Shoes and Feet - They Mean So Much To Us
When you arrive in the world you are blessed with perfect little feet and don't we all wish that we could have kept them in the pink?
Our feet are important to us. Just look around you; at shops full of shoes, pictures of shoes and feet, publicity on TV for footwear and foot care. See how often feet and shoes feature in films. You'd be surprised once you take notice.
We spend a great deal of time and money on our feet, shoes, stockings and socks. We take pride in our feet. Throughout history and across the world people have decorated their feet with patterns, tattoos and foot, toe and ankle jewellery. Feet play a part in every culture and feature in stories, legends, films, dance, drama and pictures through time and space.
Unfortunately our life style and age begin to tell on our feet and I'm afraid to say that very often we get the feet we deserve, (at least I have), but don't despair, it's never too late to improve matters and make your way towards beautiful feet.
My credentials: I'm not a foot expert, but as a lover of shoes in my youth, an artist, art historian and the wife of a podiatrist, I have long been used to taking a keen interest in feet, foot health and footwear, which is where this article on 'Everything About Feet' first came from. If you have anything to add, please leave a message in the comments box and I'll include it in this article.
One note of caution, people with certain conditions, diabetes for example, should be very careful about foot and leg treatments and footwear. Always consult your health professional.

Since then a few inventions have pushed on the developement of the shoe, such as the last, shoe making machines, shoe laces and rubber heels. Shoes today have come a long way since neolithic times, but I'm not so sure that they are better for our feet!

The Royal Wedding Shoes
Catherine Middleton stepped out in custom-made shoes by Alexander McQueen's Sarah Burton and her design team, creator of that wonderful wedding dress. The wedding shoes that Catherine wore for her walk down the aisle at Westminster Abbey were made with "ivory duchesse satin with lace hand-embroidered by the Royal School of Needlework," according to the Royal Web site. You can see a picture of the shoes here Catherine Middleton's wedding shoes
The child bridesmaids The Bridesmaids' shoes were designed and made by Devon-based Rainbow Club. They are the classic Mary Jane style, made from satin with a Swarovski crystal buckle. Devon-based Rainbow Club have been designing, making and colouring handmade wedding shoes since the mid-1980s.
Did you know that Edward Rayne made the shoes that the present Queen of England was married In? They were entirely hand made by skilled craftsmen and were beige pink sling backs with a medium heel and a bit of a platform. A replica pair of shoes was worn when Alan rayne's mother was married.

Dianas Wedding Shoes in Auction
Princess Diana's spare pair of wedding shoes - November 29th 2011
A replica of Diana's spare pair of wedding slippers were forcast to bring £70,000 at ayction. Princess Diana's wedding shoes were made by Clive Shilton on a specially constructed last, the size 6.5 shoes had to be altered several times as the then Lady Diana continued to lose weight before the wedding.
They were made at the same time as those worn on the big day and were identical in every way. The shoes were still 'Cinderella slippers', though not made from glass. Flat, because Diana was taller than Charles, they have the initials C and D and a heart inscribed on the soles, have ivory satin insoles, were top-stitched with a lattice design and sprinkled with 542 individually hand knotted mother of pearl sequins and 134 seed-pearl beads. The heart-shaped tabs piped in gold kidskin, applied with sequins and edged in pearl beads and Nottingham lace. Mr Shilton charged a handsome £6621.25 for them but was never paid, (the rich eh?).

Feet and shoes in stories, film and song
Shoes of one sort or another are rich in legend and feature strongly in folklore worldwide. These stories have been passed down through the ages and are still very much part of our culture. We all know the story of the Seven League Boots, the Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe, Mercury's Winged Sandals, Puss in Boots, Cinderella and so many others.
The magical dancing Red Shoes seemed to have a particularly strong role in our collective subconcious. Who doesn't feel the power of the image of the red ballet shoes?
Shoes feature prominently on TV too. Sex and the City are a fairly shoe-obsessed lot and Red Shoe Diaries began with the shoe! Can you think of any others?

Dance Shoes
Dance shoes are amonst the most beautiful shoes. How many little girls dream of becoming ballerinas and have posters and pictures of ballet shoes on their walls? Ballroom dancing is becoming more fashionable and these shoes are glamorous as well as functional.

