Wearing the wrong shoes can cause foot, back and neck pain.

A bad pair of shoes doesn’t just lead to foot pain, it can also cause problems throughout your body: “Your feet are the foundation of your body, and if they are not properly supported you can have problems anywhere from the bottom of your feet up through your neck,” according to the American Chiropractic Association’s Council on Sports Injuries and Physical Fitness. Choose your footwear wisely—if you have a long commute on foot, find a good pair of walking shoes that best mimics barefoot walking, then put your dress shoes on at the office! Tip: Keep comfortable shoes in your car trunk so that you can always swap uncomfortable shoes before or after work.
