Problem with flats


Question Posted Wednesday April 13 2011, 6:11 pm

I usually wear flats quite a bit, but they seem to wear out so quickly! I wear them with bare feet, thin socks, and pantyhose, but it always seems that the insides get a lot of marks from my feet and look beat up. Does this happen to other girls and do you have any methods of making this not happen as much? They also make my feet really smelly depending on what I wear on my feet too lol

Flats do wear out easier, because they are typically thinner and more cheaply made then say a sneaker. I find that you also put more pressure on them then you would another shoe, because sneakers have more padding.

Investing in a good brand might help you extend the life of your flats. Tory Burch is famous for her comfortable but stylish flats, but they are on the expensive side.

Rubber bottoms will typically hold up longer. Look at the material of the shoe. The thicker it is the longer it will last.

You can try putting in your own inserts (like Dr. Scholls) which will absorb some of the pressure and make your feet more comfortable!

You could try sprinkling some baby powder in there to absorb some of the sweat to kind of kill the smell.

Good luck,

-Abby

there's sole inserts made my dr. scholls. use those. they help keep the shape of the shoe. as for not making them look beat up.. well thats just on you. You should take care of your shoes better. The minute you start to see your shoes getting dirty, its your responsibility to clean them and take care of them. If you don't clean them, then they will look beat up. So thats just your fault.

As for smelly feet, its because the shoes are dirty.. clean your shoes and clean your feet.. then they wont smell.

Also it could be because your shoes are too tight. Make sure you get some shoes that allow air flow. I know it seems weird to get air flow because then the bad smell will flow out and people will be able to smell them more.. but thats false. If you have more air flow in your shoes, then your feet don't sweat as much. And when your feet don't sweat, they won't smell. You can also put baby powder in your shoes. It absorbs the sweat and keeps them feeling clean and fresh. Or febreeze them.
