I Break in barefoot!
If you like dress shoes, I think you must have gasped now! what a hero!!
Why would I do that? Because I want to try out what brand of shoes are the most comfortable. This comfort does not mean the fit of the last, because it is too subjective, but the foot feeling brought by many production details.
Let’s give an example that everyone can understand, that is, the place of the screw bone, that is, the outside of the foot root, is it necessary to make this place lower, or even the lower the better, but many brands don’t pay attention. if screw bone is pressed, even if you wear socks, it hurts. If you don’t wear socks, you will break the skin within a hundred steps and then bleed.
Another example, Ray Kowk shoes are Goodyear construction, it has stitches on the forefoot of midsole. Its purpose is to make the canvas ribbon and the midsole more firmly connected. Even if the glue fails, it will be stable by the stitches. But it will affect the feeling of feet. If you wear socks, you won’t feel it most of the time, but if you don’t wear socks like me, you will find it right away.
I am doing the worst case experiment!
Can you recognize the oval mark on the heel? That’s my blood stain!
Because it’s not the first time I’ve worn this shoe, I’ve worn it several times, so it’s very strange to hurt my feet this time. The size is very suitable, it won’t slip, it won’t be squeezed too close, and there is no toe grinding in the forefoot. How can it hurt my heel? ?
When I took a closer look, it turned out that there was a seam in the lining skin here! Then the two ends of the inner lining skin were extruded a little higher, and my delicate jade foot was ruined.
I still need to wear dress shoes the next day, and I definitely dare not wear this pair. I put on thin socks and chose this pair.
As a result, it still hurts even with socks, and I feel that I have changed a pair of shoes when I come back.
The purpose of lining the heel with suede leather is very clear, to increase friction so as not to slip. I used to think it was a good design, but today it was a disaster.
Finally, I switched back to this pair, and finally it didn’t hurt. The smooth heel, the right size and the whole day was very comfortable.
This is actually a very small detail of the product, and for most people, it may not be noticed or experienced, but I will help you to experience all.
