LESS STING TO YOUR STILETTOS
There was a time when I could dance all night without complaint, no matter how high my shoes towered. I still like to tower, but if it's too high instead of dancing I end up singing, ���I shouldn't have danced all night.���
But, now I have found a solution (reading seemingly insignificant columns can sometimes solve all manner of dilemmas). Lower your high heels one lift. Those in the fashion world already know this trick to eliminating foot corporal punishment. Any true cobbler/shoe repairman should understand this term. A lift is the tiny platform on the bottom of every heel. Tell the repairman/cobbler to: 1) remove the lift, 2) to saw off exactly the lift���s length of the heel itself, and then 3) reapply the lift. You should also add a thin rubber platform beneath the ball of the foot, meaning rubberize the sole. Caution, take the shoe down only one lift to not affect the balance between the heel and the sole. Result, the heel comes down a smidgen, the sole goes up a tad. This tinkering alters the pitch only slightly, but for some reason it makes a difference. Now you have a way to rekindle your love affair with your pre rubber soled stilettos. To your sole's relief!
