especially hard surfaces common in Naples Naples Daily News,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
You put on your favorite pair of dress shoes, the expensive ones you've loved for years,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but they're no longer comfortable. Unlike a pair of jeans, which can shrink in the dryer,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], what has happened to your shoes? Or your feet? And, what can you do about it?
Bart Joyce, manager of Snyderman's Shoes in North Naples, says there are several reasons shoes may no longer fit.
Aside from injury and pregnancy, one of the main reasons is that people's feet flatten out over time is from walking on hard tile floors placed on top of concrete, which lacks flexibility found in carpeted floors up north. Being barefoot or in flat sandals instead of closed-toe shoes also puts pressure on feet and causes them to flatten, he says.
Feet also change throughout your life, Joyce says,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and people should expect to wear different sizes as they get older.
Snyderman's specializes in support class shoes, especially for runners and other athletes. They also receive referrals from podiatrists whose patients have plantar fasciitis - pain caused by inflammation of the thick tissue on the bottom of the foot from heel to toe - or Morton's neuroma - pain on the bottom of the foot usually between toes.
Wearing shoes with arch supports will reduce the strain. The store carries brands such as Naot, New Balance and Teva, a wide selection of sandals that provide arch support,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as well as ankle and knee braces, insoles and arch cushions.
But a main draw to the store has been Landon Taylor, a licensed pedorthist who makes custom orthotics to place inside shoes. Snyderman's has sold them for the past 12 years.
Taylor helped approximately 500 customers last year, most of them affected by plantar fasciitis. He takes a high-tech digital mold of a customer's foot, places the image in a computer graphics software program, and then mills a mold to the contour of each foot. The insert is made of EVA, a high density foam rubber that is shock absorbent. The process takes about two weeks.
"Most people don't get just one pair," he says, "They get four or five,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], because they are affordable, and put them in several shoes." The orthotics can last for 10 years, but he cautions that "the foundation of any orthotic is you have to put it in a good pair of shoes. Don't put it in a cheap shoe and expect it to work."
And adds, "There is 'fashion' expensive and 'function' expensive. The fashion expensive shoe might last you a year, but it will always hurt. The function shoe will be super comfortable."
Once you have a comfortable pair of shoes, Silvio Palomba, cobbler and longtime owner of Silvio's Shoe Repair in Downtown Naples,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], can help you keep it.
Palomba says if shoes are too tight, he can stretch them, and if they are too big, he has items such as tongue pads and grippers to make the foot snug.
The only times he cannot help is if a shoe is made of synthetic or if the top of a shoe is poorly constructed.
Most repairs involve shortening straps,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], replacing elastics,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], gluing, stitching or replacing heels.
"If you have good shoes, it's worth spending the money to fix them," he says. "Don't throw away a $100 shoe when a $5 strap can fix it."
With so many consignment shops in Naples,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Palomba sees customers who find high-end shoes at a bargain price and invest in a few repairs to customize the shoe to their feet.
