A man makes a deeper marks while walking on a soft ground in a high heeled shoes than in a flat shoes. Explain

A high healed shoes makes deeper marks on a soft ground because the area of contact with the ground is small while flat one makes shallow marks because the area of contact with the ground is large, this is due to the fact that pressure increases with decrease in the area of contact.
