Basically, the best footwear for beaches, based on physics, is anything that has a large surface area, wide soles, and is lightweight and flexible.
By that logic, walking barefoot would also be comfortable due to natural pressure distribution and adaptability. Wait so are flip-flops also a good option then?
Diapositiva: 2
YES! Flip-flops are good because of the same reasons that high heels are bad!
Wider soles spread your body weight over a larger area, reducing the force your body applies to the ground. This decreases the pressure on the sand ensuring you don't sink in, thus making walking easier.
Wow so much effort just for choosing the right shoes! Why is walking on sand such a hassle?
Diapositiva: 3
Sand is soft,uneven and compressible. This increases the energy expended as your feet sink with each step and needs more effort to stabilize and propel yourself forward.
The lack of a firm surface means your feet will constantly move, creating an imbalance.
All of this is so interesting! It's weird how we follow the principles of physics without even knowing that it's all basic physics!
