So if you have been struggling with the thought of going sockless this summer here are some tips to help you get started and look your dapper best and spare the fairer sex and their wardrobe choices.
Tips You Need To Go Sockless:
- Get yourself the Right Size of Shoes
Wearing the right size of shoes is very important for feeling comfortable in any footwear whether you are wearing socks or not. It is surprising to know that so many men wear the wrong size of shoes. So if you are planning to go sockless first get yourself the right size of shoes in which you are comfortable to walk in.
- Take Care of your Feet
Stinky, embarrassing feet is an issue faced by many men. But instead of taking care of their feet men usually hide them under socks and shoes. However the first step towards going sockless is to start taking care of your feet. So guys if you are planning to sockless, make sure that your mankles are worthy of getting the sort of attention you are seeking.
- Opt for Breathable Fabrics
Different shoes are made from different fabrics. When planning to ditch your socks it is very important to pay some attention to the material and fabric of the footwear you are buying. Soft leather shoes are always a great option to realize that your feet are comfortable and free from blisters etc. Also, if you are planning to go sockless in a brand new pair of shoes, just don’t. Breaking in a pair of new shoes with socks is always recommended first to save your feet from blisters, cuts or getting swollen.
- Give your Shoes Some Break
Whether you are suffering from smelly feet or not, it is always advised to not wear the same pair of shoes two days in a row especially when going sockless. Let them dry for a day at least too kill germs and get rid of moisture etc.
- Opt for No-Show Socks
If you are still not comfortable wearing your shoes without socks, you can always opt for a pair of no-show socks. Try to get one in the same colour as that of your shoes for a seamless look and sockless feel.
Shoes You Can Wear Without Socks
