As a healthcare or medical professional, you recognize the importance to your career and lifestyle when it comes to your footwear. The footwear you choose has to be the 'right' choice for you. One pair of shoes is not going to fit everyone. When purchasing Spring Step shoes there are a few tips and suggestions to insure you get the right fit.

When choosing Spring Step shoes for your own career or occupation, you will find that getting the appropriate piece of footwear the first time is easy by following this checklist.

1. Only purchase footwear when you are at your 'normal' body size. If you are bloated or retaining water, chances are good the footwear that fits perfectly in the store will not fit once you are no longer retaining water.

2. Wear or bring hosiery or stockings you would wear to your workplace. Regardless of the type of hosiery or stockings you wear to work, you will find you get a better fit by bringing a set of that hosiery to try on your new Spring Step shoes.

3. Measure your feet with the neat little metal foot ruler available at the majority of shoe stores. Measuring your feet is an important part of your decision. When you know your size, you will be guaranteed a better fit. Do not assume you are the same shoe size you were 10 years ago and 10 pounds earlier. If you have problems with measuring your own feet, ask for assistance from customer service.

4. Know your foot size on both feet separately. The majority of people do have two different feet sizes. Insure you recognize your shoe size for each foot.

5. Recognize your feet size in a multitude of countries. Not everyone uses the same measurements as the United States. Know your foot size per inches lengthwise, widthwise, and heightwise.

6. Understand your requirements before investigating the possibilities. By knowing what is required, you will save time, money, and effort. You will be able to distinguish between what you want and what you need more easily.

7. Try both the prospective Spring Step shoes on. Many people only try on one piece of footwear assuming the other will fit if one does. Try on both shoes to insure a maximum fit.

8. Get up and walk around. While wearing both pieces of footwear, walk around. You should be able to comfortably walk for 5 minutes without experiencing discomfort. The old adage that your footwear needs 'broken in' does not hold truth. The footwear should fit appropriate and comfortably from the first step. If you are uncomfortable or your foot slides around within the shoe, you probably have the wrong size or style.

9. Check yourself out. If you are trying your Spring Step shoes on while in a storefront, you can try on that footwear on and walk to a mirror. How do you look in the mirror? Are you satisfied with your look?

By following this easy checklist, you will be able to get the right Spring Step shoes for your life and career. You will be comfortable saving yourself considerable time and money.
