Killer Shoes
July 20th, 2006
Wide high heels may feel comfortable and seem safe, but they can cause even more danger to your knees than spiky high heels. Reason? Women tend to wear them for longer periods of time and walk longer distances in them than they would in stilettos.
High heels put pressure on your knees and may be related to osteoarthritis. While large studies are needed to determine how high is too high (one study looked at 2-inch heels), one thing is for sure: The less time you spend in heels – wide or skinny – the better.
