Usually 4" if I'm wearing high heels all day - 5" at a push if I'm driving.

In the evening 6" are no problem - although I find that 5" are the most complimentary to the legs and feet.

5". Gracefully. It's almost to the point that my lower heels don't feel like heels anymore.

I can go up to 6" But not that gracefully.

I can no longer wear stilettos, so I can't include myself in this poll. But it sure is interesting to me to read about all of you who can, and more power to all of you for the effort.
Cheers---

I just wore my first pair of five inchers the other day. Took a wee bit of time and effort getting used to them, but I managed to walk in them well. Chances are I won't go over that height since I do a fair amount of walking during the course of the day while I'm at work.

I can walk comfortably in 5.5-inch stilettos and don't plan on trying anything much higher. 6-inchers are out of the question.

my heel height versus distance walked graph looks a bit like a side view of the shoes - the ease of walking drops off pretty quickly as the heels get higher |\

Default How High a Stiletto (without platforms) can You Wear?

I can wear 5" heels but I don't walk gracefully. My current height is 4" with somewhat a gracefull walk. 3" I have down pat, no problems.

Like you, I'm at my most graceful in 4 inchers which I wear exclusively these days while 3 inchers almost feel like flats. I just wore my first pair of 5 inchers a few days ago, and those will take a wee bit of time getting used to. But hey! I like a challenge!
