Alex Posted May 20, 2003 Share Posted May 20, 2003 Nice to know I can fit my size 15 foot into a size 14(Women's) heel. Sure, I can't get the ball of my foot all the way down, if I do my toes come almost all the way out, but there is space for me to put some padding down so I could walk around in them without falling on my face(again). I really like them and the color is amazing. I never knew a 6" heel was so high though I wish I was a size 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrelheels Posted May 20, 2003 Share Posted May 20, 2003 If you have smaller feet, a 6in heel is even more amazing! They don't look particularly comfortable, mainly because there's not much curve in the arch and your toes/ball of foot don't look right. Maybe that's just the picture, but I can't tell. Nice sandals though. Where did you get them from and how much did they set you back? SH Hi! I'm a signature virus! Copy me into your sig and help me spread!

Alex Posted May 20, 2003 Author Share Posted May 20, 2003 With the coupon it was $37 from pierre silber but I paid for them with money I got for my birthday a few months back, so it didn't cost me anything I got 3 pairs of stockings with them too. My toes aren't all the way in, you're right. I can push them down to the bottom, I just didn't for the photo I wish I was a size 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamyam Posted May 20, 2003 Share Posted May 20, 2003 Those are high! They are nice, tho'. A US14W is quite large, tho - I think I'm a US10W, so your feet are rather bigger than mine. But the shoes look in proportion, so nice. Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Well , there's the genuine 7" heels. Like you say, walking is an optional extra. They would make a nice pair of bookends though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoverfly Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Not yet.... But she has not expressed that she wanted a pair of her own. Does she have a pair of her own? Better yet, does she have a sister? Ahhhhh....... I don't think so but you would have to ask her. I should remember this one. I am in trouble for not remembering this one. I think she has a step sister....But married.

hoverfly Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 I am happy to have the one I got right now. I did not think I would find one so fast after my ex left me.

High Surprise Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Hey - Alex and Hoverfly. Love your 7 inchers. They sound like they are quite cheap too. Like them a lot! Jealous! Good pics. Thanks! Are they getting more comfortable with time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted May 21, 2003 Author Share Posted May 21, 2003 They arrived on Monday. I spent almost all day Tuesday in bed, I pulled a muscle or something on Monday(not in heels), so I haven't worn them for a decent period of time. I wonder what my legs will feel like if I wear them when I goto sleep in a few hours I wish I was a size 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamyam Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Mine are a little better, but more practice is still needed. Wore them a little the other night, and I'm getting there, but it'll be a while before I'm walking in them! And mine are a UK8-9, US10W, so I think they're the highest of all Obsessed is such a strong word.

hoverfly Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Sadly I don't have the time to wear them very much Instead, I am just working my way up on wearing ones that I can wear for much longer periods of time. Hey - Alex and Hoverfly. Love your 7 inchers. They sound like they are quite cheap too. Like them a lot! Jealous! Good pics. Thanks! Are they getting more comfortable with time?

High Surprise Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 Sounds like you both need to spend a little more time in your heels Remember, practice makes perfect Maybe some more picture when you feel they are more comfortable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted May 22, 2003 Author Share Posted May 22, 2003 I can take photos. Standing in the heels isn't a problem, moving in any direction is I wish I was a size 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Surprise Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 I find if I look ahead at the 'finishing line' (ie where I want to end up), it becomes quite easy to get there whilst of course looking confident. That's why I always say it's in the mind. I guess there is some element of physical getting used to stretching etc. For me, that has happened over time.

Rockpup Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 I can sympathise with Alex, I picked up a pair of 6" pumps (mens 7), and while I can stand in them I tend to develop cramps when I try to walk. I can actually stand up longer and move around easier in my ballet heels.. which is odd. As it's been said, Practice makes perfect Seeya Jim (formerly known as "JimC") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasbumpkin Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 I wish that my boyfriend would practise in his 7 inch heels more often.....hehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted May 23, 2003 Author Share Posted May 23, 2003 well the reason why I'm having trouble is that I went from 4" to close to 7" sandals. If I had some practice in 5" or 6" I'd probably have and easier time walking I wish I was a size 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted May 26, 2003 Author Share Posted May 26, 2003 Here's a pic of me actually standing in them Ignore the green thing next to my foot, that's just an ethernet cable.
