New Shoes = PAIN
-
this pair of shoes that's giving me prob ain't 2 sizes bigger.Originally posted by bluejuice:if 2 sizes bigger and u still feel tight, it probably means that the shoe is of the wrong size!! Perhaps you still need to go another size bigger or something.
Or, maybe wear those shoes for shorter period of time, then slowly lengthen the duration.. slowly ur feet should get used to it.. ? -
the problem is front 'giap' too tight and the back is loose? sometiimes flap around like slippers?
Think its a design flaw.
if you really likes those shoes a lot. Can i suggest you sew one 2 skin colour elastic bands near the ankle area? that should hold it the shoe to your ankle and wont rub on your skins too much.
And wear stockings.
if you dont want the elastic bands showing, wear the pair of shoes with pants only. -

try not to buy "size bigger" coz usually blisters come from the friction which rubs on the skin..
wear it a bit, to try to find the bits which are rubbing on your feet...
get candle and rub those parts in the shoe... do it vigourously to make that part smooth..
plasters are a good idea or actually, i'd use masking tape if they are not the ladies' type pretty shoes... if shoes where you have to wear socks, apply masking tape on the foot where the friction is greatest..
hopefully, it'll season out quickly... -
use candle to rub against it..

ya, that's waxing lor.Originally posted by xDD:use candle to rub against it.. -
waxing is only for leather shoes?
-
dun think so.Originally posted by xDD:waxing is only for leather shoes? -
my new shoes hurt too. what i do is i wear them, and get blisters. and let the blisters heal and wear them again. because after the blister heal, the skin there will get more seasoned what. or in other words, "thicker" or whatever you call it.

my new adidas shoes also bite me.. But i bite them before they bite me,but still got blisters... Then muz season the shoes lah... If u wear 1 hr,slowly extend to 1 and 1/2 hrs...

I noticed that shoes that are normally expensive are more comfortable to wear even when they are new.
Not as in expensive for their design, but expensive due to the durability of their material, which makes them good walking material. -
some friends told me tt it's like a custom for some chinese to bite e shoes when is newly bought as to prevent e shoe to 'bite' you which is e blisters.

Bite shoe?!?
First time hear of it.
One of my relatives owns something that can stretch shoe material when you put that thing into the shoe...something like what some cobblers have... -

opps...didnt know you couldnt find the earring holder...maybe i didnt explain clear enough..Originally posted by browniebaobao:oh well, it's ok lah.
last time one forumite told me Daiso got sell this earring holder..
i went IMM and PS also can't find..
ask their staff they also duno..
this is the earring holder rack that i was refering to:
i bought it at PS daiso last year, and can be found at the hardware section(quite near the gardening section). the hardware section is in a corner of the shop, and from the corner, it is in the 2nd or 3rd row of shelves. the racks are displayed at the bottom part of the shelves. you can buy the supports(just dig around that row of shelf, 2 sides of it) to make the rack stand, or just hang it on hooks.
ps: the items on the shelves are rather messy...be careful of an avalanche of their things falling.

anyway back to the topic, biting shoes doesnt help...it bit me back by giving me blisters...ma de.
i guess bite or no bite, if the shoes will give you blisters, it will, no matter you bite it or not. -