Shoes the Musical
Combine dance, music song and shoes and here you have 'Shoes the Musical'! "After the smash-hit world premiere at Sadler's Wells, Richard Thomas and Stephen Mear's fabulously original new show, Shoes, transfers to the Peacock Theatre for a limited eight-week run. A celebration of one of the greatest passions of the modern age, Shoes is a song and dance spectacular that takes audiences on a journey from the lows of the croc via the agony and ecstasy of the stiletto, to the highs of the platform boot. Fresh from the pen of Richard Thomas (co-creator of Jerry Springer - The Opera) and the feet of top showbiz choreographer Stephen Mear (Sweet Charity, Mary Poppins), Shoes is a wickedly irreverent and affectionate look at the special power this seemingly innocuous item of clothing holds over many a shoe-addict." Quotation from Sadlers Wells The show features over 250 pairs by everyone from Georgina Goodman, Salvatore Ferragamo, to Finsk and L.K. Bennett; this is a veritable feast for the shoe addict.
Songs include 'A brief history of shoes'. Hear more in the interview with Richard Thomas, (who explains what an 'extreme heel' is), and shoe designer Emma Hope on Womans Hour, BBC Radio 4

The shoe in art
Over the centuries shoes have featured in still lives, portraits and portrayals of everyday life and continue to fascinate the artist to the present day.
Did you know that Leonardo da Vinci drew shoes designed to enable a person to walk on water?

The Devil Wears Prada Poster
I doubt that it is any coincidence that the poster for The Devil Wears Prada features a red, high heel shoe.
The psychology of the shoe and shoe fetish
As a child I was always so delighted when I was bought nice, new shoes, that I kept them under my bed and could hardly stop myself from having a peak to check that they were still there. As adults, many women, and perhaps men, take great delight in choosing and wearing shoes. Imelda R. Marcos, the Filipino politician and wife of the 10th Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos, is often remembered for her symbols of extravagance and it was her collection of 2700 pairs of shoes that has captured popular attention. Clearly, love of shoes is high on our cultural adjenda, but for some they have additional meaning and the line is crossed into Shoe fetishism.
To delve further into the psychology of shoes, we could look to Freud who saw stiletto-style pumps as some sort of phallic symbol, and by wearing them women can mitigate their inevitable "penis envy". Shoes clearly signal power, and certainly have something to do with sexuality.
Shoe fetishism, also known as retifism, after Nicolas-Edme Rétif, a French novelist, is, like foot fetishism, an erotic interested in shoes.

Lucky shoes
Shoes and superstition
When I moved into my farmhouse in Limousin, France, and began renovation work to create our Les Trois Chenes, I found wooden clogs under the floor boards, including this sweet little clog. It's a shame that I didn't include something in this photograph for scale as this little wooden shoe is only about 15 cm long and clearly made for a small child. Delighted with these tokens of times gone by, I proudly put them on display in the house. Imagine my disquiet when I found out that in the past shoes were put under the floor boards to bring luck to the house. It is on the top of my agenda to get them back under the floor! (Not that I'm superstitious, you understand). The custom of throwing the shoe after the newly wedded couple is another example in which the shoe was supposed to bring luck.There are many superstitions attached to shoes, and the link between shoes and good luck is strong. It is said to bring a traveller luck if you throw a shoe after them as they set off on their journey, shoes are tied behind the wedding car and we all know about putting horse shoes on the house to bring good luck.
In Tudor times in England people carefully placed their shoes upside down at night to prevent the pixies using them.
Our dog, Molly, tried her best to negate my efforts to make our house a luckier house. See just how she did it: Naughty Dog Stories from Les Trois Chenes

Children's shoes
Of course we all know the pressure that is put onto children at an early age to wear fashionable shoes rather than sensible ones, so what is a good parent to do?

Happy feet are healthy feet
- Athlete's foot: Fungal infections in between your toes
- Fungal infections in the nails which will appear yellow and rough
- Plantar warts, otherwise known as verrucas
If you answer 'yes' to any of these questions, you should see your doctor who will be able to prescribe medication that will quickly, easily and efficiently deal with the problem. Do remember that all three of these conditions are highly contagious, and you risk passing them onto those around you.
- Thickened, hard skin
- Corns
- Bunions
If you answer yes to any of these then see your podiatrist (chiropodist) who will be able to help.

Shoes for healthy feet
Did you know that shoe manufacturers make shoes half a centimeter larger than the man's foot but half a centimeter smaller for women's shoes? For me this shows that foot binding, albeit in a milder form than the original, is still alive and kicking today. Fight against this if you want to keep your feet, legs and back healthy. Make sure that you can spread your toes inside your shoes, choose materials and styles that let your feet breath, wear high heels only for the occasional night out and don't actually walk in them! Go barefoot where possible.
As for excercise shoes, they are selling well but the jury is still out as to weather they are effective.

