So, turns out you’re probably wearing the wrong shoe size

So, we’ve all heard the phrase ‘size doesn’t matter’, but as it turns out, that may not always be the case. 

Or at least not when it comes to your shoe size anyway. 

According to a new study, the pain we suffer from wearing our high heels all night may actually be something to do with the fact almost half of us are wearing the wrong shoe size.

Research conducted by the College of Podiatry found that nearly half of all the women that were surveyed admitted to buying shoes that didn’t fit properly.

It’s thought that it probably has something to do with the rise in popularity of online shopping, which doesn't allow for trying things on first.

It’s also worth noting that our feet don’t necessarily stay the same size forever.

Even in adulthood they can change in shape and size, so chances are you've got a pair of shoes that don't fit anymore. 

We're not convinced that this is the only reason our feet hurt in high heels, but we'll try anything to ease the suffering.
