Have you ever winced with each step, feeling your toes cramped and your feet aching? For many of us, this discomfort is an all-too-familiar daily struggle. But what if relief was just a shoe away? Welcome to the world of wide fit shoes – your new best friend!
Who needs Wide Fit Shoes? As we get older, the joints of our feet change owing to wear and tear. This can mean a slight spreading of the metatarsal bones – and consequently a wider footprint! In pregnancy, the natural changes to the flexibility of ligaments can also lead to needing a wider fit shoe. And if you suffer from any of the following complaints, this is a clue that a wider fit shoe can help!
The Blissful Benefits of Wide Fit Shoes Imagine slipping your feet into shoes that fit like a glove. That's the magic of wide fit shoes! Further benefits include:
Choosing Your Perfect Pair: A Guide to Wide Fit Shoe Shopping Finding a soulmate for your soles! Here's what to look for: Proper Measurements: Get your feet measured before you buy. Shoes are built on “lasts”; all of which differ and there is no standard sizing. A good shoefitter can tell what brand and size are appropriate. Getting a width measurement can really makes a difference. Quality shoe shops locally can be found in Lincoln and Bourne. Online services are a great alternative. Try the DB Shoes Fit Finder online to get your perfect fit. For expert help with your foot problem, a company called ShoeMed offer online video consultations and a service which delivers a range of styles to your door. One of our clients recently used their service to great effect – read her account the-comfiest-shoes-i-have-ever-worn-one-patients-experience-of-choosing-shoes-via-shoemeds-video-consultation.htmlhere. Material Matters: Opt for soft, flexible materials if you are suffering with your toes, but remember a sturdy upper supports your foot if you are prone to foot pain. Again, advice from a shoe fitter or self-measurement following a guide will be invaluable. Support System: Arch fit styles are becoming increasingly popular and suit those with flexible flat feet or those with high arches who benefit from more of the foot being in ground contact. A good alternative is a pair of orthotics which can be moved around the shoe. Try Before You Buy: Always test shoes by walking around in them. A good shoe should feel comfortable right from the start – no "breaking in" required!
