They are made for professional ballroom dancers and latin dancers and have padded insoles and are shock absorbent, and you can spray paint them the same as any other sneaker, boot or shoe.

Hello miss lady, don't people mash yuh foot in fetes? Anyhow not often, and I figure if I mash them, they in more problems than if they mash me.

I wore sandals to customs and jump in Powder Possee w/ the Rasta and them already w/o getting mash so I am accustomed.

I never get a blister from a shoe, like the blisters I get from sneakers. Not me and no sneakers on the road ever again in life.

I would wear those for Labor Day but Trinidad is a MUCH longer route. I don't think I could handle wearing those all day.

I saw you on the Parkway with them, now it makes sense if they come padded, etc. I was wondering how you did it! LOL!

I like the 2nd pair myself...what are the price ranges for these? Because I find heels do look better with a costume, but I am always afraid of toe-mash or pain!

About $70 - $85 about the same as sneakers.

I don't like pain so trust me if they hurt I would not be wearing them.

Monty...
I tried the heel thing for Labor Day (Wedge Heel Sneaker), NEVA,NEVA, NEVA again. Looked great, was comfortable in the beginning, not a good shoe for rain...talk about slide: and by the time we crossed judging my face was bend and screw like yuh wouldn't believe..Pain...Pressure, talk about burn meh foot burning.

Far less in Trinidad where the jump is never ending...NOT ME, and I can handle heels on the regular.
