A trip to the local high street is more than conclusive that the choice of womens shoes is dauntingly comprehensive, a trip to the shops with the other half can quickly descend into footwear Olympics. Us chaps are often unable to fathom the necessity for so many, yet are regularly reminded of reasons to the contrary. I find myself seeking a sport shoe, sturdy boot, a formal wear alternative and a final, positively amenable pair, willing to fulfill any duties called upon it.
The wedding shoe however, like most things for this most joyous of occasions, should be a special purchase. The shoes should answer all the questions asked of it on the day and also be of a perennial nature, allowing for a lavish pair to be justified as its longevity will far surpass the bridal shoe.
Remember shoe seekers, like the sock selection on the day, comfort is a must, most of the day will be spent in a vertical position, so break them in before the big day.
