User Reviews
These are worth the value as they’re comfortable for all day wear and have a lovely non slip tread. They don’t seem to mark floors when you walk. I love you get a little tool to assist in putting them on or taking them off. The box is especially nice for storage of these lovely shoes until ready to be worn again. I like to store them in the box as there’s an mould inhibitor tab inside. The little booklet included lets you browse what the brand has to offer. If you’re looking for shoes that are not obvious they’re height adjusting then these would be it.
These elevator shoes are very, very comfortable and stylish.I ordered one size larger than I usually order in elevator shoes playing it safe in case they ran smaller so i ended up with a larger shoe than needed because they are true to size, my mistake, but i was able to place insets that fixed the problem. That said, these shoes are one of the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned, I love the style, the color and fashion.
I'm a 5 foot 6 inch man. I can always use a little height help but I don't want it to be obvious. I got the black model of these shoes. They go great with jeans. If you have jeans that have a little longer inseam, the pant legs will cover the top of the shoes which I think sufficiently hides the fact that these are lifts. The more of the top of the shoe you can see, the more it looks "different" and probably tips off others that you are getting height help. I like the quality and build of these shoes and they do provide a good height enhancement. My reason for one star off though is because I really would want more arch support in the insole. The insole is basically flat and slanted upwards towards the heel, but without any arch support, it feels awkward. It's probably something women are used to with their shoes, but I am not. If you put your own arch support in, these make very nice shoes at a good value.
I was skeptic on these shoes. But they proved me wrong. I am 5'-5" and these made me stand up taller. I could tell a difference and they are comfortable also. I was skeptic at first because I knew they would change the arch of my foot and it was not bat at all. Takes about 10 minutes of walking to get used to the arch and no problems. They are good looking shoes and fit well.5 stars!!!!
These boots offer a refined and comfortable style, subtly adding about 2 inches to your height, not the claimed 3 inches, which is advantageous for a discreet boost. When paired with long pants that cover the top of the boots, they resemble classic, dressy footwear, providing the height boost akin to normal cowboy boots but without the bulk of a thick heel. Despite typically wearing a size 9.5, my feet measure at 9 inches, and the size 9 boots fit me perfectly. It's worth noting that height-increasing shoes from brands like Toto and Calto can be relatively expensive, constituting a downside.
Love the slip on with easy very lite weight an breathable but still warm very stylish great for any occasion perfect for that tall friend with big feet gives an extra bit to your height with the slip on of a shoe comes in great packaging a shoe slip for if you have trouble bending very nicely designed and put together two thumbs up 👍👍
First about the shoes. They are atheistically pleasing and stylish for men's shoes. The material is soft, and the heel is very absorbing. Overall, they are nice to look at and the craftsmanship appear to be above average. Now about the fit. They're pretty much high heels for men. For me, this created pain in my arches and knees after wearing them for 10 hours with being on my feet for most of that time. Your experience may be different, but the discomfort I experienced has convinced me that these shoes are necessarily the best fit for me. Your experience may be different. Having said that, the shoes are nicely made and the size fit is as expected.
These boots are very nice and conformable even though they make you look about 2 inches taller (NOT 3" as claimed) , which is better because you can hardly tell they give you a boost in height. If you ware pants long enough where you have the cuffs cover the top of the boots, they look like normal classy, dress-up boots. They give you the height of normal cowboy boots without the thick heel.I usually wear size 9.5 in size, but my feet size is actually 9" so these came at size 9" and fit me perfectly.Usually Toto and Calto height-increasing shoes are quite expensive, that's the downside.
