Things To Consider

Here are some things to consider when you shop for gents’ wedding shoes:

  • Rituals

India is a land of diversity and this is reflected in marriage rituals and customs as well. Some rituals require a groom to be barefoot while some don’t. If you don’t have to remove your shoes, choose a jutti. It’s a classic and it will never go out of style. If you have to remove your shoes often, choose a chappal or a sandal.

  • Weather/Season

A summer wedding, especially outdoors, will have you sweating. It’s better to opt for open-toed shoes to keep cool. Meanwhile, a winter wedding will have you shivering, so go for a jutti (and add socks for extra comfort).

  • Outfit Colour

Lastly, your outfit colour determines the shoe. Most grooms prefer pastel shades for their sherwanis today, so colours like light tan, beige and cream will pair well.

 How To Break In New Shoes

Make sure you shop for your men’s wedding shoes well in advance! This gives you time to break them in.

However, rather than “breaking”, we suggest you “wear in” your shoes. The insoles need time to soften and mould around your feet so that they become comfy on your wedding day.

This won’t happen overnight, however. First, you need to buy well-fitting shoes. Ensure there’s breathing room when you first try them. If you feel pressure in the toe box, the shoes are too small. Second, choose good, high-quality shoes that will soften over time and maintain their strength.

In conclusion, there’s no special trick for comfortable wedding shoes for men. You have to give it time. The key is to wear them often. So, wear your shoes around the house or when you head out for errands.
