As a result, my wife didn't find it hard to walk in high heels. On the contrary, she seems to walk gracefully, and every passing man looks at her. So many fashionable women rushed to buy such shoes. Since then, the height and width of high-heeled shoes have changed from time to time, but the enthusiasm for high-heeled shoes has been enduring.
It was not until the end of 16 that high heels became a fashionable thing for nobles. Some short men began to look taller with high heels. Thicken the heels of high-heeled shoes and reduce the height appropriately to become daily high-heeled shoes suitable for men. One of the most famous is the short Louis XIV. In order to make himself look taller, more powerful, more confident and more authoritative, he asked the shoemaker to install a 4-inch heel for his shoes and paint the heel red to show his distinguished position.
In the18th century, high heels have become an important element of fashion for men and women. At this time, the high heels are 3 inches high, the shoes are quite slender, and the heels and soles are integrated. If you have the opportunity to walk in the streets of17th century, you will find that pedestrians on the streets are wearing the same style of shoes, because the shoe-making technology at that time can only create one style of high heels.
Extended data
The harm of high heels to women;
(1) Shoes with proper heel height are worn on the feet, and the weight of the whole body is borne by the whole foot. Because the high heel design of high heels does not conform to human mechanics, the front part is tight and narrow. After wearing high heels, the body will lean forward, the weight of the whole body will fall on the soles of the feet, and the stress will be concentrated on the toes and uneven, and the aponeurosis of the soles will be connected with the tarsal bones and heels respectively. Wearing high heels will make the palm out of balance, destroy the normal load line of gravity transmission, and involve the knee and waist to bear pressure. If you don't pay attention, it will not only cause foot pain and sprain.
(2) When standing and walking in high heels, the weight of the human body will be concentrated at 1 of the forefoot to the third metatarsal bone. At this time, the toes will also be squeezed by the toe cap, forming pressure points on the footsteps, and corns and thick cocoons will appear if you keep rubbing. In severe cases, neuromas will also form between metatarsals, so there will be persistent and repeated pain symptoms.
(3) Ankle sprain is almost a necessary link to wear high heels, and many people will sprain their feet if they are not careful. When normal people walk and exercise, their ankles often turn inward, which is why the outside of shoes is always worn first. This shows that people themselves are constantly adjusting this rotational force to maintain balance in the process of exercise. After wearing high heels, this adjustment ability will be greatly weakened, which is very easy to cause ankle sprain. Moreover, the higher the heel, the greater the potential energy of turning inward and the more serious the injury.
