balletboot2000 Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 I got mine through Alternative Footwear, but there are plenty of places doing them on the net. I have a pair, and they are really stable compared to normal ballets. I love the feel of that ultimate lift!
jamie1608 Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 has anyone got a web address or a shop i can get a pair? what are they called and who makes them as i really, really want a pair!
roz Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 http://www.beverlyheels.com/incEngine/?content=categories&keyword=OFF&category=9 There's a pair on here, along with a lot of other very similar styles. They're by Karo. I have the 0257s which I am going to sell (there's a thread in Shoes For Sale) and I think they're pretty comfy considering how steep they are.
sevenup Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Those are some serious heels Roz, and in your size 5, barmy!!! would like too have seen a pic of your feet in them , vertical or beyond ?
Ms C Posted November 12, 2008 Posted November 12, 2008 No they are definately more of a fetish heel. I like them but mainly because they are different. But they seem to lack any sex appeal. A ballet or 7" spike heel has that certain feel and look but this just seems to be missing the mark on the look.... to me anyways. I think they are very sexy, part of my fetish aside from being able to do something few people could...I like the fact that my foot is in an extreme position like in ballet boots. I actually like the unusual no heel look because it is closer to having "barbie feet" and I am training my ankles and heels to look that way. This shoe just goes to show that everybody has a different idea of sexy! Ms. C
chicks66 Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 i plan to try to walk in those and ballet heels. i have not yet, as they are very expensive. i figure, if i can do ballet en pointe, i can do this. but it has been a while. oh,yes, by the way...can anyone help me here? i was on this site a few days ago and read a post that references a pair of ballet heels that had been modified to have a different style toe that stuck out front...sort of like a regular high heel shoe. the person had modified a pair of Devious ballet heels and i think they mentioned that they had added a steel heel or something. does anyone know where i can find that post again? who the poster was? or how they did it? thanks a million. chicks66 http://the6inchheel.blogspot.com/

Sounds to me like you are describing member pata, and her Alberto ballets. Is this what you meant?
roniheels Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Lol, I had to vote no. Not without serious practice. Why on earth anyone would wish to I can't imagine. They're not exactly elegant are they?. My sentiments, exactly. Well put, Amanda.
samcar455 Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 I really don't think I could considering how the highest heels I have are a pair of 6 inch platforms, but I think with enough practice (ballet heels) I could manage to wear those at some point. I just need to get enough money to purchase a pair of ballet heels. One of my goals in life is to have enough disposable income to purchase a pair of Christian Louboutin's.
thedesigner Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 I probably could walk in them, send me a sample to try and i will let you know (uk size 6 thanx) but i dont think it would be fun, and the enjoyment would then disappear. Ready to be proved wrong....
mtnsofheels Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Well now it has been awhile since I have seen some imaginary "footwhere?" like that, most interesting. I don't think I walk in it but to stand in it maybe. No doubt it would cost a bundle to own the heel-less shoe, imagination gone wild! Hmmmm....I think so. Mtnsofheels
spike.heelz Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 I could- and I'd love to. NOt for long walks in the park, but that's not reeeeally what they're for is it? And I think they're sexy as can be. Now I truly love and worship women in high thin stiletto heels, but those shoes would be awesome for a guy in long jeans to wear out in public- have a little secret footwear thing going on while going in to the quickie mart or to a nice dark bar with a girlfriend... They're hot!!!
Dancer Girl Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I could likely as I can now hobble along (like a total drunk after a night of hard drinking) in my ballet boots but they are so unsexy that I would not want them anyway
Shoeboi Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I don't think so. But would still love to own a pair of those. Just for those "fun" times.
jazzymj Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 I'd enjoy giving them a try. It would take a lot of practice but I'd enjoy the training! -MJ
hhdude159 Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 i can not bring myself to obtain those shoes the heels length are above my comfort zone and trying them on or even walking in them will probably give me a lot problems
zebra heels Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 i would wear them but i would fall alot. ps i am new and dont know what i am doing.
ilovemyheals Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 Where can you but these? i want the ones Posh spice had x
B9HM Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Could you wear this shoe? I myself couldn't. I just got a pair of ballets not that long ago and can not stand in them let alone walk in them "not yet anyways" and they have a thin heel which one can put a little weight on. Don't get me wrong, I love this shoe and would love to own it just because, but I do not think I could ever walk in them. Could you? This shoe has a 7.5" heel and comes in sizes 5-14. They are very different in design,but also sort of kinky and nice.I am sure I could walk a bit in them,I have some balletboots with a full 9¨heel that I can actually walk a bit in them,sothose shoes could be tamed with practice
thezush Posted July 25, 2009 Posted July 25, 2009 I voted no. I'm basically sure I can not walk in them, but would have liked to have tried!
balletboot2000 Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 Here is a link to me having a quick stagger in the garden in my Karos 0992 platform ballet sandals with their 9 inch heels. My response to the survey - definitely YES I love the feel of that ultimate lift!
sergio lessa Posted August 4, 2009 Posted August 4, 2009 Don't think I could manage... however never tried. Sergio Lessa

lotsofheels Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 The only logical purpose for the shoes pictured that I can think of is for wearing at the beach. Stillettos are really not practical since the heel would sink in first causing the wearer to fall over backwards. These shoes would seem to place the weight evenly under the foot of the wearer. I don't find them particularly attractive, but if its the only alternative to walking flat-footed or walking on tip-toes without any support, it may be a good shoe to wear.
BOOTED UP Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 I agree with HHDude, I would give them a try before I would rule them out. HHDude I love the boots in your avatar very nice . BOOTED UP
SuperTurbo Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 can someone show me the link of where can I buy this, and how much si it??
vicious_highheels Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 I'd give it a go. Maybe in time,you'd get use to 'em. Definitely a bedroom shoe :-)) Vicious HH
aussieheels1 Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 with the almost right angle heels on those shoe... i would love a pair to use as book ends on my book shelf
