Shoes are an essential item in our lives, and everyone has several pairs. However, there are three types of shoes that are not recommended to be worn regularly, so which are the three exactly?
The first is a slipper made of foam. This kind of slippers are usually cheap, a few dollars or a dozen dollars a pair, and are mainly used for indoor wear. However, due to the low price, there is a strong odor when you buy it. It is only after a period of use that the odor disappears completely. These shoes, which are made entirely of foam, have a strong ability to absorb sweat and are suitable for sweating easily or in summer.
However, once sweat enters the shoes, it is difficult to drain it, and long-term wear can easily lead to athlete's foot. In addition, such shoes are also prone to absorbing dust. If you have to buy foam slippers, it is recommended to choose a darker color, such as brown or black, which will look more resistant to dirt. White shoes, on the other hand, are easy to get dirty, and after wearing them for a while, the heel will turn yellow or black, so they are no longer suitable for wearing.
The second type is shoes with very thin soles. These shoes are very comfortable to wear, but the soles are so weak that when we walk, about 60% of gravity is concentrated on the heels. If you wear these shoes for a long time, it can cause damage to the knee joint. It is advisable to buy shoes with thicker soles for more comfort and better protection of the knee joint, especially if you wear them for long periods of time.
The third type is shoes that do not have anti-slip lines. These shoes are very comfortable to wear, and there will be non-slip lines on the soles when you first buy them. However, after a period of wear, these lines disappear. At this time, if you wear such shoes without anti-slip marks, it is easy to slip and fall when you encounter muddy ground in summer, which is very dangerous for the elderly and children at home. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone do not wear such shoes without anti-slip lines.
If there are anti-slip lines on the shoes or the lines are badly worn, it is advisable to throw them away in time and buy a new pair. Especially when buying shoes for the elderly and children, choose non-slip shoes with deep lines. I believe that every family will have one or two pairs of the above three types of shoes, and if there is, it is recommended that you do not wear them again.
