Has anyone ever made a pair of dance shoes by gluing suede onto the soles of tennis shoes?

I’ve found simple instructions for making dance shoes by gluing suede onto the bottom of a pair of shoes. I’ve never done this before and I want to know how effective it is and if there are any tips to doing it properly so as not to ruin a good pair of shoes. I’ll most likely use a pair of Puma tennis shoes, though I’m not sure what type of suede is best to use. Any suggestions?

Homie, I think you should buy a pair of dancing shoes if you have the money. If you don't, I understand (and so do the rest of middle-class Americans). If you don't, then perhaps save up for a pair you find?
Reply:no, i can't say that i've done that before. why don't you buy an actual pair dance shoes? your homemade ones probably won't be as effective. but if you HAVE to make your own, then i would suggest using flats..but pumas sound good too.
Reply:nope i dont dance i cheer and if i need dance shoes just buy them lol
Reply:um..*cough cough* i dont know if you should do that. i haven't done it before...if you think it would work, go for it. i personally wont cause i think dance shoes are lighter....and chances are, ull waste a pair of shoes. "o.o %26lt;srry%26gt;

How do i prevent creases in my tennis shoes???

I just bought some jordans and and some air force ones for school. I havent worn them yet. But when school starts i dont want them to have creases in them. What do to prevent creases in my tennis shoes??

How do i prevent creases in my tennis shoes???
You can go to footaction or champs and they have these things called forcefields that you put in the shoe that prevents creases and even helps take creases out of shoes. they cost 9.99 but well worth it. I have a pair of forces with them and they have no creases.
Reply:socks will work balled up in them when you're not wearing them. Or get a shoe tree. Really I think you are sweating the small stuff. They are going to get creases in them as soon as you start wearing them, there is no preventing that unless you don't arch your foot when you walk. But if you do that I'm PRETTY sure you are going to be made fun of,
Reply:You put socks in them at the bottom DUH! Everyone knows that one.

What's the best way to wash tennis shoes? Washing machine, or hands? Detergent or soap?

I have these tennis shoes that I wear all the time. I paid a lot of money for them, so I want them to look as good as possible. They're pretty dirty, and I want them to look as good as new as possible for as long as possible. So any and all honest help would be nice. Thanks for the help.

What's the best way to wash tennis shoes? Washing machine, or hands? Detergent or soap?
maybe saok em then machine wash em if they're really dirty
Reply:I have found that the washing machine works just fine, but do not put them in the dryer they can shrink them and after awhile it will start to pull the rubber sole away from the leather. If they are white you can try a toothbrush and some bleach.
Reply:if your shoes are white and you want them to shine like theyre brand new, a good trick is the new clorox bleach pen, it works wonders on my kids shoes. also a toothbrush with a bowl of soapy water helps clean shoes without destroying them. best of luck!
Reply:depends on fabric: leather or canvas, good luck !!
Reply:Depends on what kind of shoes they are really. What kind are they? Are the black? If so hand wash them, if not use the washing machine. But usually if they aren't really dirty you hand wash them with just a little bleach (if they are white). If they aren't just use soap or just run them under water and rub away the dirt. Don't wash them with the laces, get new laces or wash those sepratley in the washing machine.
Reply:washing machine
Reply:I'd soak them for a few days in Oxyclean and then scrub the soles using a toothbrush with some Ajax or other sink cleaner (it has bleach) and then throw them in the washer. After they wash just let them air dry. I have done this a lot with mine, and they look almost new when finished.
Reply:I wash my leather tennis shoes with soap.


If them are of canvas, do it with a gentle detergent. Not hot water, cold, please.

The businessman wants you to dress professionally for the interview. Dress shoes would be good, even casual shoes are better than tennis shoes.
Reply:The business man probably wants you to wear a suit and dress shoes. These are necessary for an interview. If you have any relatives or friends close by, I would recommend borrowing a pair from them. If not, go to your nearest walmart on the way and pick up a cheap pair! Hope this helped. :)
Reply:borrow a pair of good shoes from a friend.

How silly is it wearing basketball shoes during a pro tennis match..?? yeah Bethanie Mattek does that?

See her profile..take a look "clothing/euqipment" section...





http://www.sonyericssonwtatour.com/2/pla...





isn't that a shame..?? ..plz tell me a lil in brief how Tennis shoes are diff from basketball shoes...

How silly is it wearing basketball shoes during a pro tennis match..?? yeah Bethanie Mattek does that?
What difference does it make? The main difference is that basketball shoes are high tops (to support the ankles). Maybe she needs the extra ankle support that basketball shoes offer.





Even if she has a sponsor, she just has to wear that brand of shoe. Sponsors don't dictate which style of shoe they wear (high tops, etc.). She needs to wear whichever type is best for her physically.





For the previous poster....I'm sure she's wearing whatever shirts are comfortable too. As far as her hair goes, she's a tennis player, not a model/actor/etc., you want her to get some fancy up-do just to play tennis?





