Let's Talk about Shoes

If you are thinking of competing or just picked out a show congratulations! This is going to be an exciting journey! There are a few things that you’ll need to make the most out of your contest prep. Shoes are one of them! There are a few guidelines to follow and options to pick from. Let us break it down for you.

If you’d rather watch us break it down you can check out our YouTube channel here.

  1. Clear Heels
    You can’t just wear any ole heels on stage, at least I don’t recommend it. You’ll want to make sure you look the part by wearing clear heels on stage. These clear heels are also common in the exotic dance world as well so they may be sold in those types of stores, but I usually pick mine up online and be sure to read reviews about sizing.

  2. Platform & Heel Height

    Under 5’6: you can get away with a higher platform under the toe, they tend to be easier to walk in because your ankle needs to bend less
    Over 5’6: I’d stick with 1/2 inch platform and 4-inch heel

  3. Straps vs Buckles
    Buckles around the ankle can offer peace of mind to know that your foot won’t fall out of your shoe while on stage, but I personally feel very secure in my two strap pleasure heels with 1/2in platform. You may want to try a friends on and see what you like!

  4. Rhinestones or not
    This is a personal choice, it won’t be scored directly, but I chose to keep it simple and invest my rhinestones on my suit. I have seen rhinestones on shoes that are a distraction or fall apart if the quality is low. They can be fun, but aren’t a show day need for me! If you do want the extra bling, I’d invest in a good quality pair so they don’t fall apart on you!
