, put your foot on it and draw the outline of your foot. Now take a tape and measure the length from the longest tow to the ball of your foot. This is the best measure for your correct shoes size. This method is very useful when we are trying to buy shoes online.

Incase, you are buying from a store, use these:

1. Select a shoe that is shaped like your foot.
2. During the fitting process, make sure there is enough space (3/8″ to 1/2″) for your longest toe at the end of each shoe when you are standing up.
3. Make sure the ball of your foot fits comfortably into the widest part of the shoe.
4. Don’t buy shoes that feel too tight and expect them to stretch to fit.
5. Your heel should fit comfortably in the shoe with a minimum amount of slipping – the shoes should not ride up and down on your heel when you walk.

Follow these and you will never go wrong in your shoe selection.

“Give a girl the right shoe and she can conquer the world.”
