How To Shop Online For Shoes by:Charlotte Bleasdale
So many people shop online these days rather than trawling the high street and battling the queues
, shopping from the comfort of your own home and even saving money makes online shopping one of the most popular ways to buy. However, buying online can sometimes bring up a few problems whether it's delivery, returns or the actual products, but if you're a savvy buyer than you'll be able to buy online successfully.More and more women are also buying clothes and shoes online, and while the problem of sizing issues in addition to those above can also arise, it's so easy to shop for shoes online than you think. As long as you keep the following points in your mind when buying, you'll be just fine.
Use size charts
If you're usually in between two sizes or if like many people you're different sizes in different types of shoes then you're best to check the sizing chart just to double check. Lots of websites now also offer various width fittings, so perhaps take a look at their sizing charts and measure your feet to see if you require a different width fitting; that way your new shoes will fit perfectly. Some women actually buy the shoes they want in two different sizes and send the other one back, so perhaps this is something you could consider if you're not too sure about the sizing.
Colour
It's not wise to buy shoes online if you're looking for a very specific shade because remember that everyone's monitor settings are different, so what may look the right colour on your computer may look completely different on someone else's. This isn't the website's fault; it's just a fact of life that everyone's settings are different, so take this into account if you're trying to match your shoes to your outfit.
Read details
Not every company will list a great deal of detail in their product descriptions, while others may not make it overly obvious, so if you're quite particular about certain aspects of your shoes you should always read the details or contact the company to double check. For example, if you're after leather shoes then make sure you read the details because imitation leather can often look like the real thing.
Delivery cost
Remember that when buying shoes online you're most likely going to have to pay extra to have them delivered and if you want next day delivery or a premium service then you're going to have to pay extra too. However, if the website you're buying from also has shops there maybe the option to collect in store, although this does defeat the object of shopping online. A good tip is to search online for some free delivery voucher codes before you place the order, it could save you that delivery cost.
Delivery times
Lots of women buy new shoes for special occasions like parties or weddings and therefore need to have those shoes by a certain date. If you're buying your shoes for a particular occasion then you should either buy well in advance or double check the delivery times before you order. There's nothing worse than finding the perfect shoes but them not arriving time for the big day. As well as checking the delivery time you should also make sure they are in stock at the time you order, as some online companies have different delivery times for different products.
Returns
Most companies should offer returns on the majority of products, which is vital with shoes because you run the risk of them not fitting properly when ordering online. That means you can try them on and if they're not right - whether it's the size, colour or style - you can simply send them back for a return or exchange. Remember, every company will have a returns policy and the most allow 14 days to return the products, so always double check their terms and conditions. And although lots offer free returns there are many companies where you will have to charge to return your items.
