High heels and ur weight?

I bought a pair of steve madden heels there 4 inches no platform and the heel is very skinny. when i first got them i had a terrible time my foot felt like it was being streched and every step i took my foot wobbeled but then after a while i got better but my foot still hurts about 20 min into wearing them i put insoles and padding extra at the ball of the foot part and still there just not that comfortable i dont know if the arch in my foot is big or small how do u tell? i have a size 9. i was also wondering maybe its because i dont weigh 90 pounds! :) im 5 feet 4 inches and i weigh about 175 pounds is this why most feet keep hurting? if i lose weight will my feet stop hurting? losing weight has to make some difference right? thanks for the info!

High heels and ur weight?
While high heels may be bad for a woman's feet, they are very good for her mental health. They make you feel pretty and feminine and it is admirable that you pursue your dreams.





1. Yes, the load on your feet is proportional to your body weight, so losing weight will help.





2. When you buy heels, check the angle of the heel part of the sole. The sole under the forefoot is of course horizontal. The part under the arch will have to be steeply slanted. But HH shoes differ in the angle of the sole under the heel The less slanted this is, the more weight you will be able to support with your heel rather than your forefoot. Bad HH shoes have an arch and heel section with almost the same angle. This will put all the load on your forefoot and it will be uncomfortable and painful. Good HH shoes have a more horizontal heel section of the sole.
Reply:the shoes probably don't have an arch and that might be the source. not really ur weight cuz i ave the fattest feet but as long as my arch is supported i'm good.
Reply:your weight has nothing to do with why your feet hurts, it's the shoe period. if you're looking for height without hurting your feet, i suggest you invest your money into wedges. One thing with shoes is that, when you first try them on, if they're not comfortable, DO not buy them, it's a sure sign that it'll hurt in the long run.
Reply:Stilettos hurt no matter what. The guy that created heels should be tarred and feathered!
Reply:buy some cute flat sandles for target or walmart, they're cheap, cute and best of all...COMFY


i dont think it's cause of your weight that your feet hurt, it's the shoes, my sisters had some like that and she threw them out after a week.
Reply:Steve Madden makes cute shoes however like 99% of high heels they hurt terribly! I don't think losing weight will help that much, it's really just the shoes. It wouldn't hurt to try if you think it may help. I would try getting a smaller heel like a 2' that will help greatly. You can tell your arch size by looking at it or you could go to an upscale shoe store or dept. store (Macy's) %26amp; have your foot %26amp; arch fitted. It's free 2! Good luck!
Reply:that's because all your weight are supported only by your sole.. ( i duno wat its called) instead of both sole + heels.. doesnt metter if u're 200 pounds or 90 pounds
Reply:well firstly 4 inch heels are rarely comfortable and with my own experience with steve madden heels they don't have enough padding. however from the way you described the shoes it sounds like you are wearing the wrong size or they might be too wide for you. your weight may be part of the problem as it is simply more stress on your feet but that alone woudn't cause you this much pain.
Reply:All platforms that high are going to hurt


whether your 91 lbs or 200 lbs


Its not natural for the body
