Eccentric, huge and oversized: these are the chunky sneakers! Their 1990s silhouette has been back on trend for a while now. Influencers and fashionistas like them very much. But chunky sneakers are not for everyone, as they are traditionally considered ugly and clunky shoes with a very sporty mood, to use an understatement. But what if, instead, the typical Ninenties trainers suddenly became beautiful and elevated?
British actor Kit Harington came to the public eye for playing Jon Snow in the popular small screen saga ‘Games of Thrones”. Much loved by female audiences, he is now considered one of the sexiest men in Hollywood, and no one would have guessed that Harington was no taller than 5’3″. The secret? A strategic look and a pair of elevator shoes on his feet.
You have always wanted to be taller but have never been interested in the possibilities that fashion offers to make this dream come true. Now, however, something tells you that the Internet can finally help you understand how to look taller.
Is it better to be short or tall? For short men who have always wanted to grow taller, the answer is obvious, but in recent times science is beginning to disprove the myth of height that society has imposed for hundreds of years. It turns out, in fact, that short stature, and by that we mean below average, can be an advantage both from a personal health point of view and from the point of view of the health of the planet.
Micam takes place every September in Milan. It is the leading international exhibition for the footwear industry, where there are national and international exhibitors from the sector.

September and October are the months of returning to work after the holidays. A period that is hard in some ways, because we get back into the rhythm of the usual routine, but it’s also a great opportunity for change. During the holidays, in fact, we have time to think about what we want from life and who we want to become. We can give ourselves the space to make plans for the future and rethink a new self.
Short stature can negatively affect adolescents’ self-esteem and thus affect their self-confidence in adulthood. This sounds like a true, established and hardly disputable statement. Yet a recent study conducted by researchers at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) makes us realise that things are not as straightforward and obvious as we think.
We all know Vin Diesel, the famous star of the popular “Fast & Fourius” film series that began in 2001, so beloved by fans of car racing and action cinema. But not everyone knows that the American actor does not put much effort into playing Dom Toretto thanks to his great passion for racing cars.
Now here’s a thing – your life tends to settle into a certain pattern and a comfort zone. There is no doubt that, particularly at the outset of adding height – working out how to find shoes that make you taller, your instinct is go on the low side, however much in an ideal world you want to go high. Stuff limits and restricts you, and it’s funny but in the past month a few of my contacts asking advice have raised this, querying: “OK I have had my elevators for 6 months: how much do you think I can go to, bearing in mind that normally I am just…”
Men’s shoes for warm weather are generally slimmer, lighter, lower on the ankle, and often open. This is why it is commonly believed that it is more difficult to achieve stature gain with internal elevating systems. But this is a false myth.
