Step 1
Try on shoes from the same brand before placing your order. Certain shoes are made differently; some are made too small and others are made too large. The size that you wear in flip flops may differ from the sizes that you wear in boots or sneakers. Generally, the only way to know if you are ordering the right size is to try shoes from the brand on beforehand.

Step 4
Purchase only from online retailers that have an exchange or refund policy. If you order the wrong size or do not find the shoes comfortable, you will want to be able to exchange them for a new pair or get a refund. Be sure to read the fine print before you order. Many online retailers will do everything in their power to avoid refunding your money.

Step 5
Read online reviews of the shoes that you are planning to order. In reviews, people will often say how much they liked the shoes, so you will be able to find out if they were comfortable for others. It is especially important to find out what other people think of the shoes if you have not yet tried them on.
