Wedge boots are high boots, like boots with heels. These heels, on the other hand, form a single block with the sole. The weight of the body thus rests on a larger surface.
By filling the space between the sole and the heel, wedge boots retain the advantages of high heels, without the disadvantages! More stable, they better distribute the weight of the body, reducing the risk of falling or injury. More comfortable, they reduce the pressure on the tips of the feet and put less stress on the ankles. The bonus? Wedge boots are trendy and come in both thigh-high and ankle boots, for all body types!
Elegant and feminine, wedge boots can be worn with a skirt to go to work, over denim at the weekend, under a dress for a dinner with friends or a night out on the town. Their comfort and stability will allow you to stand all day or run between two meetings, without suffering and without falling! As for those who find it difficult to walk in high-heeled boots, wedge boots offer them the solution. Day or night, the boot is for all occasions!
Even offset, your boots must display the right height, otherwise you will hurt your feet and damage your back:too much curvature impacts the joints and unbalances the posture, with harmful effects on the lower back. For optimal comfort, choose wedge boots with a heel height of 5 to 8 cm. If you swear by stilettos, do not exceed 12 cm, already important, or choose wedge boots with pads. By cheating on the sole, these boots make you gain height without accentuating the arch of the foot. In any case, try on the boots and walk for a few minutes. At the slightest pain, change the model!
The instructions for boots also apply to wedges:the more the boots are worked, the more the silhouette must be neutral. In other words, avoid leather mini-dresses if you choose wedge thigh-high boots, unless you want to! Opt for contrasts, wearing well-detailed wedge ankle boots with simple, plain jeans, or biker boots with a short skirt. Still hesitating about how to match your boots? For an unmistakable silhouette, bet on skinny jeans tucked into the boots and a pretty V-neck sweater. For a dressy silhouette, count on a black pencil skirt with a soft top or the same sweater, as well as opaque tights if your ankle boots are low. Done!
