15 Reasons Flats Are Miles Better Than Heels

By Minq Team
ZoFot

Anyone who has worn flats or heels knows there is a great deal of comfort difference between the two. But is that enough of a reason for someone to abandon heels altogether and stick with flats? If you don't think so, read on to find several more reasons that will have you hanging up your heels.

Medically Preferred

Flats are doctor recommended. Excessive use of heels can lead to unsightly and possible permanent foot deformities. These can include “pump bump” and bunions.

Convenience

Flats can be more convenient. Ever had to run to catch a taxi in a high heel, its not the easiest task. A flat can enable you to not only run a bit faster but can also help avoid an injury.

Dancing

Flats will have you dancing through the night. Instead of winding up in a chair halfway through. Flats are way better for dancing feet.

Less Injuries

Heels can cause injuries. Due to the unnatural position of the foot, while wearing heels, a large number of women stumble and suffer from ankle strains and other injuries. They also have the potential for causing hairline fractures to the delicate bones in the foot.

Happier Toes

Toes will suffer too. The toes can get squished in any pointy toed shoe but add the incline of an unnaturally high heel and the toes suffer further. This can cause pain as well as toe deformities.

Better For Events

Stick to flats for events. Weddings and parties do not tell the type of venue they are being held at. Being prepared with a pair of flats will ensure that there will be no embarrassments or injuries from unfamiliar terrain.

Low Maintenance

Flats are low maintenance. Repairing a broken heel seems inevitable when someone owns a pair of heels. However flats do not require such upkeep .

Cheaper

Flats are often less expensive. A pair of flats by the same designer may cost as little as half of what its heel sister does. Just think: you could buy two pairs of flats for the proce of one pair of heels!

Versatile

Flats are versatile. Wear them to work then wear them home from the gym. They even look cute with yoga pants and who wants to wear their sweaty gym shoes?

Exercise

Flats will help burn calories. You will surely be able to stay moving this and the next day if you opt for flats over heels.

Less Blisters

Flats cause less blisters. This will certainly save on the Band-Aid supply. It will also enable you to wear those cute shoes day after day.

Less Noisy

Clip-clop, clip-clop. Ever tried to be sneaky in a pair of heels? It will never work.

Day To Night

Flats go from day to night easily. Wear them with work wear then slip into a pair of jeans for a more casual afternoon look. They pair well with all sorts of looks.

Regular Height

Flats will not leave you towering over others. Even if you are not the tallest of people heels sometimes leave you feeling like a giant. Stick with flats if you want to feel more comfortable.

Perfect For Blind Date

Ever gone on a blind date? Wearing a pair of flats ensures that (hopefully) you will not be taller than your date. Plus if you have to run…
