Three practical points

  1. Try the shoes with the socks you expect to wear and check for pinching or slipping.
  2. Walk a short distance in them rather than judging from a seated try-on.
  3. Ask about returns if buying online, and compare measurements with your own pair.

In the Philippines, contact your usual health center, pharmacist or appropriate clinician for individual advice. Service availability and fees vary; ask the provider directly.
