I wasn't suggesting you were compromising.
But I wanted to assert you haven't gone as
far as you ever want to? I still think that's the case.
In many ways, my attitude mimics yours. Reading your posts, can be a bit scary, as it sometimes feels like I'm reading my own prose.
You have my full support with wearing 7-10cm as 3-4 inches is not much lower if at all, than the 4" which is my usual walking heel height. Stiletto's are in many ways, not practical for men (wear too quickly) as I've mentioned. As for listening to their sound, I'd prefer listening to my wife clik-claking next to me, but I'd sooner llisten to my own feet than nothing at all. [
Really is like 'music to my ears'.

I'm not hung up on stillies, and in fact LOVE wedges, and that is the style I've bought as my 'street' shoes.
Five times now.
I've listened to your anecdotal experience and preferences, and that of several others who have contributed to the thread. And guess what? I'm gonna give it a go. In fact I mentioned it to herself this evening, and didn't get an adverse response!
A potential convert ..... For "everywhere" footwear anyway.
.... P.S. The ONLY reason I don't already own a pair like the ones in your picture, is that they are supposed to be a wide fit, which I avoid.
