Girls will go to great lengths to look fashionable. Following the trends, you buy stylish, beautiful and, if you’re lucky, even comfortable shoes. But the pursuit of fashion can be dangerous and damaging to your health. Fashionable shoes sometimes kill our feet.
Woman’s Day learned the risks of girls who wear pumps and ballet flats, and why flip-flops can be more dangerous than platforms or slip-ons.
Sneakers and slip-ons are versatile and stylish footwear. They were once considered ultra-trendy, but today they have moved into the basic everyday wardrobe. Not a single fashionista can do without them: to a club, to a party, to a photo session or a walk in the park, to work with a classic skirt and a strict shirt or on a date with an evening dress – for all occasions.
“A flat sole disturbs the correct position of the foot. It is unable to absorb the impact of the heel on the ground, and this can cause discomfort to the feet and knees. Also, flat shoes can lead to pain in the legs, injuries to the lower leg, “shooting” in the back, and even arthritis.
Advice: if you choose between sneakers and sneakers, the first ones are better, because the relief of the pads is thought out as much as possible. Or wear your favorite slip-ons with a prophylactic orthopedic insole (if the foot is normal) or with an individual orthopedic insole. “
This season’s must-have. Can be heeled or flat. Comfortable, practical, they can be worn with both jeans and dresses. And smart, and elegant, and fashionable. A great alternative to sports shoes.
“Flat mules are usually not attached to the foot, which means that the foot is almost unprotected and can be easily damaged. The foot now and then “slaps”, flies out of the shoe. This can lead to cracked heels. Wearing shoes that do not have heel support can also lead to sprains and chronic heel pain.
Tip: wear these shoes for a short time. “
They have long ceased to be associated only with a beach holiday. They can be worn anywhere and combined with many summer wardrobe items.
“The legs when walking in such flip flops are very overstrained, nevertheless, you need to keep such shoes on your foot, which many people do. And if the sole is very thin, then the foot suffers. And the most unpleasant thing is the calluses between the toes, as they are very painful and take a long time to heal.
Advice: choose such shoes with an anatomical inner surface – there will not be much harm to the foot. “
Pumps with heels are the love of every fashionista. Shoes that are suitable for any occasion, both in a feast and in the world, can be worn. Feet in these shoes look incredibly beautiful.
“Varicose veins, painful bones on the legs, poor circulation in the toes, curvature of the toes and the risk of foot deformities are all consequences of regular and frequent wearing of boats. Narrow toe, incorrect load distribution, last width less than usual make fashionable shoes hazardous to health.
Advice: to avoid undesirable consequences, a model half insole is required. “
Ballerinas are classics. They are combined with almost all wardrobe items and have been a trend for several seasons in a row. And by the way, many celebrities are increasingly preferring them over high-heeled shoes.
“If you have made ballet flats your everyday shoes, flat feet are right there. And also problems with the back and knees due to improper functioning of the feet. Shoes are harmful because of the low side bumpers and narrow toe.
Advice: you can wear it for a short time and only with a model half insole, or choose an insole depending on which model of ballet flats you have chosen. “
The platform will add height and lengthen your legs. And lovers of heels are delighted: the stunning effect remains, and walking in such shoes is much more comfortable.
“The most correct walk is from heel to toe. By wearing platform shoes, you break this process. Platform shoes have virtually no flex and have a very rigid sole. Because of this, the entire load is transferred to the lower legs, and the muscles of the foot practically do not work. Keep in mind that most of the time girls twist their legs in this particular model of shoes.
Advice: it is imperative to calculate the real height of the heel, and if it exceeds 5 cm, such shoes are not useful and will inevitably contribute to the development of transverse flat feet. In order to avoid such consequences, a model half insole is required for such shoes. “
