I'm pretty sure in heels because a lot of the woman's body weight is on the heel. When wearing flats the body weight is more distributed causing less pressure to be exerted.
The high heels will exert more pressure per unit area (per square inch, per square centimeter, etc.), because they distribute the weight over a smaller area of contact.
High heels apply more pressure.
High heels. The downward force in both cases is the weight of the woman. However, in high heels, the force acts on a relatively small area whereas with work boots the area is larger. As a result, the pressure is greater with high heels.Estimates suggest that a woman of average average mass, wearing stiletto heels with an area of 1 cm^2, will exert more than 10 times the pressure exerted by a 4 ton elephant standing on one foot.
I would think that the woman in high heels would exert more pressure per square inch. All that 50 kg of weight is concentrated onto the small heels of the high heels, whereas with the boots it's spread out around the area of the boots, which significantly lowers the pressure. Put another way, if you go out and try to walk on extremely crunchy snow with the boots, they act like a pair of liferafts on water, in a sense, or at least for a second or two. With the heels, they sink right through the snow.

They both exert the same amount of force theoretically, it's just that the force exerted on the floor by the high-heel spike is more concentrated. High heel - less surface area, more concentrated force. Work boot - more surface area, less concentrated force.
A brand of heels that can be converted into flats would be a great idea.

heels or if short pants flats
High heels apply more pressure.
Flats are a shoe that does not have a high heel on it. Or they could be talking about flat tire.
I think heels and flats
assuming they all weigh the same, they would be equal. if not, the heavier one would be exerting more pressure on the ground. if you are looking for an answer relating to pressure exerted in a specific spot, calculate it by surface area.
Instead of wearing high heels, I decided to wear flats also known as pumps.My truck has two flats.
yes

it all depends on the dress colour and where you are going, but probably heels, be careful in them.
