The simple answer is what you have tagged in your question.

The heels have a smaller surface area than the trainers.

So, the cross section of heels will produce larger pressure on any surface then the trainers.

Answer 2

Heels have lesser surface area than trainers, and as we know Pressure is indirectly proportional to area(which means if area is increased pressure will be decreased and Vice Versa) , so pressure due to cross section of heels is applied more than trainers that is why heels sink in turf while trainers don't.
