According to the wearing season, the shoes are divided into summer, winter and demi-season, designed for spring and autumn. With the first species, everything is more or less clear, but with the latter there are often difficulties. Read about what is better to choose.
What kind of shoes is demi-season?
What materials do you sew it from?
It is better to choose shoes made from natural materials (leather or nubuck). The foot will be comfortable, it will “breathe”, while any leatherette, even of good quality, will create a greenhouse effect. Suede and textiles are also not the best choice - they accumulate dirt and get wet. More accurately with a varnish coating. It repels dirt, but it does not allow air to pass through.
What is lining?
What weather is it designed for?
Such shoes must withstand adverse weather conditions. First of all, high humidity, frost and dirt . Temperature drops in spring and autumn can range from -5 to +10. Under such conditions, one pair can not do. Ideal for cold weather - leather upper, insulated lining and embossed, not the thinnest outsole. And when there are more warm days, you can choose shoes easier.
On a note! Many manufacturers indicate the wearing temperature of the shoe pair on the tag.
Types of demi-season shoes
There are a great many of them. Any woman for this period will have several pairs.
- An indispensable thing - shoes with lacing. They are always relevant, stylish and practical. Lace-up boots go wonderfully with a knitted floor-length dress . Such an image will be appropriate even at ceremonial events where there is no strictly dress code.
- Ankle boots are a good choice. With or without heels, they are perfect for both formal business style and eclecticism. Not a single fashionista can do without them in a warm spring or golden autumn.
- In warm and dry weather, classic shoes with steady heels will be an excellent choice for an office suit, and if you don't like heels, loafers or moccasins. Interesting! Women's loafers appeared only in 1986 and quickly reached the peak of popularity thanks to the heroine Audrey Hepburn from the movie "Funny Muzzle".
- For fans of sports style, and for everyday wear, sneakers or sneakers are simply needed.
- In rainy weather, rubber boots will be the best choice. They must be bought with a lining or put on a thick sock - rubber does not keep heat . Such shoes in the offseason are a universal choice. The variety of models is so great that you can find a pair of boots for almost any style. Boots of bright colors will help to create a playful image. If you prefer restraint in clothing - opt for dark colors. Black rubber boots with a small heel organically fit even in a business image.
Important! Be careful when choosing rubber boots of variegated colors - in a cage, with numerous colors, circles and spirals. Wearing them with another bright element of clothing, you can easily overload the image.
Men's demi-season shoes in its diversity does not lag behind women's shoes. Oxfords (shoes with closed lacing), monks (buckle instead of lacing), brogues (with perforated inserts) - for warm weather and for a classic style. Shoes on a thick, often corrugated sole - for freezing. For lovers of sports style or casual style - sneakers and sneakers.
