    Default What are the strongest stripper shoes?

    I've had two pairs of Pleasers for literally about a month and they BOTH fucking snapped after an ankle roll. So I'm wondering which brand of heels are the best. I heard Tony's are pretty durable but now I'm down to wearing two different Pleaser heels that aren't broken until I save enough to get better heels. Help?

    I honestly think it's some freak accident kind of stuff going on. Like, you're talking the hard platform and heel part right? Not the straps or sole? In 7 years I've seen maybe 2 pairs of heels break at the hard part. Pleasers are one of the most durable brands of shoes I have ever worn. I can make mine last 2 years when I'm extreamly careful.

    I'd say go down an inch in heel height. If you are mis-stepping you may not be adjusted to the height difference well. It's a muscle memory thing. Kind of what makes you able to walk straight or climb stairs without looking. Your muscles get used to a certain motion and if the variables are changed to quickly the body can have a hard time adjusting.

    Thanks! The floors in my club are SUPER uneven so I've been thinking of moving elsewhere anyway since the money well is a bit dry there too.

    Ya, floors in my club are the same way. It used to be a feed store back in the day, so it's that hard, un-level concrete. The kind of floor where you memorize where the bad spots are. One of our dancers wears 10 inch heels, but has a back up pair that are 8 inches for when she drinks.

    I always wear 7 inchers. Looooove them. Thankfully the designs on the undamaged shoes aren't too crazy and they're both black so I can just wear those two until I get another pair.

    You may also find boots to be a bit more durable as well as more stable. I have had pump-type shoes break a lot faster in general than boots, mainly bc I find them so difficult to walk in. A quality pair of boots, I do a lot of pole work & I've found I get a good 5-6mo out of them b4 the platforms start to separate. If you don't want the added heat/weight/grip of boots, a thicker heel may be all you need to get that extra bit of stability, esp on those troublesome club floors.

    Sweet! I may opt for a pair of boots. I've never tried them before so I'm not sure if they would look good on me or not lol

    Here's a good place to start looking. My favourite pair came from ElectriqueBoutique.com. You can also find knee- & ankle-high styles as well. I just prefer thigh-high or knee-high w/ lots of thick socks underneath to save my joints.

    If you go the boots route, definitely consider getting ankle boots rather than thigh-highs if you're a hustler. Many men love to see dancers' entire legs, and boots can really cover up a lot of skin.

    Do I remember correctly that you're taller? Or am I completely making that up? I'd imagine taller girls would be more prone to shoes breaking.

    My issue is the bottom parts on the platforms peeling off after a while! It's awful but superglue can help temporarily

    But yeah, Pleasers have been pretty good for me. I replace them every few months though because they're not made to last forever and I don't like having shabby shoes with bits of glue on them or scratches lol.

    Can you get those things that glue/stick on to the bottom of the shoe? They sell them everywhere, even @ Wal mart/Target etc I believe
    Edit, found this, this's what I mean: http://www.discountstripper.com/non-...ole-grips.aspx

    Also, I agree w/Charlie about the boots, if it were me, I'd get this style in plain black, not the print. I like the open toe, so ur foot can breathe http://www.discountstripper.com/deli...nkle-boot.aspx

    I'm finding myself wondering if the OP might have better luck with shoes that have slightly more flexible soles than shoes that are made out of rock-hard materials. In theory, the flexible shoes would bend slightly instead of breaking, whereas the hard soles would snap since they can't bend.

    Obviously all stripper shoes are hard-soled, but some of them are definitely harder than others. I think the cheaper ones (lower-end Ellies, for example) tend to be more flexible since they're made out of a different material.

    Me, personally? I bought & returned 2 pr of cheaper Ellies. They just didn't 'feel right'..seemed uncomfy. I love my basic pleasers, (so far, just breaking them in, which took hardly any effort)
    The black 5" ankle strps, got 'em from Snazz.

    How long ago did you get them? I personally have had good luck with them, but I've seen more pleasers break in this year than I've ever seen in my years of dancing. It almost makes me wonder if they are doing something different in the factories.

    ^ My prior pair of Pleasers lasted 6 months of full-time dancing before the front slip-in part separated from the sole... bf superglued it and I wore them once a week for another 4 months before they started peeling off again. Now my other expensive rhinestoned Pleasers that I got in December are already starting to feel that 'loose' sort of way, where they are likely to start separating. I agree that the factory might be doing something different.

    Ellies are cheap and I found them to be very uncomfortable, mostly cause the plastic was hard and even melting it didn't stop it from cutting my toes open. It was secretly a relief when my dog ate them.

    Honestly - I love Pleasers and Tonys. My only complaint about Tony shoes is that they tend to be a little on the narrow side (at least IMO) - my feet aren't super wide either.. Just an adjustment - but I find both to be pretty durable. My main problem is that I tear up the soles from floorwork - I started packing super glue in my bag and that works like a charm. I saw a lot of people say about thigh high boots - those are my personal favorites however.. The club I worked at frowned on those.. So I also like ankle boots.. They give you a little support and they look cool too!

    I get my shoes made by TONY. Tony's shoes. I shit you not when I tell you I've had the same 3 pairs of shoes by Tony for 12 years. I've has the rubber part redone on the sole by a shoemaker and one strap repaired, thats it. They key to keeping your straps from breaking is ALWAYS unbuckle them, don't pull them off, not even in the vip room.

    any shoe repair place can put a new black rubber on the bottoms for less than $10 for the pair. Takes a day or two if he's busy.

    Yea - what she said ^^ I have 2 pairs of Tony's - one pair of ankle boots and one pair of strappy heels - both 7 inch. I've had 'em for at least a year - love 'em.. Especially the ankle boots.. I did tear up the soles on those at little - super glue fixed that - was extra careful so no residue.. I did not realize you can get the bottoms replaced like that - good to know! I'll always take a tube of super glue to the club though for emergencies.. Just for the record I also love my Pleaser shoes and boots - I have had them all for a while and other than scuffs - I have no issues or maintenance with them. Since I have had them for a while I can't speak for an changes in their new lines as to quality.. Good question though because I've noticed more places are selling them..

    I'm having a hell of a time with shoes lately. I broke a pair of Highest Heels last night. The insole separated from the hard plastic and the ankle strap broke. The pair before that was Pleaser and one of the criss cross toe straps came off.

    I exchanged the pair that I broke last night for another pair of Pleasers (bless those store employees for accepting them back as defective) and I made sure that the toe strap is fabric like, so they'll be less likely to over stretch or stick to the pole and tear.

    I'm getting sick of spending $100 on a pair of shoes that lasts 2 weeks, if I'm lucky.

    I had Pleasers and they're still in fine shape, but were a bit high for me after taking some time off dancing so I bought a lower pair of Lapdance brand and, so far so good!
