My feet are wide and I have somewhat high arches so when I have not worn supportive shoes, I have developed 'corns' on my pinky toes and have not been able to sleep at night or walk on my feet without extreme crippling pain for a day or so after a long shift. What I do now is switch shoes throughout the day where I will start out wearing Dansko (supportive for my arches, realigns my bones and my posture but constricting on my toes and no able support) then switch to wide-width Sketchers (supportive for my toes and ankles but no arch or realignment support).

But unlike his contemporary Jimmy Choo, he is not about to collaborate with the likes of Ugg any time soon.<br /><br />The designer has revealed that he has a strong aversion to the notion of comfort, likening it to a bad relationship.<br /><br />He told the New Yorker: 'I HATE the whole concept of comfort!<br />Well heeled: Top shoe designer Christian Louboutin says he has a strong aversion to the idea of comfort, likening it to a bad relationship<br /><br />Well heeled: Top shoe designer Christian Louboutin says he has a strong aversion to the idea of comfort, likening it to a bad relationship<br /><br />'It's like when people say: "Well we're not really in love but we're in a comfortable relationship." You're abandoning a lot of ideas when you're too into comfort.'<br /><br />'Comfy, that's one of the WORST words! I just picture a woman feeling bad, with a big bottle of alcohol, really puffy. It's really depressing, but she likes her life because she has comfortable clogs.'<br /><br /> Mr Louboutin went on to describe how his footwear is designed more for men than it is for women - one of the purposes of his signature red lacquer sole.<br /><br />'The core of my work is dedicated not to pleasing women, but to pleasing men,' he explained.<br /><br />'Men are like bulls. They cannot resist the red sole.'<br /><br />'The core of my work is dedicated not to pleasing women, but to pleasing men. Men are like bulls - they cannot resist the red sole'<br /><br />He is equally observant of his female customers though, noting that they never even look at their feet when trying on a pair.<br /><br />'When a woman buys a pair of shoes, she never looks at the shoe. She stands up and looks in the mirror, she looks at the breast, the ass, from the front, from the side, blah blah blah.<br /><br />'If she likes herself, then she considers the shoe.'<br /><br />Though Mr Louboutin does sell flat shoes and sandals in his boutiques, they are highly decorative, designed with style, rather than comfort in mind.<br /><br />Secret to seduction: The designer, whose shoes have a signature red lacquer sole, says he designs his shoes for men more than he does for women<br /><br />Though his shoes command top dollar, Mr Louboutin remains uncompromising about the type of woman he designs for.<br /><br />'I'll do shoes for the lady who lunches, but it would be, like, a really nasty lunch, talking about men. But where I draw the line, what I absolutely WON'T do, is the lady who plays bridge in the afternoon.'<br /><br />Describing his witty, rock-n-roll aesthetic, he added: 'Really good taste, you have to forget about it.<br /><br />'We have a phrase in French: "Le petit quelque chose qui fout tout par terre," which means: "The little thing that f**** everything up."'<br /><br />Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1369014/I-HATE-concept-comfort--Christian-Louboutin-wearing-flat-shoes-like-bad-relationship.html#ixzz3DNUCtUWy<br />Follow us: @MailOnline on Twitter | DailyMail on Facebook<br /><br /><br />So ultimately, we women designed the market too, we wanted to be beautiful 'for men', some men observed this and gave us what we asked for.<br />Plus, since men have historically ben he ones with the most dough, if shoes were pleasing to them, they would support the purchase - which is what has been shaping our world the most, consumerism, making dollars on our insecurities and flaws, until our imaginary flaws turn real, physical, like deformed feet.Eleonora Gozzinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02852568561324862266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389513983104024468.post-62670377176839586132013-09-25T21:16:02.566-07:002013-09-25T21:16:02.566-07:00Yes - time we take responsibility for the relation...Yes - time we take responsibility for the relationship we have taken for granted - thanks for sharing this!Kristina Salashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13042983577743921210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389513983104024468.post-63299412697862802502013-09-25T01:48:16.487-07:002013-09-25T01:48:16.487-07:00thanks for sharing, Kelly.
