How/why tf do you guys actually wear lifts

First of all doesn't it massively screw up your walking gait and secondly having something unstable in your shoe like that just seems like its asking for a slipped ankle/to trip up.

Happy with my height but thinking of try maybe 2 inch ones to see if I notice any perceivable difference in day to day interactions.

It did for me, i weared 2 inch lifts for a year in hs wich got me to 6'2, they noticed the changes.

Imo yeah it does screw up your walking and sometimes your ankle trips.

So how does that compare to nike air max? Don't they all give around 1.5 inches aswell. Always preferred how they look and idc whats popular with teenagers/early 20s now I'm 28.

I only like air force 1 in plain white tbh.

You easily get used to them. It’s hard the first few days and you will struggle on stairs or uneven ground but eventually it feels completely natural.

I enjoy being 196 cm overall in my lifts. That extra height is the difference between being just another tall guy and a height mogger.

Your the only one being dramatic buddyboy. I'm just not interested in wearing lifts if they mean I walk around looking like a weirdo or im constantly at risk of a sprained ankle so obviously I wanted peoples experiences.

U clearly cared enough to post. Take a valium or smthing headcase.
