Heels originally came from Persia, where they were used in the shape of small wooden blocks which the people fastened below their sandals in order to keep the feet as high above the level of the burning sand as possible. At first they were only about an inch high for men and women alike. Soon, however, the ladies favoured fabulous sizes, reaching up to as much as nine inches. A few years ; later on, these heels were brought to Venice, where they became the fashion. They were called chapineys, and were ornamented and decorated in every possible style and shape that cobblers could dream of. The*height of the chapineys showed the rank of the wearer, and finally they attained such dimensions that many fashionable ladies were quite unable to walk.
