Competition shoes

Ladies....what type of shoe is better a mule slip on type like this http://www.exotichighheels.com/lip101r.html or the around the ankle strap type shoe like this http://www.exotichighheels.com/el-502-brook.html?

Also, they aren't platform type like this http://www.exotichighheels.com/del602.html right? Just more a flat front without the big platform like this http://www.exotichighheels.com/el-502-jesse.html

I like the mule type better than the strap around the ankle...just worried that I'll have too much trouble walking in them and possible have one slip off my foot...LOL

Anyone tried both kinds? Which is best?

    I like the slip on because I feel like it makes my legs appear longer... the ones with the straps cut the leg making it appear short imo. They are super comfortable! You won't have any trouble walking at all =)

    Good luck!

    They don't feel like they will fall off at all?

    So, i decided to go with these sling backs....best of both worlds! Now the strap around the ankle wont be an issue of chopping my leg off bluntly and making it look stubby....I'll have an elongatged leg look with no strap. But still have the "security" of a strap at the back of my heel to hold the shoe on! Now I wont fall on my face, yay! $44, free shipping ...not bad, i think.

    At the risk of hijacking the thread...does anyone know where I can get competition shoes in a wide width?

    thanks for this! i need a pair too and these look cute. where are you getting your suit from (i'm doing bikini next year)

    I ordered my suit from ravishsands.com. They were fast and very affordable for what I purchased. I kept my first suit very simple though, minimal bling since I will be accessorizing to make up for it.

    I got mine from Sewn In The Sun, they are 20 minutes from me so I can go in for fittings!!! :) I go in this Friday to try on my actual suit for final alterations.
