Stiletto heel

DISADVANTAGES OF WEARING STILETTO HEELS!!

All high heels counter the natural functionality of the foot, which can create skeleton/muscular problems if they are worn excessively. Stiletto heels are no exception, but some people assume that because they are thinner they must be worse for you. In fact, they are safer to wear than the other extreme of high heel fashion, the platform shoe.[citation needed] Despite their impracticality, their popularity remains undiminished - as Terry DeHavilland (UK shoe designer) has said, "people say they're bad for the feet but they're good for the mind. What's more important?"
Stiletto heels undoubtedly concentrate a large amount of force into a small area. The great
pressure transmitted through such a heel (allegedly greater than that exerted by an elephant standing on one foot[4]) can cause damage to carpets and floors. The stiletto heel will also sink into soft ground, making it impractical for outdoor wear on grass.