Edit: Who are you to say what she should spend her money on? Maybe she's being smart and saving/investing for the future. Sports won't support her forever you know.
Reply:Dear,


Bethanie play for her game win nor for other adv. she whar her own convience and provider satisfaction . the pro match was conducted at grevel silk ground to aviod silperrey in sport the win is only goal not a dress. so we cant say its silly. when we honour the sportsprit than we cant see any fault.


Thanks.
Reply:At first I thought it borderline insane, but then I learned she doesn't have a sponser or the money to buy them, so she just wears whatever's on sale. I mean, she could at least wear a few nicer shirts, though. And fix up her hair a bit. But after hearing her at an intreview she sounds really sweet, so I can look past the very bizzare outfit!
Reply:Bethanie Mattek is the worst-dressed player on the tour. She looks like a bag lady in some of her ridiculous outfits. She says she likes making fashion statements on the court, but all she is telling me is "Look I got dressed in the dark again!"
Reply:i applaud her myself. she obviously does her own thing which is a nice thing considering tennis these days is dictated so much by corporate contracts and marketing ploys. if she feels they're more comfortable to her so be it. basketball sneaks are actually pretty similar to tennis sneaks--they are court shoes afterall. although on clay one does need special shoes if you can't slide well. and her dress is her thing.....she obviously doesn't benefit from the label sponsors so she has to create her own.





and i applaud her for keeping in mind her financial conservation....imagine the money it takes to travel so much on this tour....especially these days. and she's not consistent enough to garner herself a nice income like players in the top 20 and higher.

Do you always buy the same kind of tennis shoes?

and how much you willing to pay for your tennis shoes?


what brand and model?


why do you like them?


this is for serious tennis player please

Do you always buy the same kind of tennis shoes?
at first i try different kinds of shoes. but when i finally found out which pair suits my style of play, i stuck with it. it is yonex and it usually cost around 80-115 dollars. it would last around 4 months and its flexicushion insoles really help a lot
Reply:I have been playing tennis for a long time. Yes I do always buy the same tennis shoe. I am willing to pay up to 60 dollars for tennis shoes. I usually use an Addidas Tirand III. I like them for their comfort and style. I wear out shoes within 2-3 months, so it is not worth it for me to buy expensive shoes. Also this shoe provides extra protection to where tennis players are prone to wearing out.





Good Luck with your choice of shoes.
Reply:i generally stick with the same brand and usually the same design. i have been using addidas barricades all my life and i think i have used each model. they generally cost about $100. i play tennis five days a week and they usually last me no more than two months. in my opinion, addidas makes the most durable shoes and they are the most comfrotable. if you are looking soley for performance, try nike, but their shoes only last a couple weeks.

My husband wouldn't put little wheels on my tennis shoes so I could roller skate!! :(?

I sometimes see children in stores roller skating in their tennis shoes. Its sooo cute!! They have these shoes that have wheels in them to and they can walk or skate. I love roller skating and asked my husband if he would make me some shoes like that but he said no and I didn't want to accept that so I kept asking him and then he got mad at me and wouldn't buy me the earrings today that we were planning on getting due to the sales. I want to know what I can do to change his mind!!

My husband wouldn't put little wheels on my tennis shoes so I could roller skate!! :(?
Sounds like your husband controls everything. Its time you got a bank account of your own and were able to buy some things you wanted. You dont have to make shoes like the ones you have described, you can buy them. Shop around....although with your husband controlling everything, I guess that is impossible. You need to assert yourself and get a bank account, or even an allowance of your own.





Ive read a few of your other questions and answers and I get the impression you are only a teenager. Did your husband buy you as a child bride?
Reply:jus go buy it. they sale them with wheels. when ur not shoppin with him then wear it but when u go out with him dont cuz it might be embarrassing to him.
Reply:Last week it was the ice skating rink he wouldn't build for you in the back yard, wasn't it.


You need to grow up. That is the only way you will ever find a husband. Going around pronouncing everything from little wheels on shoes to pets on ice as "soooooo cute" is showing you up for what you are: a bored 14-year-old.


Now go do your homework.
Reply:Is all that you can do, complain? He's looking out for you and your complaining?
Reply:Quit badgering him like a spoiled brat for starters.


See if they have those kind of shoes with the wheels your size,maybe write to the shoe company an ask if they can make them in your size.Or tell him to take your roller skating, it IS a lot of fun I havent done it in ages myself.Think I will ask the pastor about getting all the kids together to skate sometime.

What is the difference between a volleyball shoe and and other types of tennis shoes?

I just purchased a recommended pair of volleyball shoes for my 6th grader to use for play. What is different about these shoes than any regular tennis shoes?

