After a long working day of 8 hours (or more), with hardly any chance to sit down, one may believe a flat pump is the right survival shoe. However, most of us end up with painful ankles and excruciatingly sore feet. Apparently, extremely flat shoes end up straining the Achilles tendon, and also our calf muscles.

The key to the problem? Mix and match, alternate heels, shapes and styles.
