Shoe Question, ladies!

[Taz_Zoee]

I never wear shoes with any kind of heel. I just don't like them, plus it makes me taller than Bruce. LOL He doesn't care, but I do.
I have a nice strapy black pair of heels and I think the heel is like only 1 to 1 1/2 inches.

I work in accounting at my work and I wear my skechers. I have a pair just like this. And a black pair similar but with a lace appearance. They are totally worn out and I need new ones, but as you can see they are not cheap.

I don't know how you can walk in such high heels. Actually, my friend recently broke her ankle in heels. She had to have a metal rod and 9 screws put in it. I think she still can't walk on it and it happened in June.

I do data entry and I do not wear heels at all, of any kind. After fracturing my right ankle many years ago, I decided I did not need to wear them, and my foot is much happier this way.

I have a couple of pairs of heels...but I can barely even call them heels they are a small wedge heel. I bought one pair for our wedding and one for the cruise we went on (for the formal night). I bet the heel is maybe 2-3 inches, if that, on both. I wore them for those events and never again. I'm clumsy enough as it is I don't need to break my ankle walking, I've tried higher heels and I can't walk well in them.

My job is a pet groomer I'd find it really really strange if any pet groomers out there wore heels to work. I wear some slip on sneakers to and from work and while I'm grooming I wear crocs. I've tried other types of shoes but those are the only thing I've worn that my feet dry out fast enough.

sneakers to work, then change into steel-toed sneakers while in my scrubs. I work in a lab. I never understood the shoe obsession a lot of women have, I'm too much of a tomboy I suppose. I prefer sneakers or barefoot, LOL

I work in a factory and wear tennis shoes to work. I don't do heels more than an inch on any of my shoes, not even my dress shoes.

Hard to believe but back in the day when I was 18-24 I worked retail AND wore high heels! Everyday! I look back in amazement.
I have craptacular ankles and gradually the heels got lower and lower. I do have a few princess heels that I like because the heel is centered on the heel and easy to walk in. Now, when I get dressed up, I wear a super flat ballet slipper. To work, I wear sneakers. I do keep a pair of my princess heels at my desk when I need to look like a "big girl" LOL! That's rare. My "retail feet" just won't let me do it anymore!

1-inch heels or less, usually a wedge. I wear support sneakers mainly. I do have so platforms or clogs which elevate the whole foot with a slight lift to the heel. Don't wear these much since I do have ear problems.

I actually need a slight lift to the heel due to some tendon problems (and double-jointed knees) which cause severe pain when I walk shoeless.

I teach, so I need to be able to move around the room with ease.

Sneakers for me. I work in a pub, so I'm on my feet running around a lot. Only comfy shoes for me! I just bought a pair from Old Navy for $20 that are much more comfortable then my last pair I paid $60+ for. I only have one pair of fancy boots that have a small heel. Even that is terribly uncomfortable to me.

I don't have an actual career yet, but I'm a Costume Character at an amusement park and I wear sneakers. I wore heels for the first time this year at Senior Prom. I can't imagine being a cop or an FBI agent and wearing heels to work...it's honestly just there to add sex appeal and nothing more.

In my future career, I would imagine I'll be wearing hiking boots of some sort

Ditto! Except I'm a veterinary technician! Running shoes it is!

I wear all types of shoes to work, some heels, some flats. Good quality heels do not hurt, and usually dress up my casual attire enough to call them work clothes.

I am the same as above. I'm a program assistant as well as a facilitator, so I have a desk job, as well as teaching at the front of a classroom. I have some not so quality heels as well, but when they are cute, it doesn't matter about the pain

Good quality heels do not hurt

Sigh, that is so not the case for me, but as I said, my feet are just not normal! I have duck-shaped feet, wide in front and very narrow at the back, so if I wear a shoe without a strap, I walk right out of the heels every time, and can sounds like I'm wearing flip-flops.

But I *know* that's just me!

And Zara, you sound like maybe we are related - you have what we call in the family ski-feet! Long, narrow and, well, flat! My sister has that kind of foot, my mother used to say, when we were kids, that she would gladly pay someone good money to take the two of us girls shoe-shopping!
