Smart Tricks To Shop The Best Canvas Shoe

By Jeremy Lee


Being constructed out of a coarse material like hemp, a canvas is used to make numerous items like sails, tents, boards and shoes. A casual canvas shoe or sneaker is composed of an upper part and a rubber sole. The two most common forms of canvas shoes that are on sale are high top and low top. Being available in a number of colors, you can easily find canvas shoes in your favorite color.

Like canvas shoes, especially those made for children, have cute designs on them as well. In fact, canvas shoes does not have much shock absorption, cushioning or support and therefore are not suitable for any type of ?pounding the pavement? sort of activities. If you run, do aerobics, play tennis or any other sports then go in for an honest to goodness pair of sneakers and leave the canvas shoes for the beach or backyard. People love canvas shoes because they are versatile, casual, fun and cheap. You can buy a decent pair of them for anywhere from twenty to thirty dollars (and sometimes less).

A great benefit of canvas shoe is that these are easier to maintain and don't cause any fuss like other type of shoes. So taking care of the canvas shoes is very simple. It is always a great idea to clean the canvas shoes even before you wear them. You can clean it gently with a clean cloth spray or starch. If your skin is very sensitive, then you got to wear a vinyl gloves while spraying your shoes. Later on you can wash your hands.

It is not advisable to wear canvas shoes during cold weather conditions. However, if you wear it during winter, you are more likely to encounter thin white wavy lines on the upper part of the sole. You may even sense more number of white lines around the soles of the shoe. These white lines are often called as salt stains and if these are not removed immediately, it may cause your shoes to crack as the stitching on the shoes may loosen and crack away. One of the best ways to treat salt stains is to wash the shoes with suede and fabric shampoo and dry the shoes in the air. Don't tend to dry your shoes artificially by showing it under direct heat. Doing so, would destroy the shoe material.

The natural shape of canvas shoe do not remain as ordinary one and sometimes it is because of the way we wear them such as how we walk in them. Some people put more weight on one side of their shoe than the other and this could potentially serve to wear down the sole or heel of a shoe and cause the upper to be stretched unnecessarily. To solve this problem, use shoetrees (which can be purchased at most department and fine shoe stores) or pack the toes of your shoes with newspaper (or regular paper) to help them retain their original shape. And keep in mind that shoelaces need to be replaced once in awhile.

Tying your shoe lace is a must. Make sure not to buy too large or too short shoe laces. Long laces can cause you to fall down. It may also get dirtied easily. Short laces may draw your shoes together, thereby affecting the appearance of the shoes because of its lack of length.
