misterd73 Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 What heel hight do you normally wear? Please select your option on the poll. Thanks in advance! "Never below 4" and always spiky"
JeffB Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Since I go out a lot in my heels which means a goodly amount of walking, I favor comfort over height, so I rarely if ever go over four inches. I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Henri Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I vote for 4" even though I do not own any 4" heels. Most of my heels are 5" and a few 4.5". But there was not 5" catagory. 5" is my limit. I do have a 5.25" pair of sandals that are quite comfortable and I wear for long periods of time but I don't walk too far in them. I could not Walk a mile in them. I hope everyone has a good HEELING day and keep well. Henri If you haven't learned something new today; you have wasted the day.
jhs Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I voted 4 inches, which is my limit for comfort. I have not yet heeled outside my home. If I do, I would wear lower heels. The pavement differs too much from my floorcover. which is a thin carpet. Greetings Hans
yozz Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Most of my heels are around 3 inches. With those I am very comfortable. I can walk for a whole day in town with most of them. Some are not quite as comfortable and after an hour they start hurting. I have a few heels of 4 inches or higher, but I never take them outside and also in the house I use them only for special occasions/moods. Nearly all have a somewhat wider heel so as not to cry for attention. With this I feel completely comfortable and most of the time I forget even that I am wearing heels. Y. Raise your voice. Put on some heels.
HappyFeat Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I voted 4", but lately I have been wearing shoes in the 2" - 4" range. I have been noticing that there are a lot of cute heels that are sub 4". In fact, I am thinking of even getting a few pair of cute flats or kitten heels to add to my collection. Style is built from the ground up!
Pumpfan Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 The truth is most of my heels are 5", none under. Anything less just doesn't look or feel right.
Bubba136 Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I voted for 3" and below. As I've posted here several times in the past, I've not worn a pair of "men's" shoes in 10 or 15 years. While I have worn my pumps, sandals, slingbacks and boots with heels from 4" to 6" high out in public on occasions, I mainly limit my everyday wear of "girls" shoes to boots and loafer style shoes with heels from 1½" to 4" high. Constraints of business where clients and other contacts are more "conservative" in dress than I am. To me, the first consideration when looking for a new pair of shoes is that they are "girls" shoes. And the next thing is "where I am planning to wear them." Business, leisure, etc. But that doesn't prevent my wife from "using her own judgment when buying shoes for me. "I thought you might like these" is her favorite refrain whenever she returns from shopping with a new pair for me. Our tastes are really different. And, while she's thrilled with the looks, style, etc., I return most of the pairs she purchases for me. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
Stilettoscot Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Hard to say as I'm going out today in 4.75" boots, but of late, I try and wear 7" range heels. Walking in ultra-highs because it's exciting...and it is!!
Tamago Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Most of the time I wear 5 inch black pumps. I also have a 4 inch pair, but somehow I just can't walk in them.
Olounda Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I voted 4, but it just depends. I too value comfort and practicality over style. most of the time its between 3 to 4 inches.
john boy Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Iusallywear/order 5inch heels but because of my large size feet womens 16/17 they all measure along the back of heel 5.5 to 6.25.which i enjoy so much and can wear either fo hrs.
rxrenesis Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I'm in the 1"-3" range for most of the time for comfort. rx If the shoe fits BUY IT http://s10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/rxrenesis/Shoe%20Shots/
5.5 Thrill Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Didn't vote, my preference isn't available. Around the house I wear a pair of Pleaser Domina 2020 boots. When I go for walks in the malls around here I wear either my 5" Pleaser Mary-Janes or my Pleaser Seduce 2020 boots or my avitar, 5" metal heeled MJ's with an ankle strap. IF GIRLS CAN WEAR PANTS THEN I CAN WEAR HEELS
maninkirt Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I voted 4". Most of the time I´m wearing heels between 4" - 5".
ChipsHH Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I'm usually out and about in 4" or a half taller. Getting myself up there with the 5.5" Formally "HHDude"
HHfanatic Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 For outdoor walking around, 4" is my favorite. For indoors 5"-6" is my favorite height. I voted 4"
Heel-Lover Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 6 inch. I have far too many pairs (but never enough!) and wear them a great deal so I am used to the height now. Lower is kind of boring by comparison so I prefer a higher heel. Heel-Lover
booty lover Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 i voted 4" as this is the most comfortable stilettos are the way forward, just love them
pr8215 Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 I voted 4". I think 4"/4.5" are the perfect height. 90% of my heels are this height (the other 10% is just a little less or a little more). Never less than 3".
mackman69 Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 i voted for 4'' cause thats what i wear everyday to work and i do have some 6'' but dont wear them everyday.
samcar455 Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 I try not to get heels any lower than 4". Although I have 1 or 2 pairs that are or at. Most of the time I prefer 6" though. One of my goals in life is to have enough disposable income to purchase a pair of Christian Louboutin's.
kikepa Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 I would have to say "normally" I wear a range of different heel heights. All are between 2-1/2 and 4-1/2. My most comfortable pair, by far, sport 4 inch heels, but have a 1/4 inch platform. They're boots, perfect for winter. My next most comfortable pair are some Clarks clogs with a 2-1/2 inch heel, which I wear a lot in the Fall and Spring. I have two pair of 3-inch heeled leather oxfords I wear all the time, too. In summer months I'm a sandal fan, most flats (dodging fruit, here) but I have a couple of leather sandals I wear, including 4 inch wedges, and my highest, a 4-1/2 stilleto with two wide straps. I rarely wear the latter, but sometimes it's just fun to throw them on and walk around the house, you know? I've gone "out" to eat in them, too, but that consists of going through a drive-through then sitting in the parking lot, finishing my meal. Those who really care about us don't make a fuss about what we wear. Those who make a fuss about what we wear really don't care about us.
Himark Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Since the question asked about "normally", I voted for 3". I have some 4" chunky heeled boots that I wear outside from time to time, and on rare occasions I've worn 4" and 5" stilletos out in public. But my Clarks 3" chunky heeled boots (Indigo Saunter) are my every day favorites, to go just about anywhere, anytime.
Guest Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 My lowest is 3 3/4" and highest is 4 3/4" lift but mostly I'm in 4" to 4 1/4". can't see me going above 5" (lift) for awhile yet. Al
spiker Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 I have a stupid thing where I won't go below 5 inches as I do like my heels nice and high, pretty much excludes me from the high street shops though Stupid I know. Spiker.
johnieheel Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 At least 4. Nothing lower. Boots in avatar are 4 1/2 without platform. I think real men wear heels
Guest Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 For street helling, between 2 and 3", at home, between 4 and 7 3/4":w00t2:
heelsinmass Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 i voted for 4" but it is more of an average:smile: i wear from 3" to 5.5". i wear 5" in the house mostly but now that i have the OK from the GF to wear heels out or whenever i would like it might be more like 3.75" to 4".
