Shoes Everywhere!Written by David Kunstek
People who believe shoes are shoes are mistaken. The comfort and support that shoe offers is important. In fact, wearing improper shoes can cause more then just sore toes. Wearing a shoe that does not support or that is wrong size can cause back pain and even spinal injury. The discomfort in actually foot is minimal compared to serious back pain it can lead to. Having a properly fitting shoe does not mean that you have to choose a shoe that ugly. There are many choices for you in department stores, malls, shoe shops, and more. Trying on shoe prior to buying it is important. Making sure toes are not too tight but that back fits properly are important parts. Is there support for arch? If you are going to use shoe for specific reasons, you will need a specific shoe? For example, hiking boots are necessary when hiking. Their high tops help to support ankles on difficult ground. If you work in a restaurant, you may want to choose a shoe that is slip resistant.
