Gladiator sandals rejected by podiatrists

This summer one of the most prominent trends is at the feet of women. One must always sandal, low or high wrapped up with feet uncovered tapes or bands.

A type of accessory that is depopulating few years are the famous gladiator sandals: that is, as everyone knows by now, very low shoes with straps or ribbons that wrap around the foot or even the calf.

Aesthetically they are really sexy shoes, but podiatrists are not experts strongly disagree with the use of these accessories, though more often than doctors criticize the heels.

In short, it would take a middle ground, because the shoe is not healthy for flat feet and legs. In essence, the gladiator sandals could easily result in stretching of the Achilles tendon, in addition to seriously damage the muscles of the calf. This is because the flat shoes do not absorb shock, as does a shoe with a heel of medium height. Who wears this type of footwear could even acknowledge pain after the first two weeks.
