EBAY! Seriously! I got a pair of shoes off there for 15 dollars! Just type stripper into the category of womens shoes. Anyway, Six inch is standard for heel size to start. Some clubs may let you wear fives but you have to call and find out if they have a minimum.
ALWAYS choose platforms of at least 2 inches that way there is a shock absorber between your foot and the floor. Plus that extra 2 inches makes that 6 inch heel feel like only 4. Buy one whole size larger than you actually wear, these things are made small. I wear a 6 normally and always buy a 7.
Cone or stilleto? (at least you didn't say "chunky" LOL) I think they are equally attractive but a cone might be easier to walk in. Choose something with an open toe and an ankle strap. The open toe keeps you toes from being mashed and the ankle strap keeps the shoe on your foot a lot better.
After you get used to them you can upgrade to slip on's if you want and even to higher heels. When you recieve them: Wear them doing housechores. Vacuuming is the best, because you have to pivot around and stuff. Practice a LOT! It will get easy and you'll feel SO sexy! If you need more help feel free to PM me!!

I don't think there's any average, though people seem to use a 6" heel here. I think it depends on how tall you are and what you feel you can walk in without falling, though it doesn't take long to get used to the taller heels. I use 6" clear platform stilettos myself, though I started with 5" ones as they were easier to walk in. I tried 8" heels and though they look cool they also made me taller than virtually every customer in the club (I'm 5"10).
I agree with Heaven, 6 inch with a 2 inch platform - open toe and ankle strap. That's pretty basic. I got my first pair pair off ebay and they were great. My second pair was off www.snaz75.com and they were Ellie's, I didn't like them as much, but that site has a huge selection. And, I did have to do a size exchange (go bigger) and it was easy to do a return. And then I just got a pair of Tony's (recommended by the ladies here) from www.liquiddreams.com and they are awesome!
Do practice in them, and then your first few weeks at work remember to be a little careful - walk slower and don't drink a lot and mess up your balance!![]()

careful with sizing when doing online orders! i generally wear a size 6.5 or 7, but in stripper shoes, i need a six (if they are just a tiny bit too big, your toes will slide through the opening inthe front and you'll have a bunch of extra room in the back by the heel) I think its better to start with a shoe that is snug, because it will stretch out as you wear it, and you avoid the blisters that occur from a loose shoe rubbing on your feet.


have you thought about boots? they're about a million times easier to walk in than shoes, especially when you're just starting. I've actually met girls (features in fact) who will only wear boots. Obviously having boots could limit what you can wear in the beginning, but in the beginning you may only have two or three outfits so if they all happen to match with boots then you're set!




Just ordered a pair of thigh high black pattent 7 inch heel boots from
www.snaz75.com
Looove them.Not expensive,good quality,arrives fast in the mail in a brown paper wrapped box.
Try the chunky heel ones,they are more stable,and easier to dance in.





I agree. I typically wear a 7.5 or 8 yet wore size 7 in my stripper shoes. If the shoe is too snug blast the plastic vamp with a hair dryer until it is soft and malleable (about 20 seconds) and then slip the shoe onto your foot. It will cool and mold to your foot perfectly.Originally Posted by tampadancer
I noticed the average size to be 7inch platform stilettos.
This is the sort of vamp I'm referring to:

oh, well that's a shitty picture. Hopefully you guys get the idea.





Boots, definitely. I have a pair of 6" black pvc thigh-high ones from www.snaz75.com. They need insoles but other than that, they are fairly comfortable, give good ankle suport, and protect your legs while you are learning pole work. They give good grip on the pole, also hide the bruises from the pole! I have heard of dancers having knee pads sewn into these, as well. I would suggest getting the ones with the laces up the sides instead of the front, both because it would be easier to install knee pads in those, and because some pole tricks involve bracing your shin against the pole.
If you order from Snaz75, they will waive your shipping charges if you buy more than a certain amount of merchandise. You might as well get a pair of clear cone heels like Heaven described. My first pair I ever bought was stilletto, and then I got the cones. Cones are MUCH easier to walk in, and the clear ones go with everything and make your legs look terrific.

thanks so much, I really want to get boots and shoes but with the prices I am going to have to decide one for now. youve all made my decision a bit easier, thanks.

Do you all prefer strappy shoes or slip ons???
Be careful - some clubs don't allow boots - mine doesn't.

I prefer strappy ones because I've seen way too many shoes flying across the room when a dancer attempts a pole trick (swing) with slip-on shoes.Originally Posted by Stipperella
Well I was planning strappy ones atleast intill Iam alittle used to dancing
amybell
those 6in clear heels with the platforms seem to be the most popular everywhere i go. i recommend getting ones with ankle straps. some girls dont wear those kind, but i would find it embarrasing to do a pole trick and have a shoe fly off.

I started with a 6 inch heel and worked up to 7. 7 is definitely interesting. I was scared to walk in those at first, but I def. got used to it. The 7's made me look really tall and like I had long long legs
