I am 5;8 and I used to NEVER wear heels, I hated being taller then everyone laready with out them, and being like 6 ft with them i was insanely taller then allother chicks, but one day I saw a girl who had to be 6'1 and wearing huge heels, and I started saying *kitten* it and I would still only wear no more then 2.5-3 inch. Now I wear up to 4,
But all the sexiest heels are 5 inches !!

Ya it sucks that the hottest ones and the taller ones !!1 GRRR.
I bought like 5.5 inchers once, wore them one time and at a grocery store a lil kid said WOW shes tall and I nfever wore them again.. man they were so sexy though... like classy stripper shoes LOL0 -
I'm 5'8.5" and I used to wear very high heels occasionally. I didn't mind towering over other women, or even some men. There was one guy I worked with once who used to act very superior to me and one day when he started, I simply stood up and said "Yes?" This made him have to crane his neck to look up at me, which was quite funny in the circumstances.
Lately I have found heels too uncomfortable and am getting rid of them ALL. I now want to wear flats or very low heels. My favourites are Louis heels, kitten heels and those really tiny heels. I don't know if I'll feel comfortable in heels again when I've lost a lot of weight but will just have to see.1 -
I love wearing heels 4in is my normal height anything shorter is uncomfortable to my feet
Im 5'10 and Love my Height2 -
Comfortable for me is 3 1/2 - 4 inches.0

I am 6'1 and I LOVE to wear 4-inch heels and platforms!!!! I used to be really self-conscious and to be honest, I still am a little but I am willing to go outside of my comfort zone to wear some fantastic footwear!0
-
Now that I've lost over 80 pounds, I've started wearing heels again. I'll go up to 3 - 3 1/2 inches. Maybe once I get down to my goal weight I may consider wearing higher ones.0

I never wear heels. At 6' I'm used to being taller than most people so that isn't really the issue. But I live in the rural UK - think quaint, beamy LOW ceilings and cute, quirky LOW doorways... I've enough scalp scars as it is without raising my height any further. Plus I just don't find them at all comfortable - I walk a lot everyday and I like to stride out. I'll wear a low heel if called for, for an occasion - but they end to get kicked off after the first couple of glasses of wine!0

I'm 6'1. I like to wear 3" or 3.5" heels. They are comfy and feel natural and I can walk normally in them no problem, and can even run in some! Anything beyond that and things get a bit wobbly... and god knows I need no help falling down! lol0
-
I'm 6ft tall and will usually wear up to 5inches. Basically because I stop being able to walk in 5inches+
I just love the way they make me legs look..0 -
I'm 5ft 9in and the tallest heel I would wear is 3in. But not when I'm with my other half as he is 5ft 8in!0
-
I'm 6' and prefer flats, mostly because 3" or more hurt my feet.
However, finding cute flats = impossible.0 -
I am 6' and will wear up to about a 4" heel for work. I love the heels. Around the house and with the kids I am a flip flop girl, but my work shoes are my fun ones
I tend to go for a 3" because I can wear them for hours, but will go as high as 4". 0 -
My husband is shorter than me (I'm 6ft and he's 5' 10") so I rarely wear them. If I do, it's only a max of 2 inches. I am way too unstable. Also, with higher heels, that creates a whole new pants-length issue!0

This exactly! My husband is only 6'1" and I don't ALWAYS want to tower over him!0 -
I totally agree..I can never find cute flats which I prefer...I live in Texas so I do get to wear flip flops alot lol0
-
I'm 5'10" and LOVE my heels.
I own one pair of flats (plus my running shoes and flip flops, thongs here in Australia) and everything else has at least a 2" heel. All my favourite ones are 4".
All my boots have heels, either wedge or stilletto.
LOVE the way stilettos and a nice top fancy up my jeans for a night out.0 -
I'm 5'10 and I think most heels I own are at least 4 inches, but i'm not opposed to wearing 5 inch or platform pumps!!! plus most of the crazy designs that I love are 5 inches.0
-
I'm 5'9" and I'll wear as tall a heel as I can manage (which isn't much). I think most of the ones I have are 3 inches, but I do have one pair of 4-inch heels that I adore and actually find more comfortable than most. My husband is 6'7", so I can get away with stilts, basically.
My dad (who is 6'6") always swore that tall women should never wear flats. It's very graceful and pretty to see a woman with long legs wear heels instead of stubby flat shoes. (Incidentally, my mother is over 6 feet and she rocks in heels.)0 -
I'm right at 6ft and I love platform heels. The higher- the better, mine currently range from 3inch regular heel to 31/2inch platfrom with 51/2inch heels. theyre even wild colors like Bright red, zebra, Green (St Pattys day
), black....grey with studs...oh i love them all!!! 0 -
The higher the heel the more I love them! Be tall and wear high heels! Be Proud!! I love shoessss!!!!0
-
I am 5'10" and my husband of 26 years is 5'4" He loves when I wear heels. I haven't been wearing heels so much per se, but I LOVE platforms. 4" ones work just fine for me! 0
-
I personally think 5" heels are a bit CRAZY...but made it is because I never had a pair to TRY and walk in. BUT, I wont go there anyway...the highest I usually go is 3" but usually just 2". My husband and I look each other in the eye so, I dont usually like to wear much of a heel with him. BUT, cant find cute shoes withOUT a heel so, I wear them. My hubby likes them tho!! 0
-
I'm 5'10" or 5'11" or so. My fiance is 6'5" so the sky is the limit - anything over 5" though can get uncomfortable without a platform. I have a LOT of shoes. 0
-
I'm 5ft 10 and i will wear as high as i can walk in whilst still looking girlie. If i wear them too high i tend to look a bit heavy footed so i have to be careful.0
-
I'm 6'2 and my husband is 5'8, so I already tower over him and that's not an issue. I just cannot walk in anything higher than 2". I have some latex zip up boots that are platforms and about 4-5" and that's just getting crazy when I'm 6'7, so I don't wear those except on Halloween maybe.0
-
I'll wear up to 6 inches which would make me 6'4"0
-
I like platforms cause I can get in a little extra height. Max is 4" but to be honest they just hurt my feet and I walk funny. Easier at 2" or 3". But I love being taller than everyone. I bike everywhere and it's pretty easy to bike in heels, easier even when you're stopped at a light, but it never fails to elicit reactions from folks.
Manfriend is a shade shorter than my 5'10" but as he and I said in unison one time, he can handle it.0 -
I am 6ft and I am not against wearing heels at all. In fact, I like them a lot BUT I have this little pending weight issue that makes my feet hurt like a mug in anything other than flip flops or tennis shoes. My hubby is a little shorter than me but he doesn't mind the extra height. I will wear up to 3 1/2 inches because anything after that makes me walk like a new born giraffe!!0
-
I have typically never worn heels in my life due to having tibial torsion and knee issues due to weight. As I've lost weight I've realized I can walk in a lower heel.
I'm 5'11'' the highest right now is 2 1/4'' boots I have. They put me over 6' and my poor boyfriend is only 5'4'' but he looooves the heels haha0
