OBS

Genre de chaussure qui n'a pas de talon, ni de contrefort et est plus basse vers l'arrière. Ces «negative heel shoes» étaient portées par les jeunes hippies. L'industrie de la chaussure au Canada a donné plusieurs dénominations française à ce type de chaussure («chaussure de type talon négatif», «escarpin inversé», «chaussure terrestre», «chaussure à talon surbaissé», etc.). (Renseignement donné par Alembert International; (Montréal).
