Shoe Question, ladies!

[kuhio98]

I have 1 pair of heels -- 2 inches, but I can't remember the last time I wore them.

At work we are not allowed to wear heels as we have metal grating stairs -- and why would anyone want to wear heels in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska where it's covered in snow 9 months out of the year? So, at work, I wear something similar to the attached.

Tennis shoes for yard work and boots in the winter.

I've always hated wearing heels because I'm tall,almost 5'10", and I don't want to be any taller. When I was younger I would usually wear a low heal when I would go out. I work in a dental lab so I can wear jeans and tennis shoes. I also need a good shoe with good arch support and I've found that New Balance works well for me. There are several women at work that wear nothing but high heels because they're short and they don't want to be any shorter. When I'm at home I live in slippers most of the time. I have to be comfortable.

I'm a paralegal and am constantly going over to the printer and the attorney I work with is in another building so I'm back and forth several times a day. Since my idea of being dressed up is clean jeans and a clean t-shirt, heels flat out don't work. For me it's sneakers or dressier flats.

After surgery on my spine, the doctor told me that high heels can throw your spine out of line. Ugh!

I don't really wear heels, either; once in a while I will wear a small heel if I'm dressed up for a wedding or something similar.

I'm in education and I mostly work from home- I don't wear shoes in the house, unless it's really cold, in which case I wear slippers. I also teach piano lessons one night a week, and ironically, I don't wear shoes there either. The studio is on the lower level of the owner's home, and she doesn't like shoes in her house. I'm either barefoot, in socks, or wearing slippers for my job there.

I also work very part time as a researcher for the Denver Zoo, and I always wear comfy tennis shoes or sandals there because there's usually a lot of walking involved.

When I taught in the classroom I also wore flats, just dressier ones. I actually like walking when I have comfortable shoes, but I can't imagine being up and around all day in heels!
