Footwear Can Make or Break You, Literally!Posted by arun on July 15th, 2015 Yes, you read the title absolutely right. The kind of footwear you have on your feet speaks a lot about your personality and taste. They didn’t say for nothing that a man is judged by his shoes and you can extend that to include women as well. Does that explain the reason behind splurging on the footwear for party? Of course you want to set the town on fire by grabbing all the attention and a carefully chosen pair of shoes can go a long way in helping you do that. From high heels and stilettos to pumps and wedges, there is a range of choices you can go for and make that one statement.

So, despite the fact that the lower back pain and hurting knee are fallouts of modern lifestyle, those footwear for party that you love to splurge on may be a major culprit.
