Everyone's foot structure is different and choosing the right shoes starts with finding a model that suits your foot type. Your foot shape affects not only your comfort, but also the long-term durability of your shoes and your foot health. Choosing the wrong shoes can lead to calluses, pain and deformities. So, how can you choose the best shoes for your foot type? Here is our guide to choosing shoes for every foot type:
Flat Feet (Pes Planus)
In people with flat feet, the entire surface of the foot touches the ground because the arch of the foot does not rise high enough. This can cause pain when standing for a long time.
What kind of shoes to choose?
Orthopedic shoes that provide arch support.
Models with cushioned soles and light heels.
Sneakers with flexible and sturdy soles.
Things to Consider: Hard-soled shoes are not suitable for people with flat feet. Avoid models that do not support the arch of the foot.
High arch of the foot
People with high arches place more weight on the toes and heel. This can lead to instability and rapid fatigue.
What kind of shoes to choose?
Shoes with soft soles and cushioning support.
Sports shoes that provide stability.
Models with lightly padded insole for daily use.
Things to Consider: Avoid shoes with thin and flat soles. Shoes that do not support a high arch can negatively affect your foot health.
Wide Feet
Wide feet can be trapped in narrow-molded shoes, causing discomfort and foot deformities.
What kind of shoes to choose?
Shoes with a wide fit or extra wide options.
Lace-up or flexible models ensure a snug fit.
Shoes made of materials that do not squeeze the foot, such as leather or elastic fabric.
Things to Consider: Avoid models with narrow toes. Choose flexible designs that are comfortable for your wide feet.
Narrow Feet
For people with narrow feet, standard shoe models can often be too big for the foot and this can cause the foot to slip in the shoe.
What kind of shoes to choose?
Models with laces or straps keep the foot stable.
Narrow molded or adjustable designs.
Extra internal support or insoles can be added.
Things to Consider: Avoid wide models, as they can slip inside your foot and cause discomfort.
Hammer Toe and Bunion Problems
People with foot problems such as hammertoes or bunions should choose wide and comfortable shoes. In these cases, choosing the wrong shoes can increase pain.
What kind of shoes to choose?
Models with wide toes and models that do not squeeze the front part of the foot.
Shoes with orthopedic support.
Shoes made of soft materials.
Things to be Considered: Shoes with pointed toes and shoes made of hard materials are not suitable for this type of foot.
Hallux Valgus (Thumb Protrusion)
Shoes that provide comfort and support are critical for people with protruding thumbs.
What kind of shoes to choose?
Models with wide and rounded toes.
Shoes made of soft leather or textile materials.
Models that provide extra sole support.
Things to Watch Out For: Shoes with pointed toes or narrow molds can increase this problem.
Normal Foot Structure
If you have a normal foot structure, you can choose many shoe models. However, wearing shoes that are not suitable for your foot structure can cause problems in the long run.
What kind of shoes to choose?
Models that are comfortable, breathable and offer cushioning support.
Shoes with flexible soles for everyday wear.
Things to Consider: Although you have a normal foot structure, you should not compromise on quality and comfort when choosing shoes.
General Tips for Choosing Shoes
Try them on in the evening: Feet can swell slightly at the end of the day, so try on shoes in the evening.
The right size: Choose a size that fits your feet comfortably and does not pinch your toes.
Flexibility and Material: Make sure your shoes have a flexible structure and quality material.
Design and Functionality: Give importance to functionality as well as elegance.
