   I imagine that it the suidden change in ambient temperature around the foot   
   would very likely initiate a severe muscle contraction, in turn leading to a   
   severe cramp in the arch of the foot, besides judging by comments regarding   
   Listers moonboots im not sure how you would fit the beer in the fridge with   
   the trainers and the thirty odd extra large tins of baking soda which would   
   be required to go with them.   
      
   Cheers
