The Importance of Buying Quality Shoes

We've all experience aching feet, throbbing legs, and a sore back after a long day at work. What about the pain you feel after a day with your kids or on the golf course? It almost makes you want to stay inside.

What if I told you that all of this could change by simply finding a pair of shoes that fits your feet? For big and tall men, finding a good pair of shoes isn’t always easy. Finding big and tall footwear that will save your aching feet doesn’t have to be this difficult.

The first thing you need to do is shop at a big and tall menswear store. London’s Big and Tall store sells shoes up to size 16 extra wide in select styles.

Wearing shoes that are too narrow or short can put additional pressure on your feet and ultimately, put extra stress on your knees, hips, and back.

Most big and tall men tend to over-pronate when they walk. Simply put, this is an over rotation of your ankle and foot inwards collapsing your arch. If this issue isn’t resolved, it can lead to a number of ailments including knee pain, shin splints, tendinitis, and plantar fasciitis.

How can big and tall men deal with this? It’s easy. Buy a pair of shoes that fits. Big and tall footwear isn’t always cheap, but you’ll feel an instant difference in the way your body feels. Remember, the width of your shoe is just as important as length.

When purchasing big and tall footwear, you should be able to focus on comfort, without sacrificing style. The new line of big and tall footwear at London’s Big and Tall menswear is worth exploring.

As you browse the store, consider these tips for buying shoes that will make you look and feel good.

Rubber soles often provide more absorption and help reduce forces on your legs.

Owning more than one pair of shoes is a benefit. If you’re going to work and relaxing on the weekend in the same pair of shoes, they’ll likely deteriorate quickly and offer less support. Purchase an extra pair of shoes to spice up your wardrobe and to help save your feet. When you’re purchasing additional big and tall footwear, remember to mix up your colours. Having a pair of brown and a pair of black shoes will allow you to dress formally or casual, and these neutral colours will go with almost anything.

When you’re shopping for shoes, measure your feet later in the day. Your feet will swell as the day goes on and could affect the shoe size you require.

Quality shoes aren’t just for comfort, buying quality shoes makes you look better too. Craftsmanship shows when you’re looking at shoes. Remember guys, one of the first things a woman checks out on a man are his shoes. A new pair of shoes is a great way to spice up your wardrobe. Shoes can speak volumes about your attitude and personality, so if you buy quality shoes, it will give you a quality look.

Buying quality shoes doesn’t have to be difficult for big and tall men. London’s Big and Tall menswear has you covered with a diverse stock of quality big and tall footwear.
