6 inch or 7 inch heels?
I know there are a lot of old threads on this already but there are differing opinions everywhere and I’m really torn. I’m toying with the idea of treating myself to some pole heels, and I love these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PLEASER-ADORE-709-POLE-DANCING-LAP-DANCER-PLATFORM-STILETTO-HEEL-SHOES-UK-2-9-/251420908988
The heel is 7 inches and I LOVE the look of them, but I’m really not a heel expert (quite the opposite) so I’m wondering if I’m likely to injure myself and it would be safer to get 6 inches or something smaller. But some people say taller shoes are actually more comfortable/easier to dance in…thoughts? 🙂

I started in 6 inch heels and it took me a while to get used to even wearing heels. But then I started wearing 7 inch heels and didnt notice much of a difference. I think if you dont wear heels at all that both will take some getting used to but I dont think I can feel a big difference in my 7inch and 6inch heels. I think 7inch might be easier for me because I use the toe of my platform to slide on when doing alot of moves like elbowstands. they are also easier to clack if you like doing heel clacks. it’s hard to say. I wonder if it wasnt that big of a difference for me because I was already used to wearing 6inch? they dont feel as tall as they are because of the platform. I find pole shoes with the platform to be more comfortable and stable than regular high heels that someone would wear to work.

I will say that now I dont wear any heels less than 7inches. you get addicted to higher and higher heels! I just dont like the look of 6inch heels on me and I feel short and not sexy. 🙂

Thanks for your input! I think you’re right, they’ll take some getting used to no matter what the size so I’ll probably end up going with the 7 inch. I’m now having a separate dilemma where I can’t decide between the all black ones and the black and silver… 😱 I showed 2 of my workmates and they both said black and silver. They do look nice but I’d worry about the silver part getting scuffed!

deciding which pair is a dilemma! haha! both shoes will get scuffed no matter what. it will probably show up more on the silver pair I think. the black will also scuff but maybe wont be as noticeable. when your shoes get old and scuffed up you can glitter them!! 🙂 inverting will take some getting used to in heels. I was surprised when I finally tried to invert in my heels. dont let it scare you. now that I’ve gotten used to the heels it is hard for me to invert without heels. I just did like Veena suggested in a thread and started working on inveerting in bare feet on my tip-toes. this helped me to invert with heels quickly. you’re gonna love shoes for climbing!!! it makes climbing a little bit easier.
