Marilyn's Photos - June 11 2026 - How High the Heels
Very high heels are popular again. That is despite guidance on how to calculate your ideal heel height. 1. Measure the total length of your foot from heel to toe in centimetres 2. Divid foot length by 7 cm 3. Get your ideal heel height
While the average heel height for women's footwear is 3 inches or 7.6 cm, there's something in the stratosphere called "sky-high" heels. They are 5+ inches and easily are in the range of 6 to 9 inches.
An image search on Google gives so many pictures to marvel at. Who would guess some of these are shoes? If there were no legs showing, we might not know what the item is. There are versions with high heels and platform souls at the front. This makes them less steep.
Don't think this is only for women, as men's sky=-high heels have been around for a while. I guess the difference is that they aren't marketed to regular men, but to rock bands, sports figures and fringe dressers. They are promoted as being a tool for inclusive gender expression.
The proliferation of pictures and videos on social media mean everything's possible. The number one selling shoe in the world is the Nike Air Force 1 - it actively promotes its sales numbers compared to other brands. It seems to be a pleasant and comfortable looking shoe. You can get an Air Force 1 with heels, though.
I guess I am thinking of high heels because it is high school graduation time. I went to a few graduations for Rotary, and got to take pictures of the footwear that the girls wore. The shoes were the highlight of their outfits.
