High heels make your legs look longer while also beautifying the clothes you wear. However, these shoes sometimes cause problems! There are many high heels wearers who slip while walking, but this can actually be easily overcome. Learning how to find non-slip heels and repairing your shoes will help you stay safe while looking fashionable.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Buying the Right Heels
Step 1. Find out what size high heel is right for you
Most people wear different sizes of high heels than other shoes, so finding the right size can be difficult at times! Try on high heels that are half the size of your shoe and see if they fit comfortably on your feet.
- Try several brands of shoes to find the best fit. This will help you walk comfortably and easily so that your high heels don't slip.
- In addition, wearing shoes that don't fit well can lead to blisters, cramps, and a lack of leg support.
Step 2. Buy platform or wedge heels
Stilettos are beautiful, but much more difficult to walk on. Buying high heels or wedge heels with high soles will make your feet flat, making it easier for you to walk. This product will make your feet safer when you wear shoes!
If you still want to wear pointed heels, buy shoes with lower heels than usual
Step 3. Look for strappy shoes
Sometimes, the original shape of the shoe can prevent it from slipping. If you often have problems with your feet slipping out of your shoes, choose a product that can hold your feet in place. Ankle safety straps, T-shaped straps, and Marry Janes straps will help keep your feet in place.
Step 4. Choose shoes with closed toes
Over time, gravity and sweat can make your feet slip down. If you wear shoes with an open toe, your fingers can slide down so that they appear to pop out and leave a lot of space in the shoe! Buy shoes with closed toes to keep your toes inside the shoe.
Method 2 of 3: Taking Care of Feet
Step 1. Don't use moisturizers and skin care products on your feet
A person often slips because damp feet shift to the bottom of the shoe. If you regularly use foot moisturizer or foot mask, these products can increase the body's natural fluids and create a slippery layer of oil inside the shoes. Do not do foot care if you want to wear high heels.
Step 2. Sprinkle talcum powder on your feet
If your feet sweat a lot, try adding a light layer of talcum powder on the sole or inside of your shoes to dry them out. Be careful not to get the powder on the tops of your feet!
Step 3. Spray styling product onto feet
Before wearing high heels, spray a small amount of hair care product on your feet. Spray the product about 30 cm from your feet and focus on the areas under and next to your feet. This will help hold the shoe in place.
Some people find this method sticky and uncomfortable. Try this method at home first before using it for travel
Step 4. Put on short socks or stockings before putting on your shoes
Wearing a toe cap can prevent sweat and fluids from building up in your shoes. Buy short socks to absorb sweat. This product can also make the space in the shoe feel fuller so that your foot can be held up better. In winter, you can buy stockings that come with socks built in.
Method 3 of 3: Adjusting Shoes
Step 1. Line up the back of the shoe with double-sided tape
If your high heels keep slipping, try applying double-sided tape to the inside of the shoe. Make sure you take a roll of tape with you when you travel – pasted tape can loosen after a few hours.
Step 2. Add heel guards
There are many companies that make special safety foam made of foam to prevent shoes from slipping. This thing usually looks like a small crescent moon that can be attached to the inside of the back of a shoe. This product is usually very helpful if your shoes are just a little too big.
Step 3. Fill the toe of your shoe
If you're wearing closed-toed heels, try to tuck a tissue or patchwork into the toe to prevent your foot from sliding forward. Try this at home before wearing it for a trip – if your shoes are too full, your feet may blister or hurt.
Step 4. Insert the insole or patchwork into the bottom of the shoe
Try using an insole or patchwork that has been modified to the bottom of the shoe. Just buy a product that is almost the same size as your shoe size, then cut it according to the shoe dimensions. You can buy insoles at the supermarket or drugstore, but patchwork can only be purchased at a shoe store or tailor.
