When I was walking in the workshop this morning,I felt there was something wrong with the shoe of my left foot,so I raised the foot and observed for while but find nothing wrong.I continued to walk forward but still felt awkward,then the tragedy happened---the heel crack and fell off from the shoe.I have to took the shoes off and throw them away...will you do this if you have this kind of experience?

If the shoe can still be saved, I will take it to the shoe repair shop, but if it is really garbage, then its better throwing it away.

Hi,
So far, It never happened to me this kind of incident
while I am wearing high heel shoes.
But if it does happen, I will throw that pair of high heels shoes.
No point to mend them back,whose know,next time,I might
broken again.Too dangerous.
So far, it happened to me when I wear sandals.The front part of
my sandal was broken and that time I was in shopping mall.Lucky very near
to the shoe department store. I have to walk slowly to the shoe section
and look for best and comfortable sandal for myself. Very irritating and spoilt
my mood.
Nowadays, I always standby a spare sandal in my car,in case, it happen to me,
I will have a spare sandal to wear.

Shoes can be broken from any part of the body.maybe the heel,baybe the sole or maybe the vamp.No matter which part,it will influence the comfort of shoes.Just as you siad the best way of preventing self from being awkward due to the broken shoes is preparing another pair of shoes.

Hi juanjuanlevin, I won't dump the shoe without a heel if it's still in good condition. I would get the shoe fixed with a brand new heel somewhere at the shoe mender stall. If the heel of the other shoe is in an awful situation, I will get the heels of the whole pair of shoes fixed and replaced for sure.
There are several cobbler stalls available in the nearby streets here. It's worthy to spend a few dollars to get the old shoes mended or the heels replaced for they are still durable. I have a couple pairs of shoes with replaced new heels serve their purpose really well. It's more comfortable to put on old shoes which are so sooth to my feet
Have a nice day

if the shoes is still in good condition like the body of it still fine then i will just keep it and bring it to shoeshop for repair. since i bought shoes with signature as i want to have them for long than those cheaper but only last for few days nor month. if it happened to me then perhaps i will take taxi and buy some slipper or shoes around the corner or some store that sale shoes and slipper beside the street for emergency.

That shoes are not expensive and the reason I bought them is their style are fashionable.When I bought them I had considered that their lifetime would not be long,then the fact prove this fact.
