Longer Leg Illusion. Excess fat on your legs can make them look shorter, but when you lose fat, you create the illusion of longer legs. Muscle-building activities that create definition in your legs can make the illusion of longer legs even more powerful. Moreover, sometimes exercise improves posture and reduces muscle tension.
Like ankle straps, they make your legs look shorter than they are. An ankle boot with a v-cut at its top instead of a horizontal line is exempt from this rule. A pointed v-cut ankle boot can even make your legs look longer in its own right, as they extend the line of your legs downwards.
