Special Shoes

 
 
     
 
These shoes started as standard 2 1/2inch heeled oxfords. Our shoemaker took about two weeks to remake the soles. The soles are somewhat soft and very cushiony to walk in. Walking is much easier than the normal ballet oxford or boot. I have become accustomed to walking in ballet ankle boots and can wear them for about 8 hours. These new oxfords can be worn all day and really help in stretching the leg muscles. They cost only about $150. They don't look that great but are very functional.

I have been working on increasing my arches and have a pair of ballet boots we have modified where the sole of the toes almost touches the heel. (Done with heavy tape).

Would love to find a ballet boot maker who would custom make a pair for me. The total length is only 2 3/4 inches. Barely walkable if you keep moving.

My goal is to someday be able to spend the entire day in the increased arch boots. When we do find that custom boot maker we will send you pictures.

I wear the shoes outside and usually with a long dress or pants.  I have one pair of pants that are 4 inches longer than normal.  Unfortunately, we have no pictures of either right now.
