Thanks: 0 Thanked 1 Time in 1 Post Rep Power: 1  |  painful pointy toe question i just got a stunning pair of 6" stilletto heel boots they fit me perfectly but whenever i walk for more than a few minutes my feet slide into the very pointy toe and it pinches my toes and is very painful. they are the correct size so that is out, i have tried wearing thin socks, thick socks and even stuffing cotton balls into the points. nothing really works. the thick socks make the toes hurt less but it makes the whole shoe part too tight. im going nuts because these are by far my favorite boots they look amazing could it be just because of the 6" heel (my 5" heel boots don't hurt like this) should i just keep wearing them for short periods and get used to it or should i stop wearing them? |

My Mood:  Rep Power: 5 | Re: painful pointy toe question I would guess that they're not snug enough across the instep, just too wide or poorly designed. You could try putting some insoles or gel pads into the toe to make the instep more snug a fit. . |

Thanks: 0 Thanked 1 Time in 1 Post Rep Power: 1 | Re: painful pointy toe question they seem plenty snug but the little bit of room in the toe is just enough to fit my big toe in so i think that the steep angle of the heel just forces my foot into it |

My Mood:  Rep Power: 0  | Re: painful pointy toe question I think it's the arch too steep, and so not supporting the foot well (making it slip frontally).

My Mood:  Rep Power: 0 | Re: painful pointy toe question Glue them on .. that way it won't slip :) Just kidding .. May be some insert that will make the inside of the shoe less slippery so your foot does not slide forward ? |
