Determine the Profile of your Arch

First and foremost; it’s critical that you determine the profile of your arch.  There are the three basic arch profiles: normal arch, flat arch and high arch. Examine your footprint carefully and observe your arch type.  If the footprint shows about a half an arch; then you have a normal arch.  A normal arched foot is generally well balanced and therefore versatile enough to function well in most shoe styles that will be found on Colt Kwong Designer Shoes for Less.

If shoes are going to be worn for an activity that involves a fair amount of running or walking; then stability shoes would be an ideal option. A moderate cushioned shoe or shoes with moderate features are also well suited for light weight runners.

If the footprint shows your entire foot, then you are said to have a flat arch or low arch. With this type of arch; the inner side of the foot is not well supported. Therefore, a motion controlled shoe is called to help prevent inward pronation.

If the footprint shows only the ball and heel of the foot; it is referred to as a high arch. A cushion shoe would be an ideal choice for this type of arch to help absorb shock and a cushion the foot.  This shoe would also aid in the restoration of natural inward pronation.

Assess the Shape of your Ankles

For skinny ankles; bulky or chunky shoes are a strict no-no. Not only will these look oversized; they will prove to a complete mismatch with your body type. Delicate shoes with elegant heels (optional) and pointed toes would be a better choice. For thicker ankles a bolder shoe will be a better match to help balance the ankle width. Ankle straps or heels with curves should be avoided. When buying boots; make sure that the top part of the boot snugly fits around the calf. Select boots that suit and complement the shape of your legs. A thick heeled boot will help balance a fuller body. For shorter legs; ankle straps should be avoided as they make the legs appear even shorter than they are. Mules and thongs are an ideal option for those with medium to short legs.  Most importantly; shoes that pinch can be devastating for your feet.

Picking the Right "Running Shoe"

Running shoes need to be replaced on a regular basis in order to keep your feet in good shape. Running shoes are manufactured keeping different variants in mind. When buying a running shoe; it is important to determine the length, shape, type and width of your foot. This way; you will be able to buy a running shoe that is comfortable, with adequate cushioning that is able to reduce tension on the foot and therefore better support the body and joints.  They also help with balance while you run.

Determine the shape of the shoe by look at the bottom of the shoe and carefully observe and determine if it is curved, semi curved or straight.  Select the shape that best corresponds with the shape of your foot or footprint.  Most importantly; check the inner sole of the shoe.  Running shoes that are stitched down the middle are most likely more lightweight as well as flexible.  In order to ensure a perfect fit; it is advisable to try out shoes towards the late afternoon or evening; as your feet tend to be a little larger in size towards the end of the day.

The Checklist

When shopping Colton Kwong Designer Shoes for Less for walking shoes; ensure that the front part of the shoe flexes or bends easily. After putting on the shoes; wiggle your toes to ensure that the toe box has enough room for toe movement. Also ensure that the heel is snugly cupped within the shoe and offers adequate cushioning and stability. Lean back on your heels after putting on the shoes; and ensure that your heels are well supported. Walk around slowly taking steps from heel to toe. Ensure that there is no pinching or resistance. Furthermore, a thick tongue is preferred in order to prevent the friction or pressure on the foot caused by the laces. Padding on the ankle collar is a must for running shoes as they secure the Achilles tendon.

So next time you purchase a pair of shoes, give them a good once over and try them on before committing to them.  This is the best way to avoid buying another pair of shoes that just sits in your closet.
