Keep Your Feet Warm and Stylish This Winter With Boots That Feel Good

Leather or suede? Ankle or knee-high? Grey or black? Boho-chic or cowboy-cool? With so many stylish boots this season how can you possibly choose the perfect pair?

The American Podiatric Medical Association has tips to help make your boot buying and wearing experience pain- free. Follow this podiatrist-approved advice and you’ll be comfortably wearing boots every day of the week!

Additional Foot-Friendly Tips

• Have feet measured, size can change throughout life! Keep in mind - your boot size may not fit the same in all styles and brands.

• Try boots on in the afternoon - feet tend to swell during the day. Buy for the larger foot - most feet are not the exact same size.

• Carry an insole when boot shopping in case a pair lack the proper arch support.

• Boots should feel comfortable when tried on in the store; there shouldn’t be a “break-in” period.

• A boot constructed of natural materials, like leather, will keep feet dry and comfortable during the winter months.

• Choose a boot with plenty of toe room, a firm heel counter and traction to ensure stability.
