The monsoon has hit Kerala a few days ago and though it has not progressed much many locales are experiencing pre-monsoon showers recently. The sun is too hot for in the daytime and any thundery development towards the afternoon or evening makes life difficult. Walking outdoors after a bout of heavy rain can easily spoil our shoes.
There is a problem of plenty because pre-monsoon showers bring along muggy Weather and create havoc for shoes stored in our closet as Fungi sets on the outers making the shoes smelly. This is especially true for leather shoes. Though this condition can be easily corrected it needs some work. We will see how it can be done later but for now we tell you more about buying shoes that are apt for muggy weather.
The best shoes those are apt for muggy weather
At aqualite, we know how to design shoes that work well in hot & humid weather. There are certain qualities which everyone should look for, and we list them below for your convenience. Rest assured these features make them the best shoes for muggy weather.
Buy shoes that have some kind of a mesh on the upper side that allow air to pass through and escape as you walk. This passing air keeps away the moist air from being trapped in the insides. Even if you walk out in hot weather, your feet will remain much cooler. This will prevent any sweat from forming on the insides and thus saving your feet from blisters.
Next, choose colours which are light so that the shoes reflect the heat and light both, keeping your footwear comfortable. Moreover light coloured footwear is much appreciated at all locations and they also up your dressing sense and style. For instance the LDS-1512 is the one which is much loved shoe which sells in big numbers. Just look and browse around all you will surely be amazed at the sheer number of stylish shoes we manufacture. By the way, this shoe also has slits that allow the air to pass from different positions.
Further, pick a shoe which has a slightly heavy and thick bottom which has twin benefits. And mind you, both these benefits weigh heavily for your feet and body welfare.
- When walking on hot roads, the heat takes much time before reaching your feet. You will seldom need to stop in shade to cool off.
- After a downpour even if you accidentally step on wet mud slush, you can count on your shoes to keep your balance and not slip.
Lastly, choose shoes that have synthetic and quick drying liners. In case the shoes get wet, they can easily be dried. To save the situation you can always remove socks and put the shoes back so that while moving the pumped air helps the shoe dry out quickly.
How to Care for your shoes in Muggy and Rainy Weather
Unfortunately, humidity causes unpleasant odours to linger in shoes. You can always reduce this problem by airing your shoes out before you store them away. Prepare some muslin cloth pouches filled with charcoal pieces and place them in your shoes. Charcoal helps to absorb odours and moisture so your shoes won’t smell musty when you next wear them. For heavy humidity, place charcoal in newspaper balls as they also work as good absorbents.
For leather shoes, especially if you have not worn for days, simple cleaning the outer rids them of moisture. Else you can always polish them with regular wax polish and they will keep like new now.
Conclusion
Muggy weather troubles us all and shoes get affected too. Managing this weather is not tricky if some basic precautions are observed. Buying rainy weather compliant shoes and taking good care of footwear goes a long way for a trouble free rainy season.
