Selection Tips
When choosing a pair of shoes from a brand's assortment, you should focus on a few key points.
Type, material and color
The right model must match the season and style of clothing. For summer, lightweight fabric or leather products with perforation are usually chosen. The sneakers can be supplemented with mesh inserts to allow the skin to breathe. Also, in the warm season, slip-ons, moccasins, sneakers are worn.
For spring, autumn and winter, dark shoes are more suitable in terms of practicality, although if you are traveling by car, you can complement your off-season wardrobe with snow-white sneakers. Nevertheless, it is better to choose a material that is moisture resistant.
An important factor in the choice is where you will wear your shoes. Today, sneakers are boldly combined with business suits, but this option is only suitable for informal outfits. It is not worth going to business negotiations in this form.Such shoes will not fit the image with a briefcase and tie.
In this case, it is better to give preference to something more elegant and traditional.
If there is no strict dress code at your work, you can choose any options, making stylish outfits. The main thing to remember is that classic shoes limit the choice of clothing. But sports and casual models are almost universal.
The size
Shoes should fit perfectly. This is not only a matter of convenience, but also a health requirement. The Prada size chart may not meet Russian standards. Therefore, when shopping over the Internet, you should be guided by the table that is attached to each product. In a retail store, you can consult with the seller and try on shoes.
It is recommended to take winter boots and sneakers one size larger because of the thick fur that acts as a heater. Also in this case, a small free space will create an air cushion that provides additional protection from the cold.