What is the difference between a volleyball shoe and and other types of tennis shoes?
Good question! unfortunatley, i am roped in the buying these shoes as well-marketed for "volleyball" use. In reality, i dont thinkthey are all the different. A little gel thing in the toe, a little different sole, but other thant hat, not too much.
Reply:well on the bottom of a volleyball shoe there is something that keeps you from sliding when you are running and with a regular shoe you will slide
Reply:I play on a Highschool volleyball team, so here's my answer: The major difference in volleyball shoes and running shoes is that running shoes are made for RUNNING. Sure, you may run in volleyball, but the shoes you'd want should have a nice high arch that will allow you to jump high. Volleyball shoes also have better grip on the ground, so when you're diving for a ball you don't keep slideing. A volleyball company that has nice volleyball shoes is Adidas. Good Luck!
Reply:More Support for your ankles and less slippery so you dont glide.
Reply:your best bet would be to buy Asics shoes or Mizuno shoes because they are the best shoes to move around in. Otherwise, I would make sure to get shoes with a rounded top so there is no rolling of the ankle! Good Luck!
Reply:Basically it has to do with the support provided by the shoe. Running shoes are made for forward and backward movement and provide cushion for the impacts caused by the foot hitting the ground during running. They do not provide adequate support for lateral movements and for the turns associated with volleyball. You mentioned Tennis shoes although I believe you mean running shoes. Structurally tennis shoes are very similar to volleyball shoes except for weight, vball shoes are much lighter. The movements in both sports are very similar so the soles and support provided are very similar.





At the 6th grade level I doubt you would see an increase of ankle and leg injuries from your players wearing running shoes simply because they don't usually move a whole lot. However the older and more advanced players get, I would definitely recommend volleyball shoes simply because they provide better support and prevent injuries like rolled ankles and the like.





Hope that helps.

Why is it rude to wear tennis shoes with white sock to Ireland?

Planning a trip to Ireland and read that it is rude to wear tennis shoes and white socks really don't want to make anyone mad so if you know the reason or if this is really true let me know Please!!!

Why is it rude to wear tennis shoes with white sock to Ireland?
I think you have been misinformed. There is no reason why people would consider this rude, lots of people here in Ireland wear white socks with tennis shoes. The only places this might be a problem would be pubs and clubs who have a dress code in the evenings. These premises tend to have security staff at the doors. Enjoy yourself and wear what you feel comfortable in!
Reply:I lived in Ireland for 14 years,and I had never heard of any one think or say it was rude to wear whites socks with white tennis shoes(sneakers).Half the people I know who are Irish wear white socks when they wear tennis shoes(sneakers).


Hope you have a grand time while your there.
Reply:Just buy a bunch of grey socks and you'll be fine :)
Reply:I wouldn't consider it rude. At worst, someone might sneer at you. But I can't see that happening either, I think you'll be fine if that's what you wear. Personally, I find socks and sandals far more offensive!
Reply:no more than someone ordering a COORS in MILWAUKEE
Reply:It's not rude, it's just that Europeans don't wear white socks with tennis shoes unless they are actually playing a sport or exercising. Also, Americans tend to match their socks with their shoes, while other's tend to match their sock with their pants.

AHH! HELP PLEASE! Must find cute white tennis shoes for uniform... required... can have touch of blue?

OOOOKay, so I get some new information that we have to wear white tennis shoes with only an accent of blue for our uniform. Now, I am one who doesn't own any sneakers and I would prefer if forced to wear them that they are the sleekish non-sneaker--sneaker but they still have to have laces, no chuck taylors, basic white tennise shoes but *ugh* to go with a skirt. I was looking at pumas but hard to find white with a only a tiny bit of blue...

Keds actually have some really cute styles now which would fit your requirements. Have you tried Deisels or Sketchers? They make a sleeker looking tennis shoe as well that I have seen in white. I know NewBalance has cross trainer shoes that are white with a little blue in them as well, that is what I wear to work to match my scrubs. You might even try a nursing uniform store. They carry a lot of different styles of white shoe, and surprisingly they are not all of the orthopedic variety...lol

These shoes look almost like runnning shoes. But why blue with a kirt i have to ask that would not look good. Puma is really good on sweaters and sport wwear but not on shoes go with some other brand name like adias or nike.

What can I use to clean leather tennis shoes besides shoe cleaner?
If they aren't too dirty, you can just use Dawn and hot water with a toothbrush or nail brush. If they are stained a little, add a small amount of bleach to a cup of water with some Dawn in it. I have always used these methods since my husband owns (and gets dirty) about 7 pairs of leather tennis shoes.

Reply:you can use warm water and soap however depending on how soiled the shoes are I wouldn't recommend going cheap like that. Also depending on what type of soil or dirt you have on the shoe is a factor because leather will sort of rot if you do wash the shoe. Just go out and buy some shoe cleaner; will save you a bunch of headaches in the long run.

