Millions of aging boomers, have worn and loved stilettos their entire lives. However, some of us can’t endure the pain any longer, hence we’re looking for dowdy alternatives. There’s a huge opportunity for shoe companies to serve consumers who are starved for less pain and more and more pizzazz below the ankle.
Below Are Some Remedy To Painful Shoes:
Consider Flat shoes
Many of us think we need a little more heel and a little more punch to draw attention away from our aging calves, knees and whatever else isn’t quite as perky as it used to be. The key is to avoid flats with a toe box that’s too narrow, those that lack arch support, or have exposed seams inside that rub and cause blisters.
Buy Good Brands when it comes to footwears/shoes
Brands historically known for comfortable functional footwear include Ecco, Birkenstock, Mephisto, Born and Clarks. Recently, these brands have recognized the opportunity in the market and have also gone out of their way to develop more stylish, elegant and sophisticated choices without compromising comfort.
Shop For Your Footwears Online
Internet shoe stores such as Zappos and Endless, have opened new worlds. Both allow shoppers to review the comments left by other buyers as to how shoes fit and whether they are comfortable. The key to making these comments useful is to look at the age of the commenter. I am not interested when a 24-year-old says she wore the shoes right out of the box and danced all night, but when a 58-year-old says she wore the shoe, pain-free all day, then it is more recommended. Another advantage of shopping online is that you can try on shoes in the comfort of your own home without pressure from a hovering salesperson. The best time to do this is at the end of a long day, when your feet are tired and swollen.
Make Choices of shoes That Are Closer To The Ground
When in doubt, step away from the boxes and make choices closer to the ground. We always focus on stylish and comfortable footwear to fill the void in your closets.
Buy From Stuart Weitzman
Stuart Weitzman is one of the brands of choice for fashionable aging baby boomers. The company uses a softer tanning process for the upper part of the shoe and flexible soles, which allows them to make even higher heels tolerable. Weitzman design beautiful sexy shoes for women of all ages and also pays attention to comfort, especially for older women.
Dansko Shoes
Dansko brand makes the most reliable and comfortable shoes, Toomey says. These are the shoe of choice for those on their feet all day, including doctors, nurses, cashiers and food service workers, who appreciate the anatomically contoured and cushioned footbed, arch support and shock absorption, with just enough style.
