Check the size chart: One of the most crucial aspects of buying footwear online is determining the size. Therefore, it is very essential to measure the foot and follow the size guide that every online shopping website offer.
Measurement of feet: It is of utmost importance to take the correct measurement of your feet before online shopping. It is observed mostly one foot is larger than the other, so measuring the larger foot is recommended. This way you won’t get stuck with a pair of ill-fitting, painful shoes that you won’t wear.
Size variation with different footwear: It is imperative to measure your feet with socks which will increase the size by half an inch while buying sneaker. When you are trying on winter boots, make sure you have thick socks that you would probably wear with the boots during winters. Socks can make a big difference in sizing.
Opt for the safer brands: Over the time mostly people become loyal to few brands and rely on their comfort and quality. Ideally experimenting with different brands and styles is always a good idea.
Inconsistent sizing within the same brand: Most brands, especially Indian brands, do not have consistent sizing based on standard body sizes. You may fit into a size S of one style of the brand and size M of another style of the same brand. It is crucial for one to understand the sizing algorithm of that particular brand before making a purchase.
Conflict in sizes between the chart and actual product: The size charts published for every garment in online stores are not consistent with ‘actual’ product size. Many products have incorrect size chart.
