Modified High Heel

Post by carrie roberts 28 »

I am pretty new here but I have been playing around with high heels for a while since I was teens. Would someone tell me if these pictures are acceptable here?

I supply they are cross between abused and muddy. And they are not very expensive, I hope that's ok.

The right place, baby!


However, this is something totally new to me. This is not blind destruction of some shoes, this is actually an attempt to alter the appearance of a shoe ans still make the result show as elegant. Although some inhere do try sometimes to change shoes, in the end the result is the same, heels come off and the only thing left is a bare sole.


In my eyes, very refreshing. Nice work on these heels. Not the standard navy blue heels they were. They look really nice!


My compliments. Do continue please.

Those are awesome. I would love to see them modeled. RSVP are nice heels so they are not exactly the cheapest heel to play with. Love it.

Thanks everybody.

I still wear them once in a while. They are very comfortable in summer. Though, I clean them up before I wear them. In some case I put a little bit of clear silicone on all the cut edges to keep them from falling apart. Also make the edges look nicer. Some of my better modded shoes doesn't look modded at all. I am not sure those qualify to be post on this forum.

This pair of RSVP Jadyn has been walked through corn field with lot of mud several times. That is usually how I break in my shoes. I will try to post more modify shoes soon.

im sure most of us would like to see them, weather they look perfect or not, you still cut the shoe.
hope to see some of these pics soon.
