I Wore 5-Toe High Heels For A Week

HELLO FRIENDS!! the ugly fashion series is BACK! so sorry for the delay in uploading, we're just trying to get our operations situated in our new spot! hopefully there will not be quite so long a wait for the next video :) quick note -- I did include some pre-2020 footage, so anything you see inside of me in a store is from before 2020! also, we made sure to take any sans-mask shots in very isolated areas. captions are on their way -- should be up by tonight! hope you guys enjoy the video -- what do you think of these bad boys? xoxo, saf

The problem with these is that the very concept of high heels is opposite to "5 toe" shoes. 5 toe shoes are all about being ergonomic and comfortable and don't care that they look dumb, but the very purpose of high heels is to look good at the cost of being uncomfortable.

If Balenciaga doesn't at the very least give Safiya extreme discounts or financial compensation of some sort at this point, she's really missing out because she's just out there doing all this free advertising for them.

[@bhaktikataria7561]

yes because we’re def buying these xD

I think she bought them on Farfetch which does offer discounts on first orders or with promo codes so hopefully she didn’t pay full price

[@SpeedDemonStar]

@@bhaktikataria7561 Well, with some folks (even if they're the minority) replying to her posts & videos with "those are cool" or "I want those," there is a chance that some of the people seeing her posts/pics & video of these might very well buy them, hence why she should get some compensation for the free advertisement she's doing for them.

The level of pain she was in is precisely why Vibram was sued over these shoes (the flat versions.) They were supposed to be good for your feet, but people actually were getting hairline fractures. I sincerely hope Safiya's feet recover and have no lasting damage!

[@katrina.c1796]

Wait really!! Nooo i wanted to buy this so bad

[@mak3960]

How did the flat versions cause hairline fractures? Like walking on your own flat foot doesn’t cause hairline fracture?

[@daand.1042]

@@mak3960 I don't know, but maybe because your toes aren't really supposed to get wedgies xD or like she mentioned, that her index toe was super cramped up in there. Maybe these shoes could be good if they properly fit your feet, but people have lots of different feet types so that'd be hard. Another reason I can think of is that walking on hard, flat surfaces (paved streets, stone, concrete) asks a lot more from your feet than walking on softer more varied terrain (like grass or dirt/ground or sand)

[@codyhughes1147]

Vibrams are great. People who wear them tend to move their bodys more and be more risky so obviouly youre more prone to injury but its not because of the shoe its self really. This high heel one however us an absolute joke.

I've used my old regular Vibrams for walking up the creek and you're right about the parts where the water leaks and it doesn't dry quickly either, neither the shoe nor your sock, even if you only wear them for the water part of your journey and put on regular hiking boots for the part that's on land and even if you bring a towel and dry your feet off thoroughly before putting dry socks and boots on. I got HUGE blister by walking two miles to the creek in my Keen hiking boots (highly recommend!), a mile both ways up and back down the creek in my old Vibrams, and then drying my feet off and putting on dry socks with my boots again and walking the 2 miles back home. The blisters got bad within a mile or less on my way home after hiking in the water, even though I dried my feet off with a microfiber towel and everything, so I was literally limping the last mile back. Still, walking in the creek with the Vibrams on was still much better than walking barefoot because the thin sole was still enough to keep me from really feel the pain whenever I happened to step on a little rock in the creek. I air-dried my feet for a while after that and I got new insoles for my hiking boots so that I usually don't get blisters when I go on that same hike. Oh and I should also mention that I hike with like an 80 lb backpack full of stuff because I want to go backpacking so I'm trying to condition for it. That would put the weight on my feet much closer to 300 lbs than it is to 200 lbs too, which puts more stress on my feet and my shoes than I would put on them just walking normally, although I'd still probably carry at least 10 lbs of water on that hike no matter what.

[@theresabu3000]

For anyone trying out new outdoor shoes - don't also add weight or go on long walks. Try them out on short walks for a week maybe - and add thick socks too. A huge backpack I would only add after maybe a month and a few longer walks. Barefoot "shoes" don't seem to be designed for really rough terrains or heavy weights - though vibram soles on hiking boots are great.
