The talk about the difference between men's and women's running shoes got me to thinking (and it's about time!). Celtic people have wider feet than others and our smaller toes are closer in length to the larger ones. This gives a more squareish shape to the front of our feet. If shoes are designed to fit the feet of the rest of the population, this would give us cramped space for our smaller toes. I've always had trouble with my little toes getting sore and blistered in running shoes, so this may be the case.
Isn't it overdue for all Celts to rise up and demand equal rights for our feet? Take a good look at the length of your little toes and you may find evidence of a Celt hiding in your family tree (we get around).