Reply:Believe it or not, I wash mine in the washing machine. I let them 'soak' for a while with normal laundry soap. ('Liquid' is best.) I use the 'regular' cycle for a few minutes; then put it to 'gentle'. A LITTLE bit of bleach has never hurt them. I also add some old rags or a throw rug to keep them from getting 'scraped up'. (I one time put a pair in two old pillow cases; one shoe in each.) Use WARM water. Warm dryer ,or no dryer (the Sun is good...), and that's it! Unless the shoes are 'embellished' (I had a pair that had a holographic sort of thing...) they really SHOULD be O.K! SERIOUSLY!!! I've ALWAYS done this -with my shoes and my kids'!

Do you need seperate shoes for track? I know people who do running and they wear seperate shoes specifically for running (like Saucony or whatever it's called). Converse are always good since they come in such a variety of prints and colors.
Reply:If you need to be able to run track in them, and not hurt your ankles then you should be wearing running shoes. I know not all of them are extremly cute but try a pair of Nike Shocks...lots of different colors!!
Reply:I have K-Swiss and they're awesome! I'm also doing track this fall, and they are the best running shoes I've ever had. They're cute too. Most of them are only white, so i replaced the white shoelaces with blue ones. Good luck!

Which brand sells the best tennis shoes? nike, adidas, reebok or what?

I need a new pair of tennis shoes. Comfortable and cool-looking ones.

Which brand sells the best tennis shoes? nike, adidas, reebok or what?
As far as tennis shoes go, Nike and Addidas make some amazing ones. The Addidas Barricades feel great but run for a high price. Nike shoes look awesome, but dont offer quite the stability and comfort of the Addidas tennis shoes. Your best bet is to try out different kinds of tennis shoes and pick the ones that feel the best and appeal to your sense of style.





A little trick I picked up over the years: Try on some basketbal shoes. The And1's are absolutely the greatest shoes to play tennis in. Not only do they look nice, they are lighter than most tennis shoes which allows you to move faster. They also have great ankle protection and awesome gripping on the court. However, they do run a little expensively as well. But trust me, they are worth the money.
Reply:New Balance, functional and they look very nice aswell.
Reply:PRINCE!
Reply:If you want something cool then I suggest going for some adidas barricades. They will put you back about $120 but they're worth it. It's a heavier shoe but gives you a solid base. Prince shoes are my second pick but I don't wear them so I can't give you an estimate on what they are like. I wore wilson's for a while but once I switched to adidas another shoe brand just isn't the same.
Reply:Nike
Reply:nike does well in tennis. reebok in basketball.
Reply:k-swiss





they may be known for different things but k-swiss are world known for tennis shoes
Reply:reebok
Reply:The Adidas Barricade is the best. Great support.
Reply:I'll recommend either Nike or Adidas... for cool looking ones go for Adidas Barricade IV.





Nike has been making things wrong with fashion lately in their "chlorine blue" color in shirts and even their Revive shoes
Reply:I think Reebok are the most comfortable by far, especially if you are on your feet alot. However Nike and Adidas seem to "look" better with cool colors and so forth. Have you ever heard of New Balance or Puma they look nice and are fairly more comfortable then Nike or Adidas

Where can I find Asics Tennis Shoes?

Hi, are there Asic tennis shoes available in stores in singapore?


thanks!

Where can I find Asics Tennis Shoes?
I don't live in Singapore, but my best guess would probably at a clothing store, where you can also find shoes in the sporting section. But I believe you might be able to find them at a sport store, or a tennis store. You could order them at www.tenniswarehouse.com





check it out!





Try a sporting store like Big 5





Some tennis stores are Avanit, Sturvants





Try Golfsmith, I am not sure what the website is, but google it up. It isn't all golf!
Reply:i used to be in singapore. I think vivo city has some asics retailers (i think i saw a few of them before).





asics tennis shoes are very hard to find. My best bet would be that you'd only find the Gel Resolution.





Asics carries many tennis shoes but many of them are only for the japanese market. If u have a japanese friend try asking him to buy one in japan.
Reply:I have Asics Tennis shoes and love them. You can try checking some of the shoe stores if they have a set up like some of the ones here in the U.S. do.





Also, go to: http://www.asics.com





That will take you to the homepage and it should have a listing of countries or regions. Check for Asics Asia to see if it is listed that way and you may be able to find who in Singapore sells them.
Reply:I got mine from tenniswarehouse.com I'm assuming you can get them from that site in Singapore. I love mine, very cushiony.





In the US I have not found the court shoes available in any store - not even the tennis specific stores.

How to wear/what to wear with black tennis shoes/sneakers? i am a female?

i know most girls don't wear black tennis shoes or sneakers, but if i do choose to wear one, how should i wear it? like what type of clothes/outfit should it be worn with?





what are some cool black tennis shoes/sneakers right now?

