how to buy shoes...




Some people wear them only when they absolutely have to, while others try them on whenever the get a chance or pass by a shoe store. It has been reported that shoes can become fetish as some individuals never stop shopping new pairs just for the fun of acquiring something more. But regardless if you are obsessed or indifferent to the pair of shoes you wear, it is important to know some things on how to select and purchase shoes without regretting your impulse buying or extremely cautious shopping behavior.

Next time your friend calls you on Saturday morning to go out shopping for your next pair of tennis shoes, do yourself and him/her a favor and wait! Since feet usually swell as the day progresses, it is in your feet's best interest to try a new pair of tennis shoes, or any shoes on that matter, later during the day. Evening shoe-buying is advised by experts, as you will get a much better look on how your feet adjust to their new "environment" when they are not on their best shape.

When you actually are in the shoe-store and have found an athletic pair you are considering of buying, try on both shoes with the socks you will usually wear. This way you know if your feet comfortably fit the space this type of shoes provide. In case you are not sure of your feet's size, measure both feet while standing. Feet tend to expand a bit when your weight keeps them flat on the ground and you will know the exact size of your feet next time you are out shopping for your next pair. In case one foot is longer or wider than the other, it is best to buy the pair that fits best that foot. It is always better to have a little more space, which you can always minimize with the right type of shoe fitting products, than to have to deal with calluses later. Of course, you have to remember to leave some space between your big toe and the front of the shoe or your heel and the back of the shoe. Too much space is bad but too tight shoes can easily cause blisters and calluses. Not injuring your foot after taking a few steps is important. Do not forget that it is also important for you to be able to move all your toes inside the shoes you are about to buy. Restricted spaces are not going to make your feet smaller and can lead to serious problems later.

If you are lucky and the shoes you have selected are produced in your number and are available in the store you visit, try them on both, stand and walk in the store for a few minutes. If your feet feel uncomfortable do not buy them. Your feet's reaction to them will not change once you are home. Make sure you try at least two brands, styles and sizes. By comparing them you will be able to feel more secure that you are making the right choice. Before walking out of the shoes store, make sure you are purchasing the exact pair you have tried on. This is particularly important since some shoe types are not 10o percent consistent in terms of their sizes.

A general misconception is that highly priced shoes are in fact higher quality shoes. This is not true. In general, look for moderately priced shoes and keep in mind that you are primarily in need of comfort, not a brand name. When your new pair is home with you, try it on and begin wearing them when you are in the house. If they are slightly "broken," they will feel more comfortable when you will begin running to hit the tennis ball.

Why Buy Designer Shoes?

Designer shoes are a great way to immerse yourself in luxury. Many women, and even quite a few men, dream about owning a pair (or several!) of gorgeous shoes. If you're not familiar with the fashion world, you may be shocked to find out that not only women fall into this world. Many fashion companies produce men's designer shoes as well as women's.

Even if you had never considered yourself a fashionista and don't usually go after designer names, design shoes are well worth it. Women's shoes, especially, are created to be unlike anything else you'll find. These unique styles simply can't be found in non-designer names. Prada shoes and Gucci shoes, for example, are created each season by two of the top fashion houses in Italy; all of the other brand names will be copying these new and trendy styles.

Besides the high style, both women's shoes and men's shoes are carefully designed to be as comfortable as possible, using high-quality leather to help the shoe conform to your foot. Shoes are typically constructed in such a manner that you can wear them for years without them wearing out.

What are designer shoes?

Design shoes often associated with styles that are designed for wearing with office attire or with an evening gown, but designer shoes can come in any style, including designer sneakers that are appropriate for everyday wear. Women's designer shoes are often seen as strappy high heels, but even comfortable women's designer sneakers are available.

There are Gucci sneakers, Prada sneakers, and Fendi sneakers, in addition to the high heels you might be picturing. The idea that all design shoes are "dress" shoes is a misconception. These are available in athletic styles, also. Although the design of Fendi sneakers are not as closely associated with the typical designer shoe, designer sneakers are very popular. One thing that you can be sure of when buying Gucci or Prada designer sneakers is the fact that what you are buying is a trusted brand. You can be sure of the quality of the materials used for the shoes as well as the workmanship involved in making them.

Design shoes are high-end shoes, although there is some disagreement over exactly which labels are considered designer. Typically, there are two types of designer labels: those that have been around for decades or even over a century, and those that are smaller independent designers that are very "in the moment" trendy.

Some of the best designer shoes come from Italy. Italian shoes are known for their durability and high quality. The top three classic designer names for footwear are Prada, Gucci, and Fendi designer shoes. All three have been around since the early twentieth century, and their names have become synonymous with style and luxury.

Italy has always been associated with fashion. Italy is the home of huge fashion houses and like Gucci, Prada, Valentino, Dolce & Gabbana, and numerous others. It's no wonder that people would hold in high regard Italian made clothes, bags, shoes and accessories and would prefer them over any other shoe name. Italian shoes have long been associated with class, quality and excellent craftsmanship.

