DianaThe concept of plush shoes goes back hundreds of years. In the Middle Ages, soft-soled shoes were worn for comfort by those involved in sedentary indoor activities such as reading or embroidery. The shoes were often made with a soft fabric upper and pile lining to provide a cozy, comfortable fit. In more recent times, plush slippers have been seen in theater productions, too.
THE IMPORTANCE OF A PLUSH FIT
When it comes to feet, many men and women are tempted by a “perfect” fit. The first thing most people do when trying on a pair of shoes is to step down on them and feel the plush cushioning. Softness and padding are primary considerations when determining if the shoe is worth purchasing.
But getting a shoe that fits perfectly can be more of a challenge than it’s worth. While many factors contribute to foot pain, overly-tight footwear is often the cause. It doesn’t matter if you’re walking or sitting. Your feet will still hurt if you have shoes that are too tight for your feet. This can even lead to the development of bunions, which are normally caused by ill-fitting shoes.
PLUSH SOFTNESS
Today’s plush shoes are soft, comfortable, and fluffy. The perfect shoe for those who want to feel each step with every step they take. Better yet, these shoes feel great with or without socks. That’s because they are designed to be worn around the house as slippers or around the office as dress shoes. This also allows people who don’t want to wear socks at work to still get that plush feeling that they love so much.
THE BENEFITS OF PLUSH SOLES
There is a reason why people everywhere love those “comfort” shoes that have cushioned soles. Despite the attractive look of the soles, they are actually quite durable. Plush shoe soles offer a great deal of comfort to the wearer without adding any additional weight to the foot. They are also very easy to care for, as they can be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth.
THE COMFORT-UPS
Plush shoes are also fitted with padding throughout, including around the ankle and arch area. This is done so that your feet won’t experience any pain when walking or standing for extended periods of time.
Spreading your weight over a large surface area also helps reduce tension on foot. That makes these plush shoes great for people who have problems with their arch. Overall, the comfort-ups are great for anyone who has to stand or walk all day.
