Sandal? Sneaker? Lace-ups? The best shoe for your foot
80, 000 kilometers run our feet in life - that is equivalent to two circumnavigations of the earth. One more reason to reward them with matching shoes. We show the perfect pair for each foot.
Poor feet! Every day we walk around on average 15, 000 paces. If the shoes in which they are stuck do not even fit, nasty consequences are inevitable: bruises, blisters, open heels. How would you find that as a foot? Cruel, right? Because just as every garment does not automatically fit us, not all shoes are made for our feet.
And yet it is very easy: feet like shoes that sit well. The biggest reward for the hard drag of the whole body weight is the perfect pair! Yes, that really exists. For example, starting from the width and length of the foot, there are more or less suitable labels for you. It is best to have your feet measured professionally in the shoe retailer. If you want instant relief for your total of 26 bones, 33 joints, 107 ligaments, and 19 muscles (yes, so many are in your feet!), It's best to click through our shoe solutions for five common foot problems. And promised: Your feet thank you with a satisfied half moon smile over all ten toes!
The perfect shoe for narrow feet
If each shoe seems too wide (even if the size is right), look for narrower models. Seems simple, but the width of the shoe is often disregarded when buying. There are standard sizes for most brands, but some shops also offer their shoes in different widths (eg via Asos.de, Duo Boots or Birkenstock, many Italian labels are also narrower). The slender shape for slim feet are pointed models with small or no heel - from high heels the foot slips out faster.
A flat, pointed shoe is ideal for narrow feet. It gives the foot support and retains its shape for a stable sole. In addition, everything is suitable, which firmly encloses the foot - from gladiator sandals to peeptoe booties to Mary Janes. Especially buckles and laces, with which you can make the shoe even tighter, are great. But even with narrow feet make sure that the pointed shoe is not too tight. Otherwise they will lead to deformations in the long run, and if it pushes, you get a bad mood.
The perfect shoe shape for wide feet
His wide feet can be felt at the latest in the evening: If the foot stuck in a too tight shoe all day long, he thanks you with painful pressure points. Remedy is provided by labels that offer shoes in different or larger widths (eg Duo Boots, Clarks, Sioux, Gabor, Salamander or many sports brands) - or put on the following models.
Soft leather shoes and sandals with adjustable straps provide plenty of room even for wide feet. It's best to always shop shoes in the evening, then your feet have their maximum width.
For wide feet avoid shoes made of patent leather and other rigid materials (such as synthetics), prefer to use soft alternatives in soft leather or velours. In I-need-these-shoes-absolutely-moments, the cobbler can help widen his shoes. Of course, this is not possible with every model: lace, nylon and synthetic, for example, can hardly be widened, rather the shoe is broken. And flat models fit better than high heels.
In general, the best shoes for wide feet are all models in which the foot can slip easily. Espradrilles, sporty sandals, sneakers and slippers are therefore a good choice. Who wants to do it perfect: The softer the sole, the happier the foot.
Sensitive heels? This shoe finally fits
It's that little nasty moment when you realize that your heels are bloody in the new shoes. And no matter how great the shoes look and how great they are with your outfits, they have to go!
Anyone who has incisions or blisters on his heels is probably wearing too big or big shoes, from which the foot constantly slips out. Even too small models hurt the foot. If the seat is not right from the start, it can occur at any foot shape, whether narrow or wide. And that not only hurts, but can also lead to further foot problems and misalignments.
Whose choppers are already irritated, just get in Mules for a few days. The shoes with the open heel are best bought in soft, high quality leather. A shoe that gently clings to the foot and is easy to slip in is perfect. Especially comfortable for many: platform mules or clogs with wooden soles.
Of course, if you want to protect your foot from new blisters, you can also take precautions: pads, anti-blister plasters or sticks help to prevent friction.
Again and again blisters on the feet? Not with these shoes!
Blisters are mean, really painful and they keep coming back. True? That's because the feet rub in the shoe. Unfortunately, the only way to counteract bubbles is often. The shoes come in well. Preferably not with bare feet, because they are particularly sensitive. If you do not want to endure that for so long, you can accelerate the process with Stretch Spray, the so-called leather stretcher.
The perfect shoe for bladder repeat offenders: soft models that nestle gently around the feet. Flat models and open sandals, which leave the foot as much free space, are great.
Leather and suede may need to be tucked in, but it usually gives the foot more comfort than a synthetic model. Also good: adjustable ankle straps that make the shoe customizable. Protect your feet at sensitive points before wearing them for the first time - every foot is different, so just pay attention to your personal tapping points.
High heels despite shaky gear? Here are matching hoes
Walking on high heels, is not possible without keeping track of your own feet with your eyes, with every bottle cap lying around and groping on house walls to the destination? Then you just have not found the right high heel for you. If you stumble back and forth in high heels, the shoe simply does not fit. The alternative? Wider, smaller heels, a platform sole - just all the shoe components that stabilize the gait.
A T-strap or an adjustable strap gives the foot more security, especially with really high heels. Wedges are also a great way to increase altitude without sacrificing Komort. A good basis is also medium high block heels. Happy feet guaranteed!
