There is nothing worse than wearing an uncomfortable pair of shoes. Yesterday's woman suffered the agony of cramped feet forced into unnatural walking positions for the sake of fashion.The comfort and ergonomic attributes of sports shoes are gradually creeping into dressy and office shoes. Flats with the bottom made of one flexible piece are in: rigid soles are out. It's like marrying a dress shoe with a sneaker. The sole is decorated by patterns of swirls; indentations and ridges that provide safe grip on slippery floors and give a cushioning effect. But today's woman doesn't have time to stagger along on stiletto heels any more; she is demanding fashionable shoes that are comfortable and take her quickly through her day. And shoe manufacturers are listening at long last.
Shoes are undergoing a fashion revolution led by Prada. The comfort and ergonomic attributes of sports shoes are gradually creeping into dressy and office shoes. Flats with the bottom made of one flexible piece are in: rigid soles are out. It's like marrying a dress shoe with a sneaker. The sole is decorated by patterns of swirls; indentations and ridges that provide safe grip on slippery floors and give a cushioning effect.
Heels are getting lower - without looking like granny shoes - and toes are getting wider. No more blisters and bunions! The inside of the shoe is also changing to provide comfort and a healthy environment for feet to live in. Stretchy fabrics, cushioned straps, and cushioning layers of memory foam all make shoes a delight to wear. It's about time too. Attractive shoes that don't cripple our feet have been needed for a long time.
