The last thing that women want is SMELLY FEET!
But sometimes it happens to us, whether because our activity , the shoe fabric, or the climate.

Wearing Your New Shoes Without Pain!


Some shoes are easy to wear, without pain of sore/wound heel. Mostly because the shoes fabric is very smooth enough to fit to your feet. But some shoes could give you a headache, from the pain /wound it caused to your heel or your toes or even BOTH!



This might happen because of  the model of the shoes (like highheels), or maybe the fabric that is too stiff to be used. But hey, who could resist sexy and tempting high heels in etalase that keep dragging your eye onto it, or pretty comfy look wedges that keep rewinding in your head, rite?

 
To overcome these problems, the shoes need to be smoothening. Here are some tips from the experts:

1.The shoes must be wore like 3-4 times, before it become comfortable. Make sure you wear heel cover or toes cover to prevent sore/ wound heel or toes for first times used.  
   
-        2. Spray inner shoes with body lotion, in order to smoothening the surface of the inner fabric.
Leave it for 1 night, or even 2 days. Don’t forget to wipe clean the body lotion after that.

3. Smoothen your inner shoes by full filling it with used paper, or plastic that has been crushed before. Press those filling toward inside the shoes untill there’s no more room left inside shoes. Leave it for 1 night or 2 days. This is to stretch the fabric not tight when you are ready to wear it.

-        4. Keep your shoes outside the box for several times, let it contact with air. Sometimes air could help stretching / smoothening the fabric.

Buying shoes online is now becoming more interesting since we rarely have time to go for shopping. After spending most of the days at the office, we prefer to spend our weekends with family or loved ones.

Some customers are sending us emails regarding this problems. Here are some tips that could be your guidelines in shopping for shoes online:

1. Measure your feet before buying the shoes. Some online store provide measurement chart which consist lenght and width as a guideline to know your size. If you're not sure about your size, consult with their customer service.

2. Sometimes you need to know whether the shoes match with your dress or outfit. The easiest way is to look on their lookbook or look for an image of someone whose wearing the shoes or other similar shoes.

3. What about the colour? sometimes computer screen can distort the colour, so make sure to check the color setting of your monitor. Remember, when in doubt always go for neutral color such as black, brown or grey.

4. Another important thing is having the ability to exchange the shoes if they have a defect or do not fit on your feet.

5. Check the shipping cost. Some stores offer free shipping cost. This is a bargain that must be considered.
