Any parent who has raised a child who has loved Legos must have experienced the surprise pain of stepping on a single Lego brick at some point while raising his or her child. Ad agency Brand Station has combined efforts with Lego to combat this problem by creating Lego slippers to protect the feet from such pain. The Lego-branded slippers come with an extra-thick sole and sport the Danish toy company’s classic colors of red and yellow. They also imitate the Lego brick with their rectangular shape. Only 1,500 pairs of these Lego slippers are being made and will be given away to customers who create a wish list on the Lego France website.

Everyday Foot Care
Often, people take care of their bodies, face, and hair more so than they do for their feet. But the feet are a very important aspect of our bodies and one that we should pay more attention to. After all, without our feet, we would not be able to perform most daily tasks. It is best to check your feet regularly to make sure there are no new bruises or cuts that you may not have noticed before, for example.
For dry feet, moisturizer can easily be a remedy and can be applied as often as necessary to the affected areas. Wearing shoes that fit well can also help you maintain good foot health, as well as making it easier to walk and do daily activities without the stress or pain of ill-fitting shoes, high heels, or even flip flops.
Also, wearing clean socks with closed shoes is important to ensure that sweat and bacteria do not accumulate within the shoe. Clean socks help to prevent athlete’s foot, fungi problems, bad odors and can absorb sweat.
