Blog Post 3: Choosing the Right Footwear: Tips From a Podiatrist

The right shoes are critical — not just for comfort, but for preventing foot problems down the line.

Here’s what to look for when picking out footwear:

1. Proper Fit

Always have your feet measured, even as an adult. Your shoe size can change over time.

2. Good Arch Support

This is essential, especially if you have flat feet or high arches.

3. Adequate Toe Room

Your toes should be able to move freely. Avoid shoes that squeeze or cramp.

4. Low to Moderate Heels

High heels can cause a range of issues, including bunions and back pain.

5. Quality Materials

Breathable, flexible materials help prevent fungal infections and keep your feet healthy.

Pro Tip: Replace your shoes regularly — worn-out soles can lead to imbalances and injuries.
