Hotter Shoes says reveals one in three women carry extra pair of comfy shoes in case of pain
Women who work, rest and play are going to great lengths to remain on their feet longer, despite 81 per cent admitting to experiencing pain by wearing 'killer' heels on a night out. (EDITOR: That must be why they call them 'killer' heels) But don't think that it's just fashionistas suffering for their art as an incredible 46 per cent of women admitted to walking in comfortable shoes to meet friends then changing into killer heels at the last minute.
The study into the footwear choices of 2,000 women was conducted by comfortable shoe specialist, Hotter Shoes which is looking at what motivates women's shoe choices for occasions.
Lisa McCarten of Hotter Shoes said: "The research highlights the amount of pain women encounter in uncomfortable shoes but shows they are willing to do something about it – logically shoes that look good and feel fantastic are the answer."
She added: "We were astounded to find comfy shoes often being seen as 'handbag accessories' in women’s daily lives. Shoes shouldn’t have to be worn in - it should be a pleasure to put on a brand new pair of shoes not a pain. At Hotter we know that women want shoes that look good and make them feel fantastic whatever they are doing."
A staggering 84 per cent of women wear killer heels on a night out, despite only one in ten saying they can find comfortable high heels.
34 per cent of women anticipate experiencing pain from their shoes within an hour of leaving home and 60 per cent carry plasters because they expect a blister or cut. More than half have ended an evening bare foot as they couldn't walk further in their uncomfortable shoes.
Half of the women surveyed said they buy new shoes to take on holiday and almost 60 per cent of them have experienced pain whilst abroad.
One in three has had to buy another pair of shoes when out of the house due to the level of discomfort experienced in the shoes they were wearing. A third of women in the UK walk to work in a comfortable pair of flats before changing into heels at their desk.
FACTFILE:
The company, which was established in 1959, now has one of the most successful production facilities anywhere in the world. The 'Comfort Concept' in every pair of women's shoes includes features such as smooth internal seams; removable insoles; soft leather uppers and soft padding. The 1.7 million pairs of shoes that will be designed and made in Hotter's UK factory this year have shock absorbing soles which contain millions of air bubbles that make the shoes incredibly light and give a feeling of walking on air.
Hotter shoes makes a range of womens shoes and mens shoes that are designed to look stylish but secretly hide a raft of comfort features including padding at heels; roomy toe boxes and removable insoles. The shoes made in the Lancashire factory have polyurethane soles that contain millions of tiny air bubbles, making them incredibly lightweight, flexible and shock absorbing. The company also manufactures work shoes and extra wide shoes, as well as several other ranges.

Debenhams has revealed new research which suggests the female foot is getting bigger across the UK
With sales soaring, demand for size nine shoes has sparked a massive 80% increase in stocks at the department store.
But despite the growing trend, 82% of size eight and nine customers say they are ashamed of their shoe size, ironically most blokes in the UK are a size nine.
Merchandisers at the department store thought something was afoot when it was revealed that 67% of all size nines sold, are bought online as opposed to in store.
Carie Barkhuizen, Debenhams Spokesperson, said: "Buying shoes online can be a tricky feat which is why we decided to ask women why they were shopping behind closed doors. We were surprised to learn a case of cold feet was behind it all.
"It's even more surprising when you consider the host of celebrity women like Michelle Obama and Nicole Kidman proudly stepping out on their larger paws."
When asked to identify what part of shopping for shoes in store they found particularly uncomfortable, 64% said it was asking the shop assistant for their size and 36% said they hated taking their shoes off in public.
The survey also revealed that 47% of women had lied to their partners and friends about their shoe size.
To help combat this embarrassment, Debenhams has instructed stores to put more size eight and nine stock out on the shop floor for women to help themselves to.
Women needn't feel alone however, the average female shoe size has increased by one and a half sizes over the last 10 years; from four and a half in 1990 to a size six in 2011, and larger sizes are increasingly in demand.
The change is attributed to women's feet becoming broader rather than longer which experts believe may be due to an increase in average body weight as women grow taller.
Demand for size nines was highest in Dublin, followed by London, Birmingham, Glasgow and Newcastle.
Carie Barkhuizen continued: "If the current trend continues, then we will start stocking women's shoes in size ten and eleven too.
"Shoes with high heels, such as stilettos in larger sizes, have to be made much stronger with sturdier load bearing points, able to cope with greater levels of stress and wear.
"The materials and techniques now available means that the majority of shoes can made strong and comfortable enough in larger sizes which would have been unimaginable just ten years ago."
Celebrity women with larger feet include; Nicole Kidman (size 9), Jerry Hall (8), Paris Hilton (9), Michelle Obama (9), Kate Winslet (9) and Geena Davis (9.5).

Flexitol Callus Remover Cream gets rid of hard skin
Everyone has suffered from this at one time or another. You might be suffering now. Badly fitting shoes and socks, thin soled shoes and high heels cause pressure and friction at particular points on the feet.
The result? Calluses. Areas of thickened, hard and sometimes cracked skin, which can make walking or standing for long periods uncomfortable and potentially painful.
And the problem can be made worse by other factors including obesity, deformities or other problems with the feet. Left untreated, calluses can become a deterrent to normal day-to-day activities.
But Flexitol, a leading worldwide skincare brand, has an exciting new product that's aimed at helping melt away those patches of thickened, hard skin with results that you will be able to see within one week.
Calluses may be removed professionally by a podiatrist using a scalpel, but this is one thing you really should never try at home, especially when there is a new, clinically proven way to get rid of unsightly, calluses from the Flexitol footcare experts.
Flexitol Callus Remover Cream contains:
• AHAs (alpha hydroxyl acids) which are used in many skincare products to help remove dead skin cells and reveal healthier, softer, younger-looking skin. AHAs penetrate into the upper layers of the skin to break down dead, callused skin cells without harming the normal skin beneath.
• Urea, the moisturising substance found naturally in the skin. When the outer layer of the skin – the stratum corneum – loses moisture it becomes dry and it can become thickened, scaly and even cracked, but urea rehydrates the skin as it penetrates the stratum corneum, absorbing and retaining moisture.
The richly moisturising base helps the cream stay in place, giving it time to penetrate, hydrate and loosen dead skin cells.
Flexitol Callus Remover Cream is available in a 56g tube with a recommended retail price of £5.50.
