I would have to say that it is caused by all of the weight of the person with high heels is centered on two specific spots. The sole and the heel. However, flat shoes have the weight spread through the whole shoe.

Because the whole weight of the woman is concentrated on an area smaller than one square centimetre. The smaller the area - the larger the amount of force.

The person's weight would not be carried by the entire foot like it would be if she were wearing shoes or with bare feet but about half of her body weight would be carried down to your foot by that very narrow point. It may be enough to go into your skin.
