Wedges are the shoes that men most hate on women, a new US study has found.
Research found that men are surprisingly opinionated when it comes to their partners' footwear style, and they vocally oppose the wearing of wedges, 'New York Daily News' reported.
Men in relationships also said Uggs, Crocs, platforms and flip flops were among the least attractive shoes their partners could wear, according to a new survey from CouponCodes4u.Com.
The survey polled more than 2,100 adult men currently in relationships, and 79 per cent of them said they typically noticed what kind of shoes their partner wore.
Also, 59 per cent men said they did not believe their partner had good taste in shoes.
The footwear style men find least attractive is Wedge shoes (71 per cent), Uggs (67 per cent), Crocs (63 per cent), Platforms (58 per cent), Flip flops (55 per cent), Moccasins (49 per cent), Mary Janes (42 per cent), Ballet shoes (37 per cent), Kitten heels (34 per cent) and sneakers (25 per cent).