The Final Word
It's clear from this brief resumé that, myths, erotic overtones, big business and sexual politics are all mixed up in our perceptions of our feet and footwear. Rise above it. Treat your feet sweet and put your best foot forward!

Wide Fitting Shoes
And shoes for bunions
Bunions are a problem as we age, but they can also occur in the very young. When the big toe moves toward the other toes, the joint is pushed out, the feet become wider, the other toes can be pushed up and corns can form on the pushed up toes and the little toe as the feet are crushed in shoes that are now too narrow.
What to do?
Get you feet measured, Clarks Shoes are famous for this, and buy suitably wide shoes with a nice, high toe box. Wear flat shoes made from good materials. Here are a few that I've found on the internet and high street in the UK.

Reflexology - are feet the key to your body's good health?
What is reflexology?"Reflexology is the practice of applying pressure to the feet and hands utilizing specific thumb, finger and hand techniques. It is based on a system of zones and reflex areas that reflect an image of the body on the feet and hands with a premise that such work effects a physical change in the body." Reflexology Reasearch
Does reflexology really work? Many people think it does but doctors and podiatrists have yet to be convinced. This diagram, though, clearly shows the areas of the feet that relate to various parts of the body and give a good idea of the thinking behind the practice.

One Day Without Shoes
April 10th 2012 is One Day Without Shoes day
April 10th is a day of awareness about feet and foot wear. It all started in 2006 when an American traveler, Blake Mycoskie, was moved when he saw children in Argentina without shoes to protect their feet. He created the 'One for One' movement and 'Tom's Shoes', a company that matches every pair of shoes bought with a pair of new shoes given to a child in need to help protect them from disease and injury.

The psychology of feet and foot fetishes
Freud considered foot binding as a form of fetishism and Casanova, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Thomas Hardy, amongst many others, were all considered to be attracted to the foot.
Foot fetishism has been defined as a sexual interest in the feet and/or footwear.

Worshippers of the foot
Lovers of feet
Bertold of Regensburg was one of the first people to note symptoms of podophilia, or love of feet and footware, in in 1220. The interest in feet seems to be very much with us today and is now said to be so prevelent that it can almost be classed as mainstream.

Your Feets Too Big was one of the songs that all our family loved when I was a child and it still makes me laugh out loud today. Cheer yourself, (or somebody else), up with this all time favourite classic.
The foot in art
A good example is the sculpture illustrated, Pan pulling a thorn from the foot of a satyr. It is a Roman copy from the 1st-2nd centuries, itself a copy of a Hellenistic original of the middle 1st century BC. Now in the Louvre. It looks to me for all the world as if Pan is tickling the satyr's foot! Tickling the feet crops up as part of the fetishism around feet.

Angelina Jolie

Hard to say, I never looked as far down as their feet, but if the rest of their bodies is anything to go by, I would have to say Angelina Jolie.
SuperZoe says:
I say Angelina but I think Jennifer's are very pretty as well and she has such great legs!
LadyEnglish says:
Hard to choose, but in the end I'd go for Angelina. What do you think and why?
Angels Feet

Feet and shoes feature in our use of language
It started with 'toe the line'. I saw this expression written down, (in TheGirl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Steig Larsson) and realised that I had always imagined that it was tow the line. According to Wikipedia, 'the most likely origins of the term go back to the usage of the wooden ships in the Royal Navy. Barefooted seamen had to stand at attention for inspection and had to line up on deck along the seams of the wooden planks, hence to "toe the line"'.
For better of worse, that started me thinking about all the other references to shoes and feet in the English language. One of the most obvious is using the foot as a unit of measurement. I still think in yards, feet and inches, although I'm not too bad at meters and centimeters.
What about Cockney rhyming slang? Plates of meat - feet. Other sayings that I came to mind are: feet of clay, pull your socks up, put your best foot forward, knock the socks off, put a sock in it, bless its little cotton socks, to dip you toe in the water, digg your heels in, kick the bucket, put your foot in your mouth .... I'm sure I'll think of many more. Do you have any ideas?

- Gosh, I can remember my grandma saying at the end of day, "oh my, my poor feet!" And I echo that sentiment. As a young gal, I tried ballet ... and the toe shoes didn't like me. Then came high heels. Yikes! Now, with three foot surgeries behind me, my fancy shoes are a thing of the past. Protect those little footsies!
