Is it Sexy to Have Foot Pain?
In a recent study by Hebrew Senior Life Institute for Aging Research, it was found that shoe types could be associated with foot and ankle pain.

Of the 3300 men and women studied, 60 percent of women reported wearing "poor" shoes in the past (compared to 2 percent of men) and at least 13 percent said they currently wear "poor" shoes.
