From slip-on sandals to Kate's wedges: Are this summer's must-have shoes ruining your feet?

Wedges, often worn by the Duchess of Cambridge (pictured in Heidelberg, Germany 2017), are one of this summer's must-have shoes. But experts warn it could cause damage to your feet

While the Hermes sandal (pictured), and budget-friendly versions of it are popular - the main issue for wearers is the heel and ankle which is largely unsupported – a recipe for pain and injury ‘because the foot slides around easily’

Espadrilles have ample room for the foot to move about in, meaning blisters are less likely happen as the skin is less likely to rub on the material. But with little or no heel, they can trigger plantar fasciitis – heel pain caused by the tendon becoming inflamed
