Women--- heeled or flat shoes? Which one are you more comfortable with?

I am not very tall - 5'4" - and I hate wearing heels. It doesn't bother me that I am short. I would rather be comfortable and not ruin my feet.

I love the way high heels look and the way thwey make me feel, but I prefer flats for comfort. Before I had kids I always wore heels, but now it is too hard to carry children and stay balanced in heels. Or to chase a toddler running off in heels.

I wear heels to Rexy since I'm not very tall either. But the heels available here in the US are too pointed and I find it hard to walk on them, my feet tend to hurt after a while. I prefer platform or block heels. I also wear flat footwear. I think I have more heels than flats though..lol Regular use of heels isn't good for various health reasons is what I've heard.

I like heeled but I hae a hard time finding any dress shoes because I wear a 5 narrow. Pluse evenif I can find any they usually end up hurting my feet. The flats fall off my heels and the heeled hurt my toes. So, luckly (I guess) I'm not workingright now so I wear sneakers which feel better.

I enjoy wearing high heels because a lot of the time I feel like they look the best and make me feel sexier. I wear flats more often though, just because they're more comfortable.

I prefer flat heels or really low heels for comfort. I wore high heels for years and now my legs are paying the price. Do what you think is best!

I'm only 5 foot even so I try to were high heels but I'm not so good at walking in them. I try to get the ones with more of a chunk heel, but a lot of times I just wear my gym shoes because so many times you find when you are wearing heels it makes it dificult to do things. I have more heels then flats but that don't mean I wear the heels more.

as i'm tall i dont need a heeled one... i will look more taller if i wear one... i was ones crazy of those heeled shoes but now i'm wearing my flat shoes with which i feel very comfortable... i can walk easy or run with my flat ones but not with those heels...

Actress Nicole Kidman famously remarked after her divorce from Tom Cruise, 'At least I can wear high heels again' - demonstrating an addiction to height that is shared by many women. There can be many plus and minus points of wearing high heels.They tone calf and thigh muscles,They improve circulation in the legs, They may ease low-back problems, They can strain the knees and increase the risk of arthritis, They reduce mental alertness , They can compact the spine, They increase the risk of foot problems including bunions and metatarsalgia, which is pain in the ball of the foot. personally, i ususally prefer flat shoes as i'm tall enough to look good without high heels.heels are only preferred by me on certain occassions and if the attire demands so.

well for me it always depends mean i wear shoes according to occasion and situtaion and offcourse its alot depends on my attire,,,like for tracking and travelling i prefer my sneakers,then for some traditional occasion my siluttes are great and for simple walk again any flats will do and there are n number of matching which i prefer with my dresses.and yes i have more then 20 sandle with heels of metal,wood,crystal in my shoe collection.

high heeled shoes? oh i just love them! yes, it does make you look taller...and adds a little more confidence in yourself, doesn't it? my sisters wonder how i could walk around so comfortably in them, but its just a matter of getting used to. plus, to those girls with tiny little behinds... high heeled shoes raise those things up a little...so start wearing those stilletos!

I love high heeled shoes and used to wear them all the time up until I had my first kid. After that I started wearing them less and less. This is especially true now that I am heavier than I was as a teen. But now days I love flats and they have some really cute ones out there. I still wear heals when the occasion calls for it, but my feet pay for it later.

definitly flat shoes are the most comfortable but with heels i look better and feel much more good looking and powerful..i think that the answer would be..it depends on what occasion

I'm 5'4" but don't feel that I'm short. When I was a teenager I would wear high heels all the time. I didn't find them uncomfortable at all but as I am getting older I find them extremely uncomfortable. I get blisters on my toes from being crammed into the shoe. I get pain in my back from the change in posture and I usually get blisters on my heels because the shoes are so inflexible in the back. Now I wear comfortable flat shoes or a very low heel of no more than 1 1/2 inches and have no issues with my back, toes or heels.

Well, im only 5 feet 3 inches tall so i really should wear heels i guess. Also Ihave short fat stubby legs, so its even more important that i do. However, i find them very uncomfortable and just cant get used to them however long i practice walking in them, i still fall off them. Its flat shoes for me every time blessed be

I don't find comfort in wearing high heels, however, I find them to be more feminine and sexy. Therefore, I tend to wear them way more often then flats. I think high heels look great with a pair of jeans even.

I mainly wear flat shoes unless I am going somewhere special. I am short also (so dont feel bad) but I have a bad back and it is hard for me to stay in them long.. usually by the end of the night i am barefoot on the dancefloor. I like them because they make me look taller but also makes my legs look great

when i was younger i wore very high heels but now i am old i feel safer and also more comfortable in flats!

i have more slippers and flipflops.. i am not also gifted with a much more lovely height but i still wear flats.. im more comfortable with themm.. but i do agree that high heeled shoes makes me more confident and sexy when i walk.. but it just kills my feet.. :)

I used to wear heels everyday last year, but stopped. They're not good for your back and if they are crammed you can get hammertoes. Which is what I have =( I'm so mad! Don't wear heels if they feel too tight!
