In the world of high heel shoes, one term stands out as the definition of fashion. This term referrers to an extreme style of a high heel shoe known as the stiletto. Stilettos are generally high heels taken to the extreme, raising the heel almost 6 inches above the ball of the foot. These shoes are considered to epitome of formal footwear for women and are highly fashionable and sought after. However, stilettos are also generally highly uncomfortable to wear and also cause foot problems if not worn correctly. In this article, we will look at stilettos and how to wear and get comfortable with them.

Stilettos in this day are generally designed to make women look even more feminine. They have exceptionally small and elevated heels. This makes the legs look longer and thinner than they actually are. High heels also give women a thinner and more feminine look. However stiletto heels also concentrate immense pressure on certain parts of the foot and can lead to pain and even chronic foot problems if not kept in check. In order to properly wear and adjust to high heel stilettos, you may want to try these things to help your foot adjust to the pressure points brought on by stiletto heels.

First of all, do not think that doing these things will let you walk comfortably in stilettos all day long. You should still be aware that stilettos should be worn on only special occasions that warrant them. Most of the time, it is advised that you wear regular shoes to protect your feet.

For starters, if you know you are going to be in motion while wearing high heels (like dancing), you should practice standing in them to get the correct posture. Experience in standing in stilettos will help ease some of the pain and discomfort while you are moving in them. You can also discover ways to help lessen the pressure on some points of your feet. While wearing a high heel stiletto shoe, you should never walk for extended periods of time on carpet. Your high heel shoes will generally destroy or erode the carpet after extended walking and the carpet can catch you and throw you off balance, resulting in a potential fall.

After you’ve mastered standing in such shoes, practice walking in them in different conditions. Start with just a flat floor first and then try steps or a slightly elevated incline. Start off with stiletto heels that are slightly lower in height and gradually move up to the height you want to be at. Stepping from side-to-side in stilettos is a great practice for dancing in them. The key is to practice a lot in your stiletto heels before a night out with them. The more practice you get in your stiletto shoes, the better off you will be when the occasion comes where you actually need to wear them.