Buying discount designer shoes and designer sneakers

The prices charged by designer boutiques can turn many away from owning designer shoes, but luckily there are alternatives. There are ways to get cheap special shoes. Whether you think you need the newest styles in Prada Sneakers, or want to add a few classic styles of Fendi shoes to your wardrobe, you can save money even when you are buying the latest designer shoes.

These discount shoes are just like the pricier ones you find in boutiques, except for the price tag. Because designer shoes are seasonal, and new styles of Prada shoes will be coming out every few months, you can find cheap designer shoes by waiting until the end of the season. Shopping online can be a great way to find these discount designer shoes. If you're looking for discount Prada shoes, discount Gucci shoes, or other top designers, online is the way to go. Buying discount shoes can literally save you hundreds of dollars.

Online stores generally offer cheap special shoes because their overhead costs are reduced, but beware of unscrupulous stores offering "designer" shoes that are actually replicas or fakes. These designer shoes will not be created to the same high standards as authentic women's designer shoes, and won't be as comfortable or last as long, besides any design considerations. Make sure that your discount Prada shoes are authentic; you can find cheap designer shoes without resorting to knock-offs.

Designer men's shoes

There are also many styles of cheap designer shoes for men, too. Designer men's shoes are usually more about comfort and a classic look than about following the latest trends. What should you look for when choosing men's designer shoes? Pay attention to the grade of leather and the quality of stitching in the shoe. Hand sewn also means that it is the most durable. Prada men's shoes are known for their classic styling. Designer men's shoes may be classic styles for the office, or even Prada men's sneakers for weekend wear.

Caring for shoes

Just because you've purchased discount shoes doesn't mean that you shouldn't take care of them. Even though they were less expensive than shoes normally are, your pair of Fendi sneakers will last much longer if you take care of them. After each wear, clean your special shoes. This is especially important if you wear your Prada sneakers through the grass or in the mud.

Polish your Fendi sneakers, and stuff the toes with tissue paper when you're not wearing them so that they will remain in the right shape. Store your Gucci shoes in the original shoe box or in another protected place so that they don't become scuffed in your closet. If you wish to save your shoes for special occasions, wrap each show in tissue paper. Wrap the buckles individually, to prevent them from leaving an indent on the leather. Your favorite pair of Prada shoes can become worn just by sitting in your closet. Your cheap designer shoes will last much longer if you care for them properly.

When storing men's shoes, be sure that they have plenty of air flow. Don't close them up in a plastic box; this can let mold grow, which will permanently ruin them. Never store your shoes unless they are clean and completely dry. Yes, even your Prada sneakers can grow mold, no matter how high quality they are.

Designer shoes are perfect for wearing on any occasion. Whether the event is a date, a business meeting, an interview, a casual party or even a diplomatic dinner, you won't feel insecure in a pair of Gucci shoes. Even for casual everyday wear, such as wearing while shopping or even while working out, women's shoes like Gucci sneakers or women's Prada sneakers are a high-quality and fashionable choice.

OK, there you are, down on your hands and knee's sorting through old, worn out women's and men's shoes. Somehow they have magically collected on the closet floor. Thoughts of being buried under shoes of all occasions, have drifted through your brain. Why is it so much easier to find a home for children's cast offs?

It seems there are always younger cousins or neighbors that are just the right size and would love to have a pair of almost new shoes. The speed at which children grow out of their shoes, makes second hand footwear a real bargain for the younger set. But how do you recycle women's and men's shoes? By the time adult shoes reach the throw away stage, most of them have walked through their share of snow and mud. They have also spent, many hours standing in wedding rehearsals, shooting baskets or walking waiting room floors. They are not in the best condition to be given a second chance.

So, what is next for these aging women's and men's shoes? Most cities have recycling bins. Old clothing, tennis shoes, slippers, heavy work boots and household goods are put in large bins. Then they are sorted. Unusable items are thrown away. Salvageable articles of clothing, shoes or household goods, are categorized and priced. Then they are marketed so that those less fortunate can pay a few dollars and receive clothing or shoes in wearable but not new condition. Recycling in this fashion, gives a second life to the clothing and shoes that would otherwise be thrown in the landfill.

In addition to recycling women's and men's shoes through second hand stores, there are other options. One of these would be through donation. There are several fairly new on-line companies that accept shoes in good condition. Many parts of the world do not have shoes for all of their people. Organizations have been created to bring the excess of one country to provide for the scarcity of another. These can be found by web search. There are organizations in Australia, UK, and US to name just a few.

Another type of recycling, is something that has been recently developed. Only a small segment of the population uses or is aware of recycling endeavors that grind shoes up, separates the parts and make others products of the pieces. This type of recycling can be used for all types women's and men's shoes, as well as children's shoes. Recycling is not a novel idea. In fact, taking products apart to make other products has been around for centuries. Some of the parts used from the rubber on athletic shoes are recycled and used for synthetic sports fields and indoor basket ball courts.

Short of destroying women's and men's shoes when they have that lived in look, recycling is the way to go. Giving the best ones to second hand stores, donating to world wide companies that distribute to areas of short supply, and using shoe material to make other products, are favorite ways to recycle worn out shoes.
