In a fix about the best shoe choice this monsoon? We’re here with super easy tips that’ll make it super-easy sailing!
Sole Matters
Always make sure the sole of your shoe can deliver a good grip when you walk. Wet surfaces can get super tricky, so avoid smooth soles that do not have any roughage. Rubber soles are a great option and will avoid any slippage while being water-resistant.
Water Resistance
Opt for shoes made of waterproof or water-resistant materials like cork, rubber or recycled PU. Any non-water-resistant shoes like canvas, leather and suede are bound to get damaged with rain water and are even more difficult to clean out.
Avoid Synthetic Socks
Use socks made of natural materials like cotton. Given the humidity and possibility of getting drenched, a fabric like cotton will not only dry quicker but will also be breathable. Synthetic materials can get irritable when in contact with water.
Air It Out
Always let your shoes air out when you’re back home. This will help get rid of any water or smell and will be ready for you to sport the next day. You can also spray on a vinegar and water solution to get rid of any odour more efficiently.
Keep It Open
While rain boots are super-efficient in keeping your feet dry and away from any rainwater, they may not be the most practical choice. In this case, opt for open waterproof sandals as opposed to a closed shoe that’s not waterproof. The open sandal will dry faster if drenched and are also easier to clean after a long day in the rains.
We hope these monsoon shoe tips will help you make the right shoe choice for you!
