Wearing stockings, is there a good way to stop your feet from sliding around in your shoes? I don't usually wear any leg coverings because my whole body is almost completely hairless. Today I was playing and noticed that my feet were sliding round in my shoes.

Stocking Hold ups.

I'm using a RAGO open bottom girdle to secure my stockings and I've had so much fun that I think I might buy an over the breast RAGO. Such fun. When the weather cools somat, I may go seriously out and about.

New shoes?

It probably isn't thought about much but one's feet do change in size depending on circumstances.

Don't overlook the difference that socks can make either. Even a thin pair of real socks will take up more room than a pair of pop-socks.

I have noticed that, over the years, my own feet can change depending how much walking I do. As I have gotten older and walk less my feet have, indeed, shrunk slightly but this has mostly been offset (in my case) by swelling as a result of oedema. Ageing has to make a difference too.

Gwen, it may be that the shoes you wear now are not the right size for you any more. It might be worth going and getting them measured, you might just need a narrower one than you have now or perhaps a half size shorter.

Stop your feet from sliding around in your shoes

[I]s there a good way to stop your feet from sliding around in your shoes?

There are a few options as I see them:

  • Do not use stockings. The thin nylon material they are made from actually makes the feet more slippery and promotes the feet to slide easier into your shoes and also sliding around in your shoes.
  • Use thicker socks, or multiple layers. Socks are a form of padding that fills the space between the foot and the shoe. Socks also have the benefit of absorbing sweat from the foot, and thus preventing it from soaking into the shoe itself.
  • Use shoes that are adjustable, either with lacing or with buckle (or Velcro) straps. Thus you can always adjust the shoe to fit snugly onto your feet. The disadvantage is that it takes longer to don and doff your shoes. But the huge advantage is that you will feel a lot more secure in your step.
  • Or, as others have suggested, get a smaller size shoe. The disadvantage is that you might suffer from painful pinching or other discomforts.

In my case I have problems with the fit of ballerinas, pumps, moccasins and similar slip-on shoes that when my toes fit comfortably the heels are way to loose and will not stay on. So I opt for Mary Jane style shoes where I can use the buckle strap to hold the shoe securely to my foot. For similar reasons I use lace-up boots instead of the so-called Chelsea boots.
