Cute Hiking Sandals for Wide Feet
Authored by Adam Sherman
Wearing the right size shoes is important to your overall well-being. If you are wearing the wrong size sandals, you might actually be injuring your feet all day long as you walk around. Cold weather or walking habits can make your feet wider than average, leading to difficulty in finding comfortable shoes.
Sometimes sandals can be very hard to fit if you do not have narrow feet. There are many challenges to creating shoes that fit all sizes of feet, and sandals can be the hardest kind of shoe to fit if you have wider-than-average feet. Kristina Stanković et al found in their study that the personal characteristics of sex, age, BMI, frequency of sport activity, and shoe size, all significantly influence the shape of the foot. This is why a well-fitting shoe is critical to foot health.
If you want to know which wide-width sandals are the right ones for your needs and comfort, read on for some suggestions to make sure that you can wear your favorite cute sport sandals in comfort!
What Influences Foot Width?
There are many factors that influence foot width. You might be taller than average, or you could be very active. People who walk or run frequently often have wider feet than those who do not. The shape of your arches and other parts of your feet are genetically influenced and these can affect foot width as well.
Sometimes wearing improper footwear can also cause your feet to change shape. While it can be tempting to keep wearing a cute shoe when it is hurting your feet, you should avoid doing this and get shoes that are the right size shoe for your needs.
Some health conditions and other physical changes can also cause your feet to widen. For example, pregnancy can relax the ligaments and joints in your feet and make them spread out. Swelling can also greatly affect your foot size.
How to Measure Your Feet Properly When Looking for Wide Width Sandals
Many people are not aware of the right way to measure their feet. You might not even have wider-than-average feet. You might just be measuring your feet incorrectly.
- Trace Your Foot: Put a piece of paper on the ground and set your foot down on it. Trace carefully and slowly around your foot. It will be much easier to measure your foot size with this tracing. Make sure that you have traced your foot accurately by placing your foot back over the tracing and checking that it is correct.
- Get Out a Measuring Tape: Measure this outline from the heel to the point of the longest toe and write that number down. You may want to check this measurement twice.
- Measure Foot Width: Wrap the tape around the widest part of your foot just across the ball of the foot. Make sure the tape is lined up with your toe joint. Write this measurement down.
- Check the Measurements: You can check these measurements against the sizing guide for the shoes that you want to buy and you will be able to make sure that you get the exact right fit from your new sandals! No more guessing and ordering the wrong sizes!
