It’s amazing how we get used to wearing worn out shoes. Old shoes or maybe new shoes that you’ve worn into the ground in a short space of time feel so comfortable that you put up with inconveniences, such as no grip.

When you buy a new pair of shoes you are never one hundred percent sure that they won’t pinch or rub and give you a blister even if you buy a copy of the old shoes you love.

When you put on a new pair of shoes for the first time you instantly compare them with your old pair of shoes. New shoes always feel new, they feel tighter, the leather seems harder, the sole feels thicker even the colour is different.

What can we do? The answer is easy; don’t leave it so long before buying a new pair of shoes. Have more than one pair of shoes on the go at a time and add to your collection on a regular basis. This way you’ll never get too attached to any one particular pair of shoes.

Replace shoes before they become worn out. If you have a pair of Crocs for example before they wear out buy another pair and use the older pair for the beach and the new pair for walking about in.

By being attached to a particular pair of shoes limits you the freedom that you deserve. There are thousands of women’s and men’s shoes available to you to buy and enjoy. No one should limit themselves to one or two pair of shoes because they feel so comfortable. Worn out shoes should be thrown away or recycled. Worn out shoes could hurt you if the tread is worn out you could slip, if the leather is too soft they won’t be giving you support. Always wear shoes that are fit for purpose especially if they are work shoes.

Shoes say a lot about you. If you wear shoes that look good, you will look good and feel good. By buying new shoes and having the choice of wearing different pairs of shoes gives you a feeling of freedom and a confidence that you are not reliant on any one thing.
