Alternate suggestion: be tall and wear regular platform boots. Tower over me.
why not both?
My fear is that people would notice the unnaturally short lower legs and also I’m 193cm tall, I need to just embrace being a tall mommy type girly
depending on the outfit, i dont think people would notice, but your right tall girls are great (source: trust me)
I would pay so much for these
It’s not exactly this but have you considered barefoot shoes? They have a super-thin sole so they naturally take some height off you, compared to “normal” shoes. I wear them for completely different reasons (as a cis man who has found these to help with feet pain and posture after being a kid with flat feet), but I thought you’d appreciate the tip.
Groundies make them with “normal” looking soles, but it’s all an optical illusion - they have a strip around them so the sole looks “thick”, “normal” and “fashionable”. Essentially a less exaggerated version of that drawing:
Caveat: they’re more niche and therefore expensive. Also not everyone enjoys the idea of walking without cushioning and feeling the texture of the ground.
this must be created immediately
I’d easily pay $200 before I even thought twice about it
