Somehow, it doesn't happen in stores and I notice it after purchase. And my feet usually demand some cushioning. No advice, just empathy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-trapping-air#post-2032889 Wed, 05 Jun 2019 22:34:01 +0000 Bennett 2032889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are all cracking me up!

And also what Lisa P said. I am the same - I sometimes push back on a chair, it makes an obnoxious sound, so I immediately do it again ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-trapping-air#post-2032623 Wed, 05 Jun 2019 01:09:22 +0000 Anonymous 2032623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Busted out laughing at Lisa Ps comment (at the office...)!<br /> I normally don't wear ankle straps-just mules-and flap flap down the hall. And clomp clomp down the steps! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-trapping-air#post-2032582 Tue, 04 Jun 2019 22:47:50 +0000 Brooklyn 2032582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You try putting some talc inside the shoe or an inner sole. That has worked for me. Like Janet I find it goes away eventually with wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-trapping-air#post-2032568 Tue, 04 Jun 2019 21:51:28 +0000 Janet 2032568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve had this happen before too — an argument against too much cushioning in a shoe! In my experience it has usually worked itself out after a couple of wears. Or it’s so bad when trying on that it’s a sign that the shoes are not for me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-trapping-air#post-2032556 Tue, 04 Jun 2019 21:15:18 +0000 Anonymous 2032556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It has happened to me mostly with sneakers. I can’t get rid of them fast enough. Just Say No to noisy footwear.<br /> With the sandals ask to try on other pairs like it in your size. My DSIL used to ask that all the boxes of the shoe she liked be brought out and try on every one. Then she would pick the best fit for each foot. Maybe there are some that don’t make the noise. An air pocket forms or is present in the sole. The air is forced out as you take a step. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-trapping-air#post-2032552 Tue, 04 Jun 2019 21:06:22 +0000 rachylou 2032552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This has happened to me too.

So annoying ... unfortunately I have no advice, but I do commiserate and will follow with interest! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-trapping-air#post-2032532 Tue, 04 Jun 2019 20:14:51 +0000 LisaLisa 2032532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Does anyone else have this problem with sandals?&nbsp; When trying on most any sandal with an ankle strap, my feet tend to trap air between my foot and the shoe.&nbsp; Therefore with each step as air passes it sounds as though I'm stepping on a whoopee cushion!&nbsp; How horribly embarrassing when folks don't realize it's my shoe!&nbsp; I really prefer an ankle strap for more stability, but I've had to pass on some really cute sandals this spring as this is happening more and more.</p> <p>Anyone know how to help with this? </p>
