My take on the “Barbie foot” trend. In short, don’t try this at home kids. “It would not be an easy thing to achieve, that’s for sure,” said Dr. Priya Parthasarathy, a podiatrist and spokesperson for the American Podiatric Medical Association. @chrissyteigen @APMA @WSJ
Like many other unattainable attributes Barbie embodies, her high-arched balancing act isn’t something just anyone should try at home, experts say on.wsj.com/41lPWUX

Ugly-cool shoes *made* it, @amandamull writes. They’re the rare lasting change in how millions of people dress. And everyone’s feet might be better off for a long time because of it. theatlantic.com/technology/a…

Chunky sneakers get the incisive @amandamull treatment! I love this + am def part of the trend Once I did tempt fate trying too hard for cool AND comfy: veered from Hoka for a pair of Reebok x Cardi Bs. Aimed at teens not 40yos, they were just HEAVY theatlantic.com/technology/a…

One useful thing that @drpvaljee mentioned to me in our interview but that didn't make the article: If you wanna know if a new shoe has decent support or if your old shoes are cooked, see if you can fold them in half. If you can, get different shoes. theatlantic.com/technology/a…

A decade ago, "normcore" popularized bulky, ugly-cool dad shoes among young people. Now, @amandamull writes, those young people are entering middle age themselves, and those comfy shoes aren’t going anywhere. on.theatln.tc/hQGJQma

Yes!! Always trust @drpvaljee’s pain prevention recs. Thrilled that @TheAtlantic readers get a dose of her wisdom too👟💯
I wrote about how orthopedic shoes became enduringly cool. After a decade of normcore, this is what happens when young, cool people grow up and get back pain. theatlantic.com/technology/a…
