Sandals or Platforms?

Your footwear can speak volumes about the kind of person that you are and to this effect, while sandals are indicative of a dainty, formal and style conscious personality, platforms add a dash of fun to the usual dress code.

Sandals more versatile?

Sandals may or may not feature heels and in case they do, the wearer’s feet are likely to remain in arched position for the entire duration. This may not make much of a difference in the short-run but in the long run, you may damage your knees or ankles and suffer from severe consequences than you would have thought possible. However, the positive aspect about sandals is that you always have the option of deciding on the degree of heels and if stilettos make you nervous or uncomfortable, there is always the alternative of settling down for a flat practical pair.

What about platforms?

Platforms also feature heels but rather than being concentrated at one end, the heel is spread throughout the shoe, thus rendering it more balanced as compared to a sandal. Therefore, even though your feet are a few inches above the ground, it is well-poised on an even surface and this in turn greatly reduces probability of experiencing strain on any part of your leg. On the flip side, platforms are a little difficult to balance and hence it is important to get used to them before venturing out. Sandals have been around for a long time while platforms came into existence during the closing years of the twentieth century and have the versatility to complement any outfit, casual or formal.
