Don't Fall This Fall
Posted by Carlene Ganbriel on 4th Apr 2016
Autumn is a great time of year to check your footwear as we head into the cooler, wetter months. Even the best shoes can't do their job if the soles are worn. There should be enough tread for your shoes to grip the surface you're walking on.
Shoes need to be able to be adjusted to fit your feet properly, the simplicity and ease of velcro is ideal but laces are better than slip on shoes. Your toes are working away just to keep the shoe on your foot without that proper adjustment, years of clinging onto your slip ons may lead to 'claw toes' which in turn can lead to corns on the top of your knuckles. Its important to find the right width without purchasing shoes that are too long, this overhang at the front of your shoes is a 'trip' waiting to happen.
Its been well documented the world over that the correct footwear plays a major role in preventing falls.
