Love is not always a two-way street!
I love wearing high heels, but some high heels don’t love me. So I asked Google AI how to prepare my feet for my next pair of pumps. Here is what Google offered on the subject.
To prepare your feet for high heels, ensure your toenails are trimmed properly, address any foot issues like bunions or callouses, wear comfortable flat shoes beforehand, stretch your feet regularly, consider using shoe stretchers to widen the fit, opt for heels with a thicker base for stability and always break in new heels before wearing them for extended periods.
Key steps:
Foot care: Trim toenails, treat any ingrown nails and remove calluses or corns.
Pre-wearing routine: Wear comfortable flat shoes for a while before putting on heels.
Stretching exercises: Perform foot stretches to improve flexibility and range of motion.
Choose the right heels: Opt for heels with a thicker base for better balance and stability.
Shoe fitting: Ensure the heels fit properly and aren’t too tight.
Shoe stretchers: Use shoe stretchers to widen the shoe if necessary.
Break-in period: Wear new heels for short periods at first to gradually adjust your feet.
Insoles and cushions: Consider adding insoles or heel cushions for extra comfort.
Having worn high heels for over 60 years, I knew most of what the AI recommended, but I did learn a thing or two, too.

ReplyDeleteGood info Stana, but they forgot a key piece: take sitting breaks!

I never seem to have any luck wearing heels without some sort of hosiery. A pair of shoes will fit perfectly fine if I'm wearing pantyhose, but the second I try to wear that same shoe barefoot, it's like the shoe shrunk a few sizes! I'm curious if anyone else has this issue or if it's just little ol' me👠