How to wear/what to wear with black tennis shoes/sneakers? i am a female?
18 y/o and older should drop sneakers and start wearing heels...
Reply:If your talking about something like converse, just wear jeans and either a rock band shirt or a sweatshirt or something. You can obviously wear whatever you want with it on top, but a rock shirt fits the image better. Something with a funky design...I mean really, whatever. Just make sure you wear jeans! They can be light or dark...I think middle of the road look best.





A cute zip up collared sweatshirt might look nice :)
Reply:I think you could pull it off with a cool black shirt or a shirt with black in it. A good type of black shoe maybe some FILA's , Black airforce ones ' or maybe Some slide ons.

If you tie them to something on the inside, then stay in place and never get pulled out of shape like they do in the washing machine. And they smell good too!

The bottom of tennis shoes, for court use only, have great bottoms for lateral movement. Whereas plain sneakers might not have as good as support. Also, you can sprain your ankle with running shoes. Almost everybody who has worn those has fallen or twisted their ankle in some way. When your thinking about buying shoes, they this website.

Reply:i've noticed that too.. I think in the East coast they call it sneakers. In the West they call it tennis shoes. I'm not used to calling them tennis shoes.
Reply:yes there are certain shoes that are better for playing tennis ask when you buy them they should know.
Reply:im not trying to be funny or nothing but i say that the difference between the two is the names. (tennis shoes and sneakers)
Reply:Sneakers is a generic term for athletic shoes; whereas tennis shoes are meant (or made) to be worn when playing tennis.
Reply:Tennis shoes are made for tennis. Sneakers is just a generic term to decribe shoes that are in the design of 'sport shoes'. Shoe makers make sport shoes specific for all sports, with treads and structure designed for that particular sport.





Some manufacturers make only for "fashion" and have no useful 'sporting' function.
Reply:Tennis shoes just mean that the soles are flat so they will not leave any scuff marks on the court, As you become a better player you can learn to slide on hard courts also and you need the flat soles. So if you are a tennis player I recommend them very highly.
Reply:Tennis shoes don't have defined soles. The bottom of the shoes are smooth so if you're playing on a clay tennis court, you don't scuff it up.





Sneakers have bottoms with traction. The bottoms will be rough so if you're running around, you have extra traction and don't fall down.

What are the differences bet. running shoes & tennis shoes when it comes to soles?

are there different type of tennis shoes for each court/surface???

What are the differences bet. running shoes %26amp; tennis shoes when it comes to soles?
Running shoes typically have narrower soles to allow quick forward to back motion.





Tennis shoes have a wider sole to give you more stability and support. Typically Tennis shoes will also use a stiffer rubber for durability reasons. When playing on concrete or hard court, any tennis shoe should be fine. For clay look for a shoe with a wave-like pattern on the soles. This wave pattern helps reduce the build up of clay on the bottom of your shoes and prevents you from sliding.





On a side note, tennis shoes usually have full leather uppers. This gives you more lateral support. You'll will need this lateral support because you move from left to right while starting and stopping really quickly. If you play tennis with RUNNING shoes you risk the chance of ankle injuries.
Reply:The soles of the tennis shoe is designed for the surface u r playing on. Running shoes are basically the same in all brands. They are designed for the same surface. Tennis soles are designed to help stop sliding in order to control your footing so u can hit a more stable shot. Good question always play tennis in tennis shoe not running not designed for the court.
Reply:Joe Willy Neckbone says, " I don't rightly know the answer to this question, but I will be right here when you ask a question that I do know the answer to."
Reply:Running shoes are made for moving forward and straight. That's why the heel is usually a little higher. Tennis shoes are made for moving in all directions, and usually have more of a flat sole. I wouldn't use running shoes for anything but running.
Reply:Tennis shoes have flat soles that provide maximum contact and traction on a court. Running shoes are not flat and have different soles depending on running surface.





Tennis shoes have non-marking soles which keep a court from getting marks the color of your sole when you drag your foot. Some courts/clubs require non-marking soles. Running shoes will leave a mark on courts when you drag you foot.





Tennis shoes sometimes have built-up toes for people who drag their toe on their serve. Many running shoes have cloth upper toes that wear through very quickly when you drag your toe.





Tennis shoes are on average more durable because of the demands of tennis (quick changing directions, hard and coarse surface) while running shoes are usually lighter and offer more ventilation, and thus are usually made out of less durable and thinner materials.

How do I clean my white tennis shoes?
If they are canvas, you can run them through the washing machine with detergent and a little bleach. (Clorox 2 if colored)





If they are leather, you need a good leather cleaner. I suggest going to a shoe repair shop. Don't use the crap from Walmart.
Reply:You can use soap(oxi clean is good) and water or use White shoe polish or run them through the washing machine then let them try in the sun
Reply:well if you want a quick clean get some laundry detergant and an old tooth brush and clean them up dont drench them just get a wet rag and wet them with the rag a little bit, then gently scrub with the tooth brush and wipe off theyll shine like new...
Reply:I wash tennis shoes in the washing machine all the time. One of my children was a cross country runner. He ran a race once that was so muddy with new shoes on, the mud pulled the shoe right off his foot. A spectator saw what happened and returned the shoe to him at the end of the race, which he finished running in his sock. I took that totally muddy shoe tossed it in the wash and it came out like new. The kids on his cross country team couldn't believe it was the same shoe. Funny story but true. Don't be afraid to wash your tennis shoes just like other laundry. You can air dry them or partially dry them in the dryer with some towels, so they are not so noisy. These were not cheap canvas shoes either.
Reply:White shoe polish.

