I voted some time ago but for the most part when I can its 3-4.5" in a wedge or bigger heel, cowboy boots, and other non stiletto heels. I am hoping to one day go out in a pair Louboutins! Pigales or OTK boots. Dreaming! Mtnsofheels

Hi I usually wear 5" heels but have just got some 6" heels which I just love. It's amazing how wearing the higher heels makes the smaller ones so much more comfortable though!

I normally go in the 3" range, but today I thought I'd wear my 4" heeled western boots from Miguel's BootUSA store on ebay to work. I've attached a picture of a very similar pair only mine are narrower heels that are tapered down more on the left and right side such that the bottom portion of the heel that makes direct contact with the ground is about 1 3/4" by 1 3/4". I've never been much of a showman as far as showing the heels goes and have always figured that if I wear long flared jeans that cover the heels there's still the challenge of walking in them properly without anyone taking notice. I've gotten very good at it to the point that I forget I'm wearing them! I can carry an open cup of coffee up a couple of flights of stairs effortlessly even though I don't do the 4" heels all too often. I don't know about doing that with a book balanced on my head though.. LOL Charlie

I like the idea of yours about the flaired jeans. I am going to try it but it is summer here with us so it will have to wait for winter. I like the boots:wave:

Thanks Jay Jay, but I'm sure I'm not the originator. There was a time when we could buy men's bell bottoms, but that was when I was in my late teens in the early 80's. Now it's necessary to buy women's jeans to get them. I've been wearing women's jeans for years now and have never had one single comment from anywhere. I don't try to look feminine at all either though.. They sure are great for wearing higher heeled boots! I've never had a comment about those either other than from people who thought they were cool. I'm actually known at work for my cool boots. Charlie

Thanks Charlie my wife gave me a pair of ladies jeans that she did not want and I can tell you that they are so comfortable and much softer than mens. We are going to buy some more soon.

All of mine are 5" or 5.5", one pair has a platform, and I can wear them all day easily, the others I have to stop for a break after a few hours for a few minutes

I started off with 3" stillettos, last fall I jumped to 4". I just bought 2 pair of 5" and I'm trying to get used to the added height.

I also started with a lower heel, but since I got some higher one's I d do not feel comfortable in the heels lower than 4". I came to the conclution the higher the better I have some Pleasers at the moment that is 5 1/2" they are so comfortable, could wear them all day.. I am looking for 6 to 6 1/2"

Hi For comfort with 5 inch heels go for the ones with a slight platform as they offset the heel height so your nearer a 4 inch in real terms but your legs will look great with the extra height heels

Posted

My highest wedgeheels are 3 1/4 inchs and I would rather have them more like 2 3/4 inches tall. I need a size 12 toboot too. That's just my preference as I'm already 6 foot 4 inches tall. It's a real hard challenge finding shoes I like and when I do the heels are over 4 inches tall which happens to me all the time.

I prefer 3.5" to 4". There's something about the curve of the sole and the view from the side that makes heels in this range just look right to me - the perfect proportions. And they're not so tall that I feel like I'm wobbling.

I like a 3" - 3.5" heel. I have a pair of 4" heels as well but I find that I able to walk furtherr and stand longer in the shorter heels. I really prefer not do wear anything under 2.5" because then I just don't enjoy them as much.

Posted

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.

There are loads of great mid-low heels out there i think. And I really like them...

Posted

I think my optimum/favourite heel height is 4". that's what i voted anyway. they are the most comfortable to walk in and they also look the best too..

Posted

3 inch or lower heels are most comfortable for me. I have owned 4 inch stiletto heels, but they're too difficult for me to walk in. I also now prefer the look of 3 - 2.5 inch heels.

Posted

Most of my shoes are in the four inch category. A few 31/2 some 5 but none lower that that. They are all pumps of different Varieties; Ankle Strap, Ornamented, D'Orsay... and are all closed toe.

My heeling habits have changed. These days it's limited to one of five favorite pair, with heels ranging between 3 and 4-1/2 inches. I'm most comfortable in 3-1/2 to 4 inch heels.

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.

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.

You can always send them to me? LOL
