This article talks alot about the inherent dangers of very high heels, stating that 2 inches is a reasonably safe heel height for normal wear. The tightening of the calves can be balanced by daily stretches. I hope Lady Gaga hears that.
But, this article also introduced me to the Flatform. I hope this can become a strong fashion trend. Looks safer!!
