The most dangerous shoes for drivers’ health are rubber boots. Yana Nazarenko, therapist at the Medsi Clinic in Fedosino, talked about this in an interview with socialbites.ca.
“Some drivers put on rubber boots before hitting the road and think their feet will stay dry. However, this is far from true. Rubber is a material that definitely does not allow moisture to pass through, but it also does not allow air to pass through. During the trip, the feet sweat, a moist environment is created in the shoes, which contributes to the development of colds as well as fungal infections,” said Yana Nazarenko.
You can’t drive for more than two hours in these boots. They are often worn with warm linings. Under the influence of external temperature, the outside of the shoes remains cold, and a small free warm area is formed inside between the boots and the lining. The doctor explained that this difference in temperature translates into humidity.
