Happy Feet......Fitting Tips

Listen to your Foot Emotions

Treat your feet with respect and they will return the favor.

Happy Feet
These impressive foot facts will encourage you to select your next pair of shoes wisely: About one quarter of all the bones in your body (an incredible 52!) are found in your feet; in a lifetime, the average person will walk the equivalent of four times around the globe; and when you are walking, the pressure on your feet often exceeds that of your body weight. So be good to your feet; select proper fitting footwear.

The right socks

The right sock can make or break the perfect shoe fit. When trying on shoes, make sure you are wearing socks which are appropriate for the shoes. For instance, if you are trying on boots that you would wear with heavy socks, don't try them on with thin nylons.

The right time

There's nothing more disappointing than buying a shoe you thought was perfect, then suffering from its tight fit all day, or all night long. To avoid a tight fit, try on shoes at the end of the day when your feet are most swollen. Trying on footwear at the end of the day will ensure you've chosen footwear that will accommodate your foot at your widest. Now go ahead and dance the night away!

The right foot

No one is perfect. In fact most people (about 60%) have one foot that is larger than the other. Different sized feet can make shoe fitting a challenge. For most people, their larger foot is the one opposite from the hand they write with. Because the shoe must comfortably fit your larger foot, try the shoe on your larger foot first. And don't be shy, go ahead and request your feet to be measured for the most accurate fit. Then step on out!

The first step

Make your first step of the day as comfortable as your last. When trying on shoes, be sure to stand up and enjoy a walk around the store to evaluate their comfort. Then put the shoe to the "wiggle test"- a proper fitting shoe should allow you to wiggle your toes. For most footwear, your toes will be able to touch the top of the shoe, but there should be 3/8" to 1/2" of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

The right shoe

What mistake most often made when buying shoes? You probably guessed it, buying shoes that are too tight. We remind you that buying shoes that are even a bit too tight is a mistake. We understand the temptation, but shoes don't usually stretch- so if they are too small today, they will probably be too small tomorrow too. It's true that soft leather and suede give slightly, moulding to your foot, but they will not dramatically increase in width or length. And remember, due to a variety of reasons, your shoe size changes slightly throughout your life- so just because you've "always" worn a size 38, doesn't mean you still do.

Know your Foot type..

Take this simple test and know your foot type..


1) Pour a thin layer of water into a shallow pan


Wet Test
2) Wet the sole of your foot.



Wet Test
3) Step onto a shopping bag or a blank piece of heavy paper.




Wet Test
4) Step off and look down

Normal (medium) Arch
Wet TestIf you see about half of your arch, you have the most common foot type and are considered a normal pronator. Contrary to popular belief, pronation is a good thing. When the arch collapses inward, this "pronation" absorbs shock. As a normal pronator, you can wear just about any shoe, but may be best suited to a stability shoe that provides moderate arch support (or medial stability). Lightweight runners with normal arches may prefer neutral-cushioned shoes without any added support, or even a performance-training shoe that offers some support but less heft, for a faster feel.

Flat (low) Arch

Wet TestIf you see almost your entire footprint, you have a flat foot, which means you're probably an overpronator. That is, a micro-second after footstrike, your arch collapses inward too much, resulting in excessive foot motion and increasing your risk of injuries. You need either stability shoes, which employ devices such as dual-density midsoles and supportive "posts" to reduce pronation and are best for mild to moderate overpronators, or motion-control shoes, which have firmer support devices and are best for severe overpronators, as well as tall, heavy (over 165 pounds), or bow-legged runners.

High Arch

Wet TestIf you see just your heel, the ball of your foot, and a thin line on the outside of your foot, you have a high arch, the least common foot type. This means you're likely an underpronator, or supinator, which can result in too much shock traveling up your legs, since your arch doesn't collapse enough to absorb it. Underpronators are best suited to neutral-cushioned shoes because they need a softer midsole to encourage pronation. It's vital that an underpronator's shoes have no added stability devices to reduce or control pronation, the way a stability or motion-control shoe would.
