Elevator Shoes: High Heels For Men

By G. Tan


I have always thought women are so lucky because they can increase their height 2 ~ 6" instantaneously by wearing high heels. Not only do they look taller, however they can do so freely and without criticism. This gives women a huge advantage over short men because men can not wear high heels. But now there are high heels for guys, the elevator shoes.

Elevator shoes works like high heels for girls, but with one extremely significant difference. Whereas girls's high heels are open and prominent, elevator shoes are discrete and hidden. This allows a short man to catch up to the women in heels easily and instantly.

How do elevator shoes work?

High heels for men has an unique height increasing insole that are much thicker than the regular insole. The insoles can be several different materials, but normally made from some kind of foam or rubber material and is anywhere from 1/2" to 3". Add this to the normal 1/2" to 1" heels, and you're talking about 1 ~ 4 inches of immediate lift!

The very best part is, the lift comes from the insoles so it's concealed and discrete. Although you can add the special insoles to virtually any kind of shoes, shoes not designed for the insoles will be awkward, bulky, and your feet will often slip out. Elevator shoes are made with the height increasing insole in mind so it will accommodate the insoles with no indicators of this lift from the exterior.

Are they comfortable?

Ask any woman if high heels are comfortable and 100 % would tell you it is not. Even with a low lift insole of 1", your heels will be above the soles of your feet so it will never feel as natural or comfortable as a pair of running shoes. The 2" and above insoles feel precisely like I would imagine a girl's high heeled shoes would feel like.

Some girls say platform shoes are quite comfortable, and they most likely are since the entire length of the foot is on a flat plane instead of the heel being higher. However, you lose stability from the extra lift which makes running or any kind of exertion challenging. High heels for guys can not achieve this platform effect, since platform shoes, no matter how discretely made, will be evident from the outside.

But, who cares? You're not going to play basketball in these shoes and they're not completely intolerable to wear that you cannot walk around in them. You have to sacrifice a little bit of function for form.

The Bad News

The bad news is, if you're ever in a position where you need to take off your shoes, you will be caught red handed. This is unpleasant to say the least and does not look favorably on your image and ego. What will you say to your new girlfriend when she notices you're 3" smaller than when she initially met you?

For smaller guys, these discrete high heels for men will be a wardrobe essential, especially for a night out. My suggestion is to stay with a smaller lift of around 1". This will make you feel and look significantly taller and will be comfortable enough for long term use. The majority of people also will not really notice the difference with smaller sized lifts so you can use it with more confidence. Just remember to come clean to your new girlfriend so you do not have to answer that embarrassing interrogation.
