Do you buy shoes for its comfort or for its style?

Same here as I was telling my cousin. Well she learned her lesson well. Thanks! « Gab »

Well I buy my shoes for its comfort and its style. I like shoes that make feel comfortable and sexy. So I go for both To look sexy u have to be comfortable!

Every now-and-then, I might - MIGHT - sacrifice comfort for extreme style. (Notice I said 'extreme'). However, if momma isn't happy, NOBODY is happy! The comfort neccesity usually wins! I agree with the person above me: in order to look sexy, you have to feel sexy, and wearing shoes that are uncomfortable don't make you look sexy when your face is balled up in pain. Let's talk style, though. I tend to go for platform/wedge shoes if I want to add height and have style, and be comfortable. High heels are dangerous, and bad for your calves and back muscles. They also make you more prone to leg clots, which can travel to your heart or lungs and KILL YOU. Regular, normal, everyday (average) platforms/wedge add height, and while the soles of platforms make your feet rest at an angle, they still keep your feet more or less 'level' than a high heel sole, which bends your arch into an unnatural position. They can also have really neat-looking carved/cut-out designs in the heel wedges, or even the entire wedge can be made of a carved image such as a heart, etc. However, the neat-looking carved heels can be a little like wearing high heels. I wish I could add a picture, but go to this web address to see what I'm talking about when I say 'extreme' style. Now, *THIS* I would definitely sacrifice comfort for! lol http://www.super-sexy-high-heels.com/images/karos2006/0535-4.jpg

I also don't care what others may say as long as I am comfortable with what I'm wearing. You are right in saying that the feet needs to be taken cared of. Thanks for the response. « Gab »

Well....i read some of the responses you received and have one question;who is buying all the expensive shoes?(my logic;style = costs).But there must be a market for them or they would not be produced.

Good question Lone. Yeah most of the responses went for comfort but most also considered style. Well I guess most of women also consider style and a respondent answered that well. She would not mind buying stylish shoes with consideration. I would buy some stylish shoes if needed but most of my shoes are bought because of comfort. « Gab »

you're welcome gab, enjoy!

Thanks Checa, I always as much as possible buy shoes with comfort and style. Durability is also what i consider in buying shoes. « Gab »

Yea ... you are absolutely right....

I know how important we need to be nto tired when we get to the office to work well. Leather is good and lasts long.

At times that I know that I will be taking long walks in the mall or anywhere I also wear sandals for my feet not to get hurt and be comfortable. Thanks for sharing. « Gab »

Yup, you are right.

I think its always like that as we get older that the feet cant take the weight anymore and of course having no pain in the feet is more important these days to stay healthy and strong. « Gab »

I cant blame you for that and I too would buy comfortable shoes if I have trouble walking myself. A lot of times high heeled shoes makes one uncomfortable after an hour or more. « Gab »

Budget is really also needed consideration in buying shoes. Good point there. « Gab »

How our feet moves at times in the day affects somewhat our back as it carries more our weight. I agree that in order to know if they are comfortable, well I also try them out first. Thanks and I hope you are wearing comfy shoes now so as not to hurt your back. « Gab »

I agree with you as shoes should compliment your style and its a necessity for a great outfit and need not forget to consider. I guess you are a stylish person. « Gab »

I agree with you that it makes no sense in walking around with very nice shoe when your feet terribly hurt. « Gab »

Showing off a nice looking shoes but your feet getting hurt is not good for me also. « Gab »

I also bring a flat shoes or slippers and wear them going home to let my feet rest as well. Thanks Underthesun. « Gab »

I agree with you on that ans same as you, I don't buy much of those fad shoes as I would wear them only for a short time and it wont bring me my money's worth back. « Gab »

I also buy what I need and not always to be in style. Thanks for responding. « Gab »

Thanks Saundryl. I also have shoes that are worn out but because of the comfort they bring, I still wear them once in a while. I also hate shoes that rubs my toes and get hurt or painful at he end of the day. « Gab »

there are indeed a lot of shoes today that is comfy and in style and yes i try them out first. I consider both if I can. « Gab »
