The Footwear Appreciation Thread

LOL, you remind me (with your fear) of a friend of mine...our plane from Europe was too late in Jo'burgh, we were running to reach our gate for our connection flight through the whole airport..I was wearing very high heels, thin ones, but I was faster than him..lol..and I was just hearing him screaming: " Wait!! Not so fast, you break your legs!!", then I've heard the loudspeaker that we have to hurry, it's the last appeal for us (you know..Mrs ...and Mr ..., please come to the gate, or however they say) and then, he was screaming again "Wait...be careful!!" and I was screaming: "Excuse me", "Excuse me"...it was funny, indeed

 

LOL LOL LOL... so Im not the only one who thinks like that...LOL Nice!!! Wish I could turn it off but I can not.

 

There are different kind of shoes, how high is in general not the problem (till a certain hight, of course). It's all about your balance, for me- the heel has to be at the end of the shoe.I have friends they need the heel in the middle of the heel. The only problem is , when the ground is uneven, like our cobbled streets in Europe...that are leg breakers, but in general you need not to worry about ud girls:smt002

 

That's interesting Christine, I wasn't aware of the heel placement differences. Makes sense!

 

For me it's if there is a platform or not under the front. If the platform is 1" and the heel 4" then you only have the tilt of 3" heel. But if it goes above 3" difference to me it gets to be an uncomfortable angle.

Like this one wouldn't be as bad as you assume because the platform on the front eases the difference.



The higher the heel without the platform the more you walk only on your toes. Ex.



Of course the higher the heel the nicer the leg looks though.

 

That chart made me want to find the pic of the Louboutins that look like the far right shoe. Where would you wear these uncomfortable looking shoes...Louboutins or not.

 

yes, I was also thinking, what is the reason...I assume it's my upright carriage, or maybe it's the angle? Is it important where your shoulders are? Maybe, I ain't sure..


that ballerina shoes I think are only for photography..where do you want to wear them??? Have you ever tried them..they are nonsense

 

I would wear them while sitting in a chair.

 

i think we should start a thread where the lady members of this forum to post pictures of themselves in their shoes. just sayin...

 

Go ahead. We'll let you. I'm sure the ladies will post.

 

If I can find someone else to take a photo of my footsies in shoes, I'd post them lol. Otherwise, I might hurt myself.

 

Be safe.
