    MatPat is the only one who can make a whole theory video out of the way someones foot is shaped-
  • @BennyFireKing
    Do I wear heels? No. Do I plan to start wearing heels? No. Did I still test my ideal heel hight after watching this? Yes.
  • @claraholt8870
    As a ballet dancer who does pointe around 4ish times a week for around an hour, this video was hilarious and a little terrifying.
  • @haltoucey9142
    Tbh I went into this thinking "What am I gonna learn about this" but then I remembered that I trained for 13 years to stand in my feet like Barbie one purpose without heels... ballet is a hell of a drug
  • @coolwater9515
    What's more broken is Barbie made a shortage of pink paint all around the world
  • @ellespoonies
    But, Matt, what if I do want a chronic illness Barbie? That would be true representation for me, after all.
  • @akun0
    Fun fact: someone i know is obbsesed with weraring high heels, she wears high heels sandals in the house, high heels shoes when she goes to work (and she runs/walks fast in her evryday work) and just basicly wears some evrywhere.... so much so that her feet hurts when she wears "normal" running shoes
  • @TheRectorscale
    With all this in mind, I’m curious to see what you have to say about the “barefoot shoe” movement, which completely ditches the heel to encourage the arches of your feet to support themselves. I’ve noticed that since switching to minimalist shoes, my feet, and arches, have become stronger, not weaker.

    But that’s just me
  • @livtempleton
    My mum was a dancer and spent most of her teens and adult life in high heels. As she got older, she of course thought flats were more sensible… and it caused seriousss pain. Turns out that her Achilles tendons had indeed shortened and tensed over the years.
  • As someone with a high arch, I can say that wearing a supportive heel or wedge is more comfortable than wearing vans or converse.
  • @lucalopez9604
    I would love a whole episode about the right shoe for you. As someone that hates wearing shoes with a passion and has never gotten one that feels comfortable, it would be an interesting topic.
  • @fernandolovesyou
    Birkenstocks are usually made with cork, which do absorb the impact of the foot, and in Birkenstocks especially they have arch support, which make it one of the better sandals to wear. 7:10
  • @jelanibyrd5031
    I'm kinda surprised you guys never went over shoe shape and how it affects the feet. The heel might not be the issue but what the shape of the toe of the shoe definitely has an impact on your health.
  • @Sly-Moose
    Out of all the flat soled shoes they could have offered her, they pick the ugliest kind of shoe to offer her?! 🤦 There are so many cute flat soled shoes out there!
  • @InuMokuba
    Now it's making sense. I've always heard conflicting information, some saying we should go back to when we had no shoes(so shoes like Zero shoes) because the foam and arch support makes our feet weaker, but then like you mentioned the impact of the ground wears down the bottom of our foot. So it's hard to tell which advice to take.
  • @m0thernature730
    6 and 1/2 inches… I wore a 4 inch heal with an inch lift once and my parents looked at me like I was crazy when I told them it felt comfortable. I’m not crazy it’s just my foot. Thank you matpat
  • @shesnotallthat
    The movie hasnt even been released and MatPat is already cooking up theories-
  • @thatonearanara
    This actually helped me learn about how much I need to try high heels… and also about my foot posture I guess.
