 How to Choose the Right Shoe?



Our feet are like two heavy workers who try to adapt to the many floors we step on, to the many shoes we wear, and to carry our bodies throughout our lives and enable us to walk and run at the same time. We can achieve our freedom of movement by choosing the right shoes for our feet.

Women have more foot-ankle problems than men due to their preference for shoes with proven harmful effects on the feet, such as high-heeled and pointed-toed shoes. What should we pay attention to when choosing shoes?

When choosing shoes, make sure that they are made of materials that will allow the sweat to evaporate. The most suitable material that provides this is real leather. Do not choose shoes made of synthetic materials, if synthetic, it should be air permeable.

The toes should not be pinched from the sides or from the top. This type of shoes can cause deformities in your fingers.

The widest part of the shoe is the part that comes to the head of the scallops. This part should not be narrow enough to compress the scallops or loose enough to allow the foot to move in the shoe.

Flat shoes with no heels or high heels are not suitable for foot health. Continuous high-heeled shoes can cause not only foot pain, but also waist, knee pain and deformities in the fingers.

Heel height should be 0.5 cm for young children, 1.5-2 cm for older children, 2.5 cm for adult men and 3.5 cm for adult women. High heels in women cause scalloped feet over time. In addition, high heels cause ankle sprains by shortening the back muscles of the legs and stretching and weakening the ankle ligaments.

There should be a 12 mm gap between the tip of the toes and the front of the shoe inside the shoe. There must be a gap here so that the upper part of the toes does not rub against the shoes, otherwise calluses will form on the tops of the toes and under the heads of the scallops.

Shoes suitable for your foot size should be bought. As you get older, your foot number may change or your foot number also changes according to the brands. Get your shoes by trying on your swollen feet in the evening. The shoes you buy should be comfortable for your feet, even in the most swollen state.

Sneaker Selection

Many shoes are made to protect the feet from sprains and strains that can be caused by some types of sports. The shoes you buy should be suitable for the sport you are doing. The function, sole, ankle and foot-wrapping shape of each shoe is made for the branch. For example, walking shoes are harder, running shoes are more flexible, with extra cushioning a stronger effect is achieved.

You should feel comfortable walking or running with sneakers. The shoes should not have any uncomfortable contact parts. Wear the shoes on both feet and walk in the store. The back parts of the shoes should wrap the heel, the heel should not move in the shoe, and the front part should be flexible. The heel should fit relatively tightly. The heel should not slide up, down or sideways when you walk. There should be space at the toes, and all toes should be able to move freely. The upper part of the shoe should be comfortable and safe, not too tight.

Air-cushioned or gel-filled shoes with a springy appearance with extra shock absorption are very good for people who suffer from sole and heel pain, but are not suitable for people whose ankles rotate easily. Shoes should be both durable and light.

Feet should not be stuffy. The sole of the shoe should allow your feet to breathe. The most suitable material for this is leather. There should be enough laces. The laces must have sufficient tongue padding so that they do not impede foot movement.

Summer Shoe Selection

The bands on the upper part of the shoe and between the toes should be made of materials that do not disturb the skin, including leather and soft silicone. The soles of these shoes should not be too flat and hard.

Since they do not have ankle support, they increase the risk of ankle sprain as the heel height of the slippers increases.

Choosing Shoes for Babies

Baby shoes should be soft and flexible, allowing the baby to balance. The heel should be non-slip, resistant to load and stretching, and should be avoided as it may fall with high-heeled shoes. Shoes with high ankle support (boots) are generally not necessary; but if it is to be used, it should be ensured that the foot and ankle can be moved by the baby. The shoes should not squeeze the foot and allow the foot to stay in a cool, comfortable, odor-free, dry environment by taking in the air. Shoes that do not irritate and do not cause allergies should be preferred.

Forceful maneuvers should be avoided to put the feet into the shoes. Go through a period of getting used to the shoes, hitting the shoes It is not true that shoes should be tried on while buying shoes, a few steps should be taken to see if they are comfortable or not. After getting out of the shoes, the feet should be checked, it should be checked whether there are redness, pressure due to the shoes, traces and shapes. Behind the heel, there should be enough distance to enter a small pull, and it should be felt from the outside that the front foot is not stuck in the shoe. Instead of thick solid leather shoes, it should be focused on shoe alternatives that will support the foot and the mobility of the foot. Instead of tying the shoes with a buckle belt that is difficult to put on and take off, dressing them with a velcro bandage is an easier practice for the child to learn how to wear the shoes himself.

It is beneficial to go shopping with babies who are not tired and willing to walk, as they should try on shoes for children like adults, if they are ready to buy. Although it is not noticeable from the outside, babies may also have swelling in their feet towards the evening. In this case, it will cause the wrong size of shoes to be bought. The shoes should be checked by the parents every month and the wear margins and whether they tighten the foot should be checked. Since each baby's weight gain and growth rate is different, there is no clear recommendation on this subject. It is not recommended to buy big shoes with the prediction that it will grow.

Elderly patients with foot problems should wear shoes with certain features. The shoe should have an unbending heel contour, a harmonious insole that easily regains its shape after being deformed, and a soft, slightly curved sole.

The most important rule that should not be forgotten when choosing shoes: first our foot health, then fashion and good appearance. Thus, we protect our foot health and prevent deformities that may occur.
