Slingfan Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 Hi all, I bought a pair of black leather peep toe slingbacks a while ago. They have a cork platform under the toes and ball of the foot and a 5 inch cork stiletto heel. The sling wraps around the heel and finishes on the inside of the foot. They are similar to the platform slingback alot of celebrities have worn in the past couple of years. The slingback strap has elastic at the back instead of a buckle. When I got them they fit beautifully around my toes and were just the right size for my feet. I walked around and my sling stayed up. I decided to go for a walk at night at a nearby large park area and stretch them out. After a while I noticed my left strap was extremely slowly working its way down. Straps on my left foot always have trouble staying up. I arched my feet to exaggerate the slipping and stretch the straps more. It would take maybe 700m for the strap to fall. Anyway, I kept wearing the heels at home and wearing them out and stretching the leather and the elastic in the straps. After a month or so I went for another long walk at night in my heels. As I began to walk my left strap noticably began slipping as I began to walk. I could feel a wonderful stretch in the strap and after 10 steps I had to pull it back up. I kept pulling it up just so I could feel it slipping again. After doing this afew times I let the strap flop off under my heel. With the strap down my left heel slapped so loudly, the cork platform and huge stiletto heel added extra weight to my shoe and it flicked up so quick and hard,making a real loud flopping/slapping noise. By now my right strap had strated to wear and slip very, very slowly like the left had the first time I wore them out. I lifted my right strap every now and again, even if it wasn't all the way down as I just love the feeling, but I left my left strap down and flopping like mad. Even if I had pulled it up it would be down in 20 seconds anyway. Imagine when the right strap wears itself out! They will be like beautiful, naughty 5 inch flip flops! I love the one strap slipping and the naughty feeling of wearing my slings under my heel and not raising them for a while. I wish I could wear them out sometimes, I see so many hot women out on weekends in slings that keep falling down, some of them don't like it but some have fun with their slipping heels, especially when the straps are down, I'd love to joon in on the fun!
Bubba136 Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 While the slipping strap thing might be "exciting" to you, I find it extremely annoying. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
