The study classified shoes into three groups: Good (athletic or casual sneakers), average (hard- or rubber-soled shoes, work boots), and poor (high heels, sandals, slippers).

The results showed that about 30% of women in the study had generalized foot pain on most days. However, women who wore good shoes were 67% less likely to develop foot pain than those who wore average shoes.

Men are not as susceptible to foot pain as women due to obvious reason: Only 2% of them wore poor shoes.

So next time you are temped to try on a pair of high heels, knowing that pretty shoes may cost you more than you have realized.
