Live watch party and discussion with Petra Fisher - movement specialist.

Ten years after a boring bunion surgery I was told was... inevitable, I stumbled on a video showing what feet look like inside a modern shoe. And it looked suspiciously like my foot BEFORE my surgery. One question followed: did shoes cause this? What started as a hunch became a global investigation into 245 years of ignored science, a health crisis bigger than diabetes, and a trail of uncomfortable answers that reveals a blind spot we've all been walking around in — literally. Stupid Shoes follows foot and shoe professionals around the world to expose how everyday cultural and economic choices quietly created one of the possibly most expensive, most ignored health problems of our time. A multi-billion dollar burden on economies. A silent tax of chronic pain on bodies. And questions the trust we put in systems we believe will put our wellbeing before profit.

Stupid Shoes

An investigative journey that uncovers how a 500-year-old design flaw has created a silent, multi-billion dollar public health crisis, and why nobody seems to care.

Our shoes are messing us up - so getting into foot friendly minimal shoes seems like a no-brainer. But after years in conventional stupid shoes, our feet need more than just new shoes. They need new patterns, new mobility and lots of time to adapt safely. That's what we're going to cover in our chat after watching the movie!&nbsp;

Shoes. They are the most ordinary thing we own. In every closet, on almost every foot on Earth, worn without a second thought. Stupid Shoes is an investigation into what they've quietly done to us — and why 245 years of answers never reached us.
