The Wall Street Journal says shoe sizes change throughout adulthood. So it’s best to check your shoe size before you out and shop for new ones. If you’re looking for Men’s workout shoes, here are a few dos and don’ts to help you out:
Don’t
Don’t rely on your old foot size. If it’s been more than a year since you took your measurements and if you’ve gained weight over the past year or so, then it’s best to get your foot measured before you shop around. This should save you time and effort in trying to find the right pair.
Do
Check your foot size regularly. Do it once every year. If there are plenty of signs that you’ll need to retire your old shoes, then make sure you get those measurements down. That way, you’ll have a much better idea where to go for the shoes you need, giving you plenty of time to get new ones before it’s time for your old pair to retire.
Don’t
Different shoe brands have different sizes. Don’t count on brand A’s size 5 to be a match for brand B’s size 5. Check for fit every time you shop. If you’re getting them online, check the dimensions to make sure they’re the right ones for you. While you could certainly go for a refund or ask the shop for the right size, that’s going to take extra time and effort, one you shouldn’t have to. So get it right from the get-go.
Do
Don’t know how to get your foot size properly? Then hire a pro. That way, you won’t end up with the wrong figure. This is especially important if you’re planning on shopping for a pair online. With the proper measurements, you can shop for Men’s workout shoes easy and worry-free.
