Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy play FBI agents in their new movie, “The Heat.” Acting as these characters means they need to wear proper footwear which serves them well. “I often start with what they wear on their feet,” said Catherine Marie Thomas, costume designer for the film. “Especially if they have to run [and perform] physical activity, like in this film.”

Thomas expresses the importance of balance between masculine and feminine style for these celebs using the right clothing for the two actresses. “They are completely willing to transform themselves, said Thomas.When it came down to Melissa’s character Thomas wanted to incorporate Adidas shoes because of her demanding physical role. “She’sjust so physical and always putting her foot up or tripping over things or running. It was very important that she could do that,” said Thomas.

It is important that the right shoes are worn for protection and guard against pain and discomfort. A podiatrist like Dr. Bryant Tarr of Sudbury & Westford Podiatry can make recommendations on how to care and find shoes that fit you, as well as help you with any foot pain you might have experienced from wearing ill fitting footwear.
