  1. Yes they are definitely a challenge. My 13 cm heels took me quite some time to get used to, and I still only wear them when I don't have to walk too much. 9 cm really is a good height for wearing all day.
  2. If they fit right, pumps or sandals don't have to be more difficult than boots. For sandals it can get more difficult if they only have few straps.
  3. I agree on that. Around 12 cm is a very nice height. I also really love some higher ones (lookswise), but they're way more difficult to walk. Like the 1 cm step from 12 cm up to 13 cm is way bigger than an 1 cm step in lower areas.
  4. My first experiences with high heels were the same - cheap, not well-fitting, uncomfortable, and way too high for the beginning. But somehow I kept going, I just liked them too much. But I can understand that this is a part where many might choose not to ever wear heels again, or only very occasionally. Then after a few years I started going more for a perfect fit and good quality. I was quite surprised how comfortable high heels can be, and that was when I started wearing them also for everyday life.
  5. Good find! I love the "why 5 inch heels" section, commercials were so different back then. Funny that they were advertised like that, even though they were very uncommon back then as you say.
  6. The black ones look really good, but I also like multicolor ones from the last picture very much!
  7. I voted for cobbled streets because that's what I encounter most. What's also very bad, but doesn't happen to me that often is stiletto heels on grass.
  8. I literally wouldn't even know what to wear to the office if it wasn't heels.
  9. I never thought of it that way, because I never knew any men who'd like to wear heels. That's sad that you (men) who want this have to deal with such boundaries. And most the women who'd have the opportunities don't use them. But yeah, I'm sure this will turn at some point.
  10. That's a good point, I also think that flats will become too boring (for me, they already are/always been) and then people will seek for something more exciting again. As long as they're still producing heels I can get through that dull phase 😀
  11. Hi Prima, yes, let's go for it! Funny to have a high heel place with so less women, from real life I only know it the other way around😅 Oh, did you already have bad experiences? In germany it would probably be the guys who would receive harassment. I can't complain, the only thing is that I really stick out if so less other women wear heels. We can absolutely discuss stiletto boots, I really like them! (for winter at least)
  12. This was an interesting excurse into the history of high heels in the society. I started wearing heels in the mid 2000s, and didn't know that they weren't as popular before that. I can remember that at that time heels were everywhere in the media, and also at clubs, events, parties. I already recognized myself that lately I'm somehow getting more and more of a leftover who still wears heels. I'm curious on how it will evolve, but I'm pretty sure that they will become more popular again once.
  13. Are office dress codes even a thing anymore? I've worked in offices for quite a while now, but never was there a dress code. Shyheels, I absolutely agree to your last paragraph. Some women who wear 2 inch heels sometimes might just do it because it fits the occasion, but the ones who wear 4 inch+ heels most probably do it because they love heels. For me the height is a big part what sets them apart from other shoes, and a good-looking heel starts for me at around 3 inches.
  14. I'm open to new styles but the ones shown here...I really don't know what the "designers" must have thought. The metal sandals at least look more like normal heels, but I can only imagine how painful they must be. Sometimes it's better to just stick to proven designs.
  15. I also find it very interesting that there are many men here on hhplace. In my area I barely see any men wearing high heels, but at the same time I feel like there are also less women wearing them. In the pictures of the "high heel race" post there were also apparently more/only men. Maybe there's a shift going on and once there will be more men wearing heels than women, who knows. For me high heels lookswise are still a feminine thing and I like men more in any other type of shoes than heels. But taste is different, and if it's the men who appreciate heels more than the women, I'm totally fine with that! Somehow it really seems that women may not like high heels that much anymore. Over the last few years, if anybody found out that I'm wearing my high heels regularly, women mostly said that it would be too uncomfortable for them.
