You’ve probably heard the phrase “Beauty is pain” more than once. And more than just hearing it, you’ve likely felt it countless times when your feet just can’t take any more of those shoes that, yes, are really cute, but feel like walking on knives with every step. Finding a good pair of shoes that are comfortable but also stylish and won't put a hole in your wallet is not easy. But don’t worry, today I’m bringing you a guide with tips for choosing the perfect shoe that’s stylish without sacrificing comfort. Beauty doesn’t have to be a sacrifice, beauty is meant to be celebrated and enjoyed.

Do Comfortable Women's Shoes Exist?

Yes, yes, and yes! Let’s start with this premise, not only do they exist, but they should always be comfortable!

The two most important factors that determine the comfort of women’s shoes are the design and the materials. Specifically, the padding, the sole, and the fit. The next time you go shopping, make sure the shoes you choose meet the following characteristics:

  • Soft material that fits well to the foot. Leather is undoubtedly the best option among materials to choose from. Leather has the ability to adjust to the shape of your foot without losing the shape of the shoe, making it a material that’s hard to beat.
  • Padded lining on the inside. Make sure the shoe has a comfortable insole. Leather insoles are preferable, as they prevent your feet from sweating and allow your skin to breathe naturally.
  • Flat sole or low heel. Yes, I know. Who doesn’t want to look 10 cm taller? Well, I’m sorry to tell you, but a 10 cm heel is not only impossible to make comfortable, but it will also be bad for your feet and posture in general. Opt for flat shoes or low heels when you want a few extra centimeters. Our Amelie with a heel is perfect for enhancing your figure without sacrificing comfort.
  • Sturdy sole. A good sole is just as important as the rest of the shoe. This is harder to spot at first glance, but the easiest way is to choose brands that are known for using high-quality materials.

Flat Shoes for Women, Why It's Important to Give Up the 10 cm Heel

Wearing comfortable shoes in your daily life is very important. And it goes beyond just keeping your feet happy. Wearing low-quality or uncomfortable shoes can lead to health problems not only for your feet but also for your back and the rest of your body. Blisters are one of the minor issues that can arise from wearing inappropriate shoes. Wearing high heels for long periods of time can alter the natural alignment of your back. Your body will try to compensate for the lack of balance caused by high heels by adjusting the posture of your back and hips. Your calves, back, and hip muscles will become tense. This muscle tension can lead to fatigue and damage to the ligaments in your back, joints, and spinal discs.

Flat shoes are not only a safe bet for your health but also for your style. You have to admit, they look gorgeous!
