littleblue Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 As the title states, I've been looking for boots/shoes that are 5 inches or higher with NO PLATFORM and chunky or wedge heels. At work I can't wear stilettos or thin heels so I've been stuck in 4.5" heels (5 with a 0.5 platform) for ages Platforms are mo good as they wont help me stretch my arch. Anyone have any ideas?
Heelster Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 In most cases, your likely to be buying online. You might find one or two pairs at a store like Aldo or DSW, but in areas like where I'm at, it's the 'exotic boutiques' that have a couple pairs. Sizes are usually limited to a womens 10. Good luck.
littleblue Posted December 11, 2012 Author Posted December 11, 2012 That's about UK 7.5 isn't it? That's fine by me - now I just have to find some I can wear to work lol
Bubba136 Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Why not look at the offerings sold at sexyshoes.com? Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
skyhighheels Posted December 18, 2012 Posted December 18, 2012 I'm curious as to how you can wear heels but no stilettos?
ChipsHH Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 I have a handful of sites bookmarked. One that popped up when you said "5 inches or higher and NO platform" was this: http://www.extremefixation.com/ Bad name for a site, but I'm sure if you submitted your ideas, s/he'd gladly see what they could do. Take it with a bit a salt, though. I've never ordered from them, so you're on your own with this one. Also, another that popped into my head: http://www.zoccoli.de/english/homepage_E.php Once again, never ordered from, so if you're really looking for a pair, better to email the folks first to make sure they still operate~ Formally "HHDude"
dww Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 Glad you can wear such high heels, I know I can't and won't even try. life is not a rehearsal
vicious_highheels Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 6.5 inch is my limit with no plats as my foot size dictates that to me :pulsingheart:.. I have tried 7 .25 inch heels but my full weight of me ( about 60 kilos ) is right on my toes only,not a good thing :nono: .. Maybe in short burst walking around which I've done, but alright in the bedroom though :evil1: .. The Scream heels in my profile pic are a 6.5 inch heel.... I can handle wearing them for up to 6-8 hours,done this on many occasions out and about...Mind you the heels these days are slightly out alignment,but they are still good for getting around in... :pulsingheart:..
