How do you make heels more comfortable to walk in?
Do you have any tricks to making heels more comfortable? Have you tried gel inserts? I love high heels but they make the balls of my feet hurt so bad from slamming against the ground all day. Is there any help or do all women just suck it up and deal with it?
Yeah, I haven't actually tried inserts yet...
I wear heels maybe once every two months at most, I'm not worried about the damage. Just worried about being more comfortable when I DO wear them. I'll try the inserts, thanks!

Yes ma'am the gel inserts are heavenly! : ) I think they are a must have. I also like to use the small sticky gel inserts for whatever pressure points you may also feel when you stand in whatever particular pair of heels. You can buy variety packs, which are great. I once had a pair of very uncomfortable heels (but looked great with a particular outfit...) but after I covered them (almost every spot that could rub or press, hahaha) with all the gel inserts, it was like walking on air! Whoo!
Anyway, try them, they will make your life MUCH easier! Also, try and make sure the heels fit well, a lot of women size up in heels because they feel better when they try them on, but it actually causes more pain after you WALK in them for more than a few steps around the shoe store. Hmm..my only other suggestion is don't forget to kick them off every time you can get away with it! (You know, when you can't see your feet because you are sitting at a desk or table.)
Oh, and I actually carry the gel insert variety pack for pressure points in my purse. It's really just a must have! Good luck!

The gel inserts are good, it's definitely worth trying them.
I try to stick to chunky high heels so that my weight isn't all on the balls of my feet, that helps too.

They make a gel insert for the ball of the foot that also helps keep the foot from sliding forward. I think they are a Dr. Scholl's product.

make particular the footwear line up completely with your feet....ie, your arches extra healthy conveniently over the shoe's arch. which will help lots. yet another area of do is learn gradually. as quickly as you are able to stroll conveniently (soreness-unfastened) in a pair of somewhat heeled footwear, flow to larger ones. do no longer choose for stilettos suitable away, artwork with a corpulent heel first and as you grasp each height, bypass a splash larger.
