Quick guide to choosing a new pair of sneakers
Sneakers are probably the most important items in a sports
wardrobe. As interesting as it may be, you can't jog in the same
shoes you go to the office.
It's important to have at least one pair of sneakers handy each
time you go out. Whether you plan going to the woods with friend
or family, or simply you go to the local shop to buy something
for the house, they are the first choice since they are light
and very easy to put on.
How to decide which ones are for you?
That's a simple task. Look for models that you really believe
would look good on you. Once you have several pairs that you
like, take a closer look at each of them. See if they are of
quality, what material are they made of, the way the sole is
glued.
Will they endure the kind of stress you are planning to make
them have? If not, take them off the list. There's no point in
buying a pair of sneakers that will break after two weeks of use.
Next, consider if they will fit with the other clothes in your
wardrobe. Usually, sneakers go well with most jeans and other
casual pants. However, if you think you can wear sneakers with
your business meeting suit, stop doing that! Drop it off your
mind! There is no way you can wear sneakers with official
clothes. Unless you deliberately want to shock people.
Once you've taken care of the above steps, all you need to do
now is to know the best size. For that, it's best to go to a
local shop and try a couple of sneakers and see what the size in
which you feel comfortable is. You can also look at your current
shoes, but if you feel a bit discomfort, it's ok to get a bigger
size. Also, note that the sneakers you already own have passed
trough the stretching phase, so their size might be a bit
different.
Now that you know what to look for, it's time to get yourself a
good pair of sneakers.
