Heels often crack more in summer due to a combination of heat, exposure, and dehydration.
During warmer months:
Open-back shoes and sandals leave the heels exposed, allowing moisture to escape more easily.
Walking barefoot increases pressure on the heel pad, causing the skin to expand and split.
Heat and sun exposure dry out the skin, reducing its elasticity.
Air conditioning and swimming (especially in chlorinated pools or salt water) can further strip moisture from the skin.
