    12 Inch Platform Shoes - Anyone know where to find?

    Okay, I've been given a mission....

    Find a pair of 12 inch (or higher) platform shoes. So far all the sites I've searched for shops in the US, 8.5 inches seems to be the max height.

    I did find a pair of 12 inch platforms and even a pair or 16 inch platforms (pictured below) from a shop in England, but the cost is like $680 and $1,200 repsectively after the exchange rate.

    Anyone know of any other places to find EXTREAMLY high platforms? Preferably a little cheaper.

    Please let me know. Thanks.

    --------------------------------------------------------

    Btw - I have checked out the resources on my Dancer Gear - Online Resources thread but I'll re-link it here, just in case someone else should trip across this thread in the future. Thanks.

    I don't understand..why would someone want 12in platforms. Yuck, 8+in already look hideous enough..but 12in.

    For something that high, maybe you'll have to get them custom made.

    ^Completely agree with Cin.

    I don't understand why someone would want to torture themselves like that. 12 inch heels? Damn. I'm happy enough with my 6", I'd probably break something if I attempted 12".

    Have you tried ? There are few on there, but you'll have to weed out the results, because that type of search returns results for Size 12 shoes as well.

    Good Luck.

    Well she's not going to run a marathon in them. LOL I'm sure she's not going to be working an entire shift in them, just more of a novelty thing. She already has a few 8.5" platforms, and was just looking to get a pair of 12" platforms for .... well .... just because dammit! LOL hehehehe.

    Hey, to be honest, I don't understand how women walk in any height paltform. I'm happy to be a guy, so I can stick to my flats, thank you very much. Actually she doesn't consider it torture. She's been a dancer in some form for most of her life, so I guess she's got very strong legs, ankles, and feet along with incredible balance. Surprisingly she's able to walk in or on pretty much anything. heh. (see a pic below of one of her favorite pairs of shoes)

    Rhi, thanks for the e-bay link, I'll take a look.

    Actually,I think that shoes like that will bring more money,because they will stand out so much.But...how are you going to walk especially dance in those?And the club will have to have very high ceilings to fit you.

    LOL ... I think the reason she wants to move up from her 8.5" platforms to 12"+ is because that's what she'll need to be able to touch the ceiling while standing on stage.

    Heh. Like I mentioned, I'm not too woried about her falling off them. She loves funky shoes, and so far, what ever I've been able to find, she's been able to walk on. She could prolly walk a tight rope on stage if they strung one up between the stage poles. heh.

    Hey Rhi, now these are skate shoes.... Check these out, they're like the ones above, but they're missing an arch! Guess where I found these... yup, the little Chinese shops in Providence.

    Wow i remember when a sex shop had some knee high boots 16" heels in their window display a few years back and me and my friend just used to stand and stare at them for ages lol. Never seen any since the shop closed down though.

    oh my god i was just sitting here thinking about how tall i would be if i put those things on.. i would be like one of those stilt walkers at the circus... i am 5'10, and with those i would be... hmmm .lets see, about 6'10 if i added correctly..... um i think i would make either zero dollars that night or a ton of money just bc it would amuse people to see an already tall girl with stilt looking shoes on..... i mean do people actually wear those to dance in... the tallest i've ever seen has been eight inch.. i couldn't even imagine trying to dance in a heel that tall...

    I'd like to try them on just for the novelty of them and to know how it feels like to be 5'9", lol! (Yes, I am that short... 4'9") I wouldn't want to dance in them though or spend the dough to try them....

    If someone does have a go at them, do report back!

    I have 81/2 inches heel but i've never seen shoes more than 9 inches. Already with my 8 inches everybody taught I was so tall and i'm just 5'5'', they were surprised when I take off my shoes. Even 8 inches was dangerous tought.

    I can barely walk in the 7.5 inch ones I bought. I fall in a split second. I just watched The Price is Right and one of the models was on a treadmill in clear plastic platforms, probably 6 inch. That was still pretty daring of her!

    I could not find too much on the net either.

    Here are those 15 inch stainless steel platforms:
