To get a shoe that really fits, consumers are better off waiting till the afternoon before trying them on, according to the German Shoe Institute (DSI). Feet, says the DSI, are wider in the evening than they are in the morning, so buying shoes in the morning could result in owning shoes that are too tight. As shoes tend to be worn all day long, the best time to buy them is the afternoon, ensuring they are not too loose in the morning or too tight in the evening.
