7 Tips to Choose the Right Shoes from Melbourne Shoe Shops

Shoes are an inseparable part of your daily fashion.  There are quite a number of considerations that you need to make while purchasing the right casual shoes in Melbourne. You should choose something where style and comfort will merge. In order to keep your feet in good shape, you have to take care of a number of things. Below are some of the tips that will help you choose the right shoes that will be stylish and at the same time very comfortable for your foot.


  • Shop for shoes in the afternoon – Your foot tends to expand after being used in the morning.
  • Take the tracing of your foot – You should at first make the tracing of your foot by placing it on the paper. Before purchasing, you should position the shoe over the tracing. If it is narrower or shorter, you should reject it immediately.
  • Ask the salesperson to measure your feet – You should measure both your feet at the time of purchasing the shoes. Usually, the size of the feet changes with age. The feet usually get wider and broader with age. If one foot is larger than the other, you should buy the shoes for the larger one.
  • Wear the same socks – You should wear the same socks that you intend to wear all the time at the time of purchasing the shoes.
  • Standing in the shoes – You should press the top of the shoe gently in order to have an idea about the gap between the longest finger and the upper portion of the shoe. There should be minimum half inches gap between your longest finger and the top portion of the shoe. This will provide proper space to the shoe at the time of moving forward. You should wiggle your toes in order to see if there is enough room.
  • Walk around to determine the comfort level – While shopping in the Melbourne shoe shops, you must do this to judge how they feel. You should understand whether the balls fit snugly, or the shoes seem to pinch off or slip off at times. You should not assume that the shoes will break in eventually. You should choose the right shoes from the beginning itself.
  • Feel the soles – You should be careful about the soles of the shoes. By walking around the shoe store, you should try and understand if it is capable of providing you with optimum protection against sharp objects. You should walk on both hard and soft objects in order to get the feel of the same.