Why is it not right for adults to wear tennis shoes in Germany?

I asked a previous question about offensive clothing and didn't get a clear answer so i thought i'd ask this specific question.

Why is it not right for adults to wear tennis shoes in Germany?
I live in Germany and I can guarrantee you that a lot of adults wear tennis shoes in their free time. My dad who is 57 years old wears tennis shoes....everyone wears them....especially young adults.


Work is different of course. Depending on the type of work you do, it might not be appropriate to wear tennis shoes.

How Long Should You Keep/ Use Tennis Shoes?

I walk at least an hour and a half each day (1.30).





Now, my feet are starting to hurt, and my heel and I feel like the tennis shoe is wearing out. After how many months should I throw them out. Be honest in your answer. I can't afford $70 sneakers every few months.





Note: Are they making good sneakers like they used to? I mean they seem to not last long, are just good looking shoes, with a high price tag, and made in places much cheaper for labor purposes.

How Long Should You Keep/ Use Tennis Shoes?
Shoes should feel comfortable from the start. And remember, shoes don't get "broken in", your feet are broken in to the shoes. Evidently your feet can't compensate. Try switching brands of shoes. I stand up all day long and my feet would always hurt. I switched to another brand that felt good on *my* feet, and they don't hurt anymore. I've had the same brand of shoes for 5 years now. I spend around $70 on a pair of shoes. My work environment is quite rough on shoes, I normally end up tearing them up before they would have needed to be replaced. Even still, they last about a year or so.
Reply:well if the plastic in the back is scraping the back of your heel it's about time to throw the pair out. most skater shoes are quite comfortable and provid cushion and ankle support. my favorites are dvs and dc and lakais are nice too.
Reply:Well, my mom has had her Nike tennis shoes for like 6 years and wears them all the time and they still look great! She has only had to fix the heels on them about two times with some shoe glue because the bottom of them was coming off.

It depends... sometimes the best thing to do is get cheaper shoes and change them more often ... no name brands sometimes doesn't mean bad shoes it just means you aren't paying for the name.

Blisters from uneven ground - is it my tennis shoes or just my feet?

Every time I wear tennis shoes on uneven ground and walk for a while, I get blisters. This happens when I'm hiking or walking around at a camp site. My question is, will hiking shoes/boots fix the problem? Or is it that my shoes are a bit too loose? Or is there some conditioning problem with my feet?





I suspected I needed hiking boots at first, but I know someone who hikes mountains in flip-flops and she seems to do OK.

Blisters from uneven ground - is it my tennis shoes or just my feet?
3 things cause blisters. Heat, Friction and Moisture. Eliminate one of those, and you won't have blisters.





Chances are your tennis shoes are too loose, maybe too large and when walking on uneven ground your foot slides around in them causing blisters.





Try getting a sneaker that fits a little tighter, and as far as hiking shoes go; I suggest Merrell Chamelon's.
Reply:Try wearing a thin pair of cotton socks under a thicker pair. This reduces the friction on your skin. Make sure you powder your feet regularly to keep them dry. Hiking boots are better than tennis shoes if you are walking long distances.

It could be possible that it is time for new tennis shoes. I get blisters from my running shoes when ever they are "worn" out even if my feet initially feel comfy in them. Also could be the pure fact that those shoes just dont agree with your feet for that long period of time, i.e. not good walking shoes.To stop it from happening again I suggest maybe some new shoes if you can afford or trying a different pair of shoes next time you take a long outing. To get rid of blisters is not a fast process because you have essentially gotten a severe sunburn on your foot. So i the best I can suggest is soaking your feet in nice warm epson salt, that make them feel better and to keep them protect while in other shoes put some neosporin and then a cushioning band aid or those blister covers work as well can be found at any drug store
Reply:DO NOT try to pop them you could get a severe infection in your system.





I would call a foot doctor for the best answers to these questions.
Reply:i think it depends on who u are or how ur feet are built. i know ppl that get blisters all the time. ive never gotten one. so it may depend.
Reply:Make sure that your shoes are fairly new- you should replace tennis shoes every 3-4 months because they do wear down. Also, when you go to buy new ones, ask someone to help you find the right type for you- you may pronate or supinate to one side more than the other. You could also try the gel insoles for better cushioning as well. And make sure that your feet and shoes are dry... put some baby powder on your feet before you put socks on and throw your shoes in the dryer if you ever walk through the rain.

