Don't buy them: 10 types of fashionable shoes that are actually very impractical and can even cause health problems.
This spring, we saw a lot of new footwear trends. Famous influencers helped popularize loafers, ballet flats, and basic white sneakers.
However, even the usual types of shoes often turn out to be impractical, Bright Side writes. Buying such models can be not only a waste of money but also cause health problems.
White sneakers
To keep white shoes looking beautiful, they need to be cleaned from stains and dust regularly. And it seems like a normal thing to do. But if we talk about snow-white sneakers, it turns out that keeping them in order is not so easy. Some experts suggest replacing white shoes with more practical ones.
Patent leather shoes
Patent leather shoes are subject to wear and tear and may crack. To extend its service life, it is recommended to lubricate the leather with special moisturizers. Or give preference to similar models but without a lacquer coating.
Sandals
Sandals do not provide the necessary support. Wearing them can lead to sprains, and subsequently to tendonitis and inflammation of the tendons. A better option would be sandals that have an ankle strap. They will provide better foot stability during long walks. Doctors also recommend choosing models with a sole that bends only under the toes, but not in the middle
Sandals with ties
Sandals with ties and metal fittings look elegant in the photo, but sometimes they are not very comfortable because the feet are not properly fixed. And stability and a tight fit at the ankle are important, especially if the shoes are heeled.
Wedge shoes
The rigid soles of wedge shoes often interfere with the natural movement of the feet when walking. The situation can be particularly unpleasant when the heel is raised much higher than the toe. This puts additional pressure on the metatarsal bones.
Clogs
In 2024, clogs are making a triumphant comeback in fashion. And although many people are delighted with the variety of types of these shoes, you should think twice before buying them. The fact is that clogs can cause back pain, and sometimes joint wear and tear, and even ingrown nails. Therefore, it is better not to choose models with too high heels and platforms.
Fabric espadrilles
Fabric shoes quickly get dirty and lose their shape. A typical example is fabric espadrilles. Experts even suggest taking espadrilles a size smaller because they will stretch over time. Such shoes can be useful on vacation or in warm climates, but leather models will still be more reliable.
Closed shoes in summer
Many people wear sandals in the summer. However, sometimes walking in closed shoes can be just as comfortable. The main thing is to choose the right one. For example, you should avoid shoes made of dense synthetic or waterproof materials. They may protect your feet from external moisture, for example, in the rain, but they will retain unnecessary sweat.
Metallic
Although metallic shoes are in fashion and look good with any outfit, think carefully before buying such a pair. First, such shoes quickly lose their relevance. And secondly, this coating can be easily damaged by scratches.
Shoes with jewelry
Rhinestones or other small decorations often start to fall off. This can ruin the whole look of your shoes. If you still want something spectacular, you can try models of bright colors.
