Advantages and disadvantages

Is it harmful to wear heels? There is no single answer to this question. Recently, Italian scientists have shown that shoes with low heels help strengthen the muscles of the pelvis. At the same time, opponents of such shoes say that arthritis may occur due to the load on the knees with the constant wearing of high-heeled shoes.

It is also not a secret to anyone that with high heels shoes you can rub calluses. By injuring the soft tissue of the skin, it leads to pain. When wearing high-heeled shoes there is a risk of osteoarthritis due to a strong load on the back.

Depending on the height of the heel, the load and harm to the body will be different. For example, models with heels up to 2.5 cm are the safest. In them, the foot will feel comfortable. But even in such shoes there is a drawback - the necessary lifting of the foot is not supported. Because of this, the legs also have to strain.

Models with a heel from 4 to 5 cm are also comfortable. They develop the calf muscles. Gait becomes more graceful and easier. But at the same time possible load on the back.

Shoes with a heel from 6 to 10 cm are less comfortable, but make our posture fit. Such models also develop calf muscles, but they can also do harm. Due to the large load on the leg, such a problem arises as bone growth at the side of the foot.

The most dangerous heel height are 10 cm and higher. It is considered that the greater the heel, the greater the load on the back. From here, various diseases of the joints can appear, such as arthritis, chimps and even intervertebral hernia.

But do not get scared. All this can occur when uncontrolled wearing such shoes.

If you wear shoes with heels on holidays or weekends, you are not at risk. Also, experts advise to give legs to rest from such shoes when worn during the day. In the evening, when you come home, you can make a soothing foot bath with chamomile and massage the legs with a moisturizer. At observance of these simple rules no arthrosis threatens you.

Models and types

With the development of the shoe industry, the model of heeled shoes has become an incredible lot. On the shelves of stores, we can observe the wildest fantasies of designers. As well as classic options.

The most popular option has always been and will be the shoes of the shoes. The distinctive features of such shoes are cutout, pointed nose and stiletto heels. The first models of our shoes, boats, appeared in 1955. They were created by French designer Roger Vivier. The heel at that time reached no more than 8 cm. Salvatore Ferragamo, who made a 10 cm heel, made this boat popular. These shoes were made for Marilyn Monroe and her role in the film “Only Girls In Jazz”. After this picture, millions of women began to dream of such boats!

Despite the fact that this kind of shoes is one of the sexiest, some designers manage to spoil it. If you don't want to be a gray mouse and a girl without taste, always Pay attention to the depth of the cut of your shoes. The deeper the better. Footwear with a round neckline looks absolutely not stylish and is more suitable for grandmothers than for young and energetic natures.

In addition to the classic version of the shoes, there are models with an open nose, with an open heel or with a cut-out at the sides. Such models are considered the most feminine and if classic shoes can be combined with almost all items of clothing, then these options will look perfect with dresses and skirts.

Huge popularity received shoes Mary Jane. These are shoes with a strap and low heels. They owe their popularity to the Buster Brown comic. In it, the younger sister of the hero was depicted in shoes with a strap. The comics are so fond of readers that soon all the girls wanted to wear such shoes.

In the early 60s, this model received a second wave of fame, but already in adult girls. Millions of fashionistas wanted such shoes for themselves after seeing them on Twiggy, an icon of the style of that time.

Now the variety of this type of shoes is amazing. Various colors, an unusual type of heel, various variations of the strap can be found in shoe boutiques. Such shoes look especially stylish on a thick heel, and wearing them is much more convenient than boats. But there is one "but." Mary Jane shoes can visually shorten the length of the legs. To avoid this, you should choose the color of shoes as close as possible to the tone of your skin.

In addition to heels, there is also a wedge and platform. But many women of fashion do not like them very much, so the designers have developed so-called combined models. In such shoes only the front part of the shoe has a platform. And behind it goes into a heel.

The most popular among such models are “laputenes”. They are named after French designer Christian Louboutin. These shoes have a platform in the front, and then go into a stud. The main differences of this model are a very high heel and red sole.

Another type of shoes with heels are shoes for teens. At 14-15, girls especially want to look stylish. And how to do it without shoes with heels?

Naturally, it is still very early and harmful for adult models to wear a 15-centimeter heel for an immature body, but shoes with a comfortable heel of 4-5 cm will be just right.