Do vegans wear leather tennis shoes?

do vegans wear leather tennis shoes?

Do vegans wear leather tennis shoes?
No, they do not because an animal was killed to make the shoes.
Reply:Living a vegan lifestyle would include avoiding any and all animal products, not just animal-based foods.
Reply:I don't see why vegans would or would not wear such shoes.
Reply:A true vegan wouldn't wear these, for vegans avoid any animal by-products whenever possible. There are many vegan-friendly options out there though.
Reply:uhhh, let's hope not if they really are a self professed vegan.
Reply:a true vegan would not
Reply:...Think about that for a second :). Let's see...hm that is a oh yeah a NO, seriously think about what you put on this before you type it up.

Would you rather wear tennis shoes, flip flops/sandals or be barefoot.......?

I personally love being barefoot or I wear flip flops. I hate my feet confined in tennis shoes.

Would you rather wear tennis shoes, flip flops/sandals or be barefoot.......?
I would rather be in my bare feet 24/7/365





I have not worn socks for five years along with any type of tennis shoe, it has been flip flops or barefoot for me since then. My feet suffocate in anything other than flip flops and I like to free my tootsies. While I am a flip flop gal I am now 30% flip flops and 70% barefoot. In summer, winter, autumn, spring I am only in either of these two.





Nothing beats the freedom of being up to just leave footwear behind and enjoy a day of naked feet. Where I am from no one considers me strange for this, and I do it at work too.

How to get athletic/tennis shoes clean?

Whats the best way to clean tennis shoes?

How to get athletic/tennis shoes clean?
depend´s really on how expensive they are . you can soak them in your normal washing powder for 1 hr rinse well or put them in your machine ,but don´t add bleach ,this only burn´s the material. which ever way you choose , here´s a little tick on how they will dry very quickly. it´s not a joke,it work´s . Put normal rice in your shoe´s just enough to cover the bottom of the shoe inside ,then with as many clean clothes stuff them inside the shoe´s leave them like this in a warm place over night . and you will be surprised just how dry they are, try it
Reply:I throw them in the washer. Even leather ones. Let them air dry!
Reply:I don't know if this is recommended, but I put mine into the wash machine and then stuff with newspaper to dry. They look like new again. Do not dry in the dryer unless you do so with very low heat or just air.
Reply:I use this method. For the outside of the leather tennis shoe I clean using toothpaste (gets it clean very clean) and for the insole I take it out and handwash and air dry.





Good luck.
Reply:Pull out the insole. Wash in the washing machine (use a little bleach if they are all white). Let air dry. Slip insoles back inside (they will shrink if you wash them).
Reply:I throw mine in the washer every now and then. If they are white wash them with your white load with bleach. If they are dark wash with a few pairs of jeans.
Reply:either use the soak cycly on the personal machine for 24 hrs with oxiclean or throw away the shoes--much bacteria.

How to clean white tennis shoes?

i have two pair of muddy tennis shoes. One pair is canvas the other is leather. Any advice on getting them white again?

How to clean white tennis shoes?
Rinse the canvas shoes off in cold water %26amp; wipe the mud off the leather shoes with a wet cloth. For the canvas shoes, you can wash them in the washer with cool/warm water %26amp; add a little bit of Clorox to the washer along with your detergent, if you don't have a bleach dispenser on your washer. Once they're clean, put them outdoors in the sun to dry if that's possible, depending on what your living arrangements are.





As for your leather shoes, once you have removed the mud off the shoes with a damp cloth, add Dawn dish soap to a small bucket or in your sink, then dip a cloth into the Dawn/water %26amp; wipe in circular motions until the shoes are clean. I have cleaned my leather tennis shoes this way for years. You can even pour straight Dawn on a clean rag %26amp; wash the shoes this way. Once the dirt is gone, rinse the shoes with a damp cloth. To get the laces clean on both canvas %26amp; leather shoes, wet the laces fold them up in your hands %26amp; add some Dawn dish soap to them. Lather them up well %26amp; then let them soak in a little bit of hot water. When clean, rinse thoroughly %26amp; hang them up to dry.

Whats the most durable tennis shoes? Nike, prince, Wilson, adidas or Reebok?

Im currently on a hunt for a new pait of tennis shoes and was hoping to get another that can last me longer that 6 months.

Whats the most durable tennis shoes? Nike, prince, Wilson, adidas or Reebok?
I've had contracts with all the above and can tell you the Wilson line is the most durable. In the last ten years, they've also come a long way in the comfort department.





Here's how I'd rate them in durability.


1. Wilson


2. Adidas


3. Prince


4. Nike


5. Reebok





Here's how I'd rate them in comfort. And FYI, I have a neutral foot. So supinated or pronated foot types will have a differing opinion.


