  • Choosing the right winter shoes is very responsible thing. You should take into account many details not to make a mistake. Let’s see, what you should pay your attention to when choosing warm and reliable winter footwear.


    Sole


    The sole is an important component of reliable winter footwear. Pay attention to the material from which it is made (rubber, polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride - all of them are waterproof and sufficiently durable), and also it is worth considering its thickness. According to the standard, the thickness of the sole should be at least 1 centimeter. Thin outsole will freeze and hardly protect you in frosty weather.


    It is worth paying attention to the pattern of the sole. The more bulges, depressions and extruded patterns on the sole - the easier it will be for you to walk confidently on the ice. If you pay attention to branded winter shoes, for example, Sorel winter boots, you will notice that the sole has its individual pattern and it is the distinguishing sign of any well-known manufacturer.


    As a rule, it is easier for men to choose both summer and winter shoes. Men's fashion does not require any heels or platforms.


    Modern winter footwear pleases with its diversity. If you are used to walking on high heels - not a problem. Just look attentively at the heel - it must be stable and reliable, and it can not be plastic at all. Arrange the boots with a small check-put the shoes on a flat surface and press on the lift. If the heel "pulls back" - do not buy these boots, otherwise you will keep slipping and falling on the ice.


    As for the platform, it must be tightly adhered, there should be no adhesive residues on the joints, and threads should not protrude from the seams. In any case, the choice is yours. However, remember, it is better not to put on shoes with high heels on slippery roads and to protect yourself from falls and fractures.


    Fitting


    Do not buy shoes without fitting, especially winter shoes! Remember that there are no two identical pairs of shoes. Shoes of different manufacturers can differ significantly in size, therefore, by ordering on the Internet boots of its 8th size, in fact you can get the 6th.


    Try on both boots or shoes, walk around the store. You should be comfortable right away. Do not listen to a consultant who persuades you to take your shoes right away taking into account the fact that "the fur will fit your foot later and leather will stretch". This is the biggest misconception. Your foot should not be cramped in shoes, the thumb should not rest on the toe, and the bootleg should not squeeze the leg.


    It would be also a mistake to choose the shoes of a bigger size. When you wear these shoes, you will not feel uncomfortable. Boots of a bigger size can cause deformations of the feet. Choosing a winter footwear, put on a warm sock for fitting, because in the winter you will surely wear socks to warm your feet.


    Care


    Having bought a pair of men's boots from Sorel, be sure to purchase a set of care products for them. If you always keep your shoes clean, regularly refreshing them and replacing the worn-out heels in time, your shoes will serve you faithfully more than one winter.


    Now there is a huge number of products for the care of shoes - creams, paints, water repellent sprays, sponges for shine, etc. Remember that leather and suede shoes require completely different care and, accordingly, different means.


    In winter, shoes are most exposed to mechanical influences, so do not be surprised if the heel or socks get some scratches very quickly. Have your shoes fixed in time.


    We hope that our advice will help you choose reliable shoes, that will not let you down in the harsh winter cold!
