in the 10th century, men in europe adopted the now-gendered fashion choice of heels to make it easier to ride their horses: adding heels to their boots made it easier to stay in their stirrups. as slate explains, "the persian cavalry wore inch-high heels, and the trend spread to europe. since they showed that the wearer owned and maintained horses, high heels became associated with the upper class."
i had no idea it was out of style.
this changes everything.