1. Nike


2. Reebok


3. Wilson


4. Adidas


5. Prince





All things considered, I don't think you can go wrong with any of these brands except Reebok. Reebok seems to wear VERY quickly and I've found they don't offer the support of the other mentioned brands.





If you play competitively on hard courts, 6 months will be a hard target. Wilson will be your best chance at attaining that kind of durability. And for your feet's sake, don't overlook the midsole. If the cushioning breaks down, your going to suffer from feet, knee, or even hip pain.





Good luck, and I hope I helped.
Reply:Nike makes some really good Tennis shoes
Reply:Nah, not reebok. I had a pair of them and it lasted for like less than a year... considering that im just a weekend warrior in tennis. Try Babolat shoes, i dunno. I just thought roddick mentioned that he's a flat-footed caucasian and still manage to be athletic during games. Try the other three.. but please no to Reebok. k?

How can I mount spurs on my tennis shoes?

For a long time now, I've wanted to put spurs, like those worn by cowboys, on my tennis shoes. I don't really know a whole lot about spurs or how they are mounted, but it seems like they screw into the (wooden?) heel of a boot. I love the little "ching..ching" that spurs make when you walk, and I think it'd be badass to mount some on a pair of regular tennis shoes. Anyone know how I might be able to do this?





I've kind of passively looked into doing it, but with little to no avail. Can it be done?

How can I mount spurs on my tennis shoes?
If you want the sound, your better off getting a pair of cowboy boots and some spurs. Although if you want good sound get a pair of mens western show spurs, they look good and have a jinglebob that makes noise.

Reply:Spurs usually have a strap that goes around the front of the boot and buckles, it might work with high tops. Go for it.
Reply:Lol


I'm sorry, I can't stop laughing at the image your question puts in my mind !


If you're serious about it, there are some types that strap on around the front of the ankles.

Can I use my old Spalding volleyball shoes for playing tennis?

They're an all white shoe, size three. I'm going to start tennis on Monday, and I need Tennis shoes. So I was wondering if my spalding (the brand) volleyball shoes would do the trick?

Can I use my old Spalding volleyball shoes for playing tennis?
I wouldn't recommend it either. Only tennis shoes are designed for the lateral movements and toe support. Volleyball shoes are not designed for the type of movements you do in tennis. It's not just a matter of comfort; it's a matter of support as well as avoiding injury (like sprained ankles).
Reply:i wouldn't recommend it


tennis shoes are made specifically to help you move side to side and stutter stop. Even though volleyball shoes are similar, they are meant to be played indoors and will wear down fast. If you get tennis shoes, they will feel much better on the court.
Reply:They will suffice. They are court shoes, which is better than a running shoe. DON'T wear a running shoe no matter what - you'll turn your ankle. But if you keep playing you might want a tennis shoe cause those volleyball shoes will wear out quickly on a hard court.. Try tenniswarehouse.com or tennisexpress.com, holabirdsports.com, or eastbay.com - they all have some good shoes on sale.

I wanted to buy nike tennis shoes, i need to know about fake and real shoes before i buy?

i wanted to know how to different fake and real nike tennis shoes before i confirm to buy one, can anyone tell me ?please i need to know

I wanted to buy nike tennis shoes, i need to know about fake and real shoes before i buy?
If you are buying from a reputable store, you'll be fine. If you are buying from online, I'd be a little worried, too. I would not trust ebay as a reliable source. If you are using tenniswarehouse.com or midwestsports.com, they are perfectly legit companies, and you should have no problems. Also, if you are seeing a pair of $110 shoes for $40, they probably aren't real. Just use common sense.





Also, tennis shoes aren't exactly a "high-demand" item. I don't think there'd be much market for fake tennis shoes.

Reply:look at the tag inside of the shoe that has the sizes and look for the nike logo. knock offs dont have this logo.Also stick to real store and not flea markets or swapt meets. Real stores this shoe city, jc penny dont carry knock offs. Also ask for the box
Reply:The most important thing about shoes and their fake counterparts is the seller. If the seller is reputable or seems solid, then the shoes probably won't be fake. If you're buying online, there will be no way to tell if the shoes you will be receiving will be real or knock-offs until they arrive at your door. But if you're going to an actual outlet store, you can tell by looking at the Nike sign all around the shoes. Then look for tags. Generally, outlet or department stores won't be selling fake shoes.
Reply:oh there was a study not to long ago that they did a thing about off brands and name brands and there the same thing do the same thing so if you want to pay for the name go for it but if you want same result and dont care just go to walmart..lol i swear it was on the news you might can look it up?
Reply:Don't buy Nike or Adidas or any other name brands from anywhere other than a legitimate retailer. You can find them online for relatively cheap, like on shoebuy.com or zappos.com, or at your local Sports Authority or similar big store. If a deal looks too good to be true, like $10 for a pair of $100 Nike's from the back of someone's van at a flea market, than it probably is a fake.
