I have this problem with high heels where i can only wear an open toe heels?

I really can't wear closed heels at all icon_question.gif

I'll get really painful blisters at my little toe... at the end! Sometimes even the side of my big toe.

I'm size 4.

I thought that my heels might be too small so I try to take size 4 1/2 but the heels keep coming off @ my ankle. AND I still get blisters cry.gif cry.gif I really wanna wear a closed high heels. It look soooo elegant. I wanna wear it out with my boyfriend (who doesn't care about what I wear on my feet) for onceee!

Am I walking the wrong way? Because anyhow, all the weight will be on the anterior part of my feet... so either way my feet is gonna fall 'into' the heels ... I don't know how to explain shakehead.gif

p/s: I tried sticking some weird transparent jelly-ish thingy too sad.gif

I also have that problem, even with open toe heels I can get blisters sad.gif
I heard that leather shoes usually wont cause blisters. Aldo shoes are supposedly very comfortable.
Unfortunately, I haven't try them so I can't be 100% sure sweat.gif

It takes time to get used to it. I had blisters before but now it is ok. I don't wear them that often too.

Bite those shoes before it bites you. Joking. Have you tried those 'socks' which covers only the toes? Should be OK for toe covered heels

There is nothing wrong. You have broad feet that's all. Try to look for shoes with wider front, close or open-toe does not matter. As long as the front is wide, you can wear it.

In US, shoes do come in wider range, normally with the letter W after the size number. I have seen some of those shoes in "Pay Less" shops but there are not many choices for size 4 though.

I can't walk straight once I have blisters. And IDK if i should call it 'blisters' but the skin would come off right away~ like POOF and it's out. =/

is there a 'way' to make my existing shoe broader in front? I remember the shop having some weird wooden thing that increase the shoe size or something. not sure if that's the thing

Have you tried the rounded/ square toe ones? The pointed toe heels have more adverse effects since they squeeze your toes together, easily causing bunions.
