During the 14th century, Europe experienced a significant trend known as the "shoe craze," where there was a widespread demand for poulaines. Poulaines were pointed-toe shoes that could stretch up to an impressive 2 feet in length. Due to their impracticality for laborious work, these shoes were a luxury reserved for the wealthy elite. Interestingly, in medieval times, poulaines were considered highly alluring and associated with sex appeal for men. The fashion of that era involved shorter tunics, and young men would proudly showcase their legs, accentuated and elongated by these low-cut shoes with their long, pointed tips. However, the popularity of poulaines eventually led to a series of unfortunate consequences. The association with sodomy emerged, leading to disapproval from several European monarchs, who eventually banned them entirely. Despite these actions, the damage had already been done. The poulaines era triggered a significant increase in bunion cases across Europe, with the number of cases more than quadrupling within a short period. Recently, archaeologists have made intriguing discoveries, unearthing skeletons from that era that provide evidence of the severe bunion epidemic caused by the fashion trend of wearing poulaines. These skeletal remains paint a vivid picture of the extent of the bunion-related issues that afflicted individuals during that time.
