The Importance of a Good Fit in Leather Shoes

Choosing the right size and fit of leather footwear is essential to ensure comfort, style, and durability. Especially when investing in premium leather sandals with arch support. Poorly fitting shoes may result in inconvenience and may lead to foot errors and even ruin the leather in the long run.

Shopping for leather sandals, boots, or casual shoes can be an assured purchase, as long as you know how to measure your feet, how to use size charts, and how to compare sizes between brands.

Leather is a natural product that will slightly shape to your feet with time; however, the boot has to fit accurately in the first place. Ill-fitting shoes (too tight) can result in blisters, bunions, or poor blood circulation, while shoes that are too loose might result in instability and friction injuries.

In the case of leather sandals and arch support, fit is even more important, as the correct positioning of the arch can affect general posture and the health of the feet.

1. Begins With the Peach Flores Size Chart

At Peach Flores, we know that the sizing can largely differ up to the brands. That is why we have a standardized size chart that covers US, UK, and Euro sizes and foot length in millimeters. This detailed chart will assist you in removing the doubts, and you will get a fair notion about which size will suit your feet perfectly.

2. Take the Right Foot Measurement

The measurement is important in achieving the right fit. Stand on a piece of paper, heel against a wall, have the tip of your longest toe marked, and measure the distance; that will be your foot length. Get both feet measured and use the bigger one. 

Then measure the widest area of your foot by encircling it with a tape measure to obtain the width and instep. This is necessary in the choosing of Peach Flores sandals, particularly those that have straps that can be adjusted to provide a personal fit.

3. Compare Between Brands

Shoe sizes tend to vary with different brands, and you should never expect that your regular size will fit everywhere. As an example, you could be a UK 6 in one brand and a UK 7 at Peach Flores. 

Always compare your regular size with our size chart and look at your foot length in millimeters. In the case of luxury shoes such as high-quality leather sandals with arch support, the accuracy is crucial to maximum comfort, support, and long-term foot health.

4. Learn Leather-Natural Stretch

Leather is flexible, and it molds to the shape of your feet after some use. When you first get a new pair of sandals, they might FIT tight, but they will eventually mold to your foot. This does not, however, imply that you should go down a size. 

Your sandals are supposed to be comfortable right out of the gate. It is recommended to size up in case you are between sizes or your feet are wide. Our leather sandals have arch support inside, and they give you the best fit.

5. Adjustable Styles

Peach Flores sandals can have adjustable buckles or Velcro fastening, so if you have never worn them before, it is better to start with such models. The fit can be customized in these designs; thus, they are perfect when you are a first-time buyer or have an unusual foot shape. 

Adjustable sandals can be particularly useful when your feet swell during the day or after a lot of walking. They offer the flexibility you want without sacrificing style or support, making these styles a smart way to start your footwear journey.

6. Think about Your Shoe Requirements

Consider the place and occasion of wear of your sandals. You will need great support and an accurate fit whether you are travelling, running errands around town, or standing on your feet all day. Arch support leather sandals are designed to provide all-day comfort and stability. 

You may have foot fatigue, flat feet, or extra arch support needs; whatever the case, always get a fit that is snug yet not restrictive and one that cradles your foot and gives you all-day comfort with each step.

7. Ask a Question When in Doubt

Choosing the right fit might be puzzling at times, more so when changing brands. This is the reason that our support staff at Peach Flores is there to assist you. Submit your foot length, width, and fit in other brands, and we will suggest the best-fitting option to you. 

It is our mission to ensure that your shopping experience with us is hitch-free, enjoyable, and accurate. Through a customized shop, you will easily settle on a pair of sandals that match style, comfort, and suitability to your feet size.
