Of course, that won't help you cross the parking lot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-tights-surprise-slippery-doom#post-834900 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 19:42:46 +0000 Tina.b 834900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have narrow heels so I occasionally will add a heel grip. A ball of foot cushion might help too. Good luck, those shoes are beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-tights-surprise-slippery-doom#post-834881 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 19:32:16 +0000 rachylou 834881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those shoes are gorgeous!</p> <p>Yes, I have this problem occasionally. Some masking tape in your shoe might help. Or one of those little flower shaped pads for the ball of the foot - my only problem with these is that I can feel the squeeze. They're thin, but I can still feel how room they take up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-tights-surprise-slippery-doom#post-834807 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 18:41:47 +0000 lyn* 834807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also have a half-insole of gel to reduce slippage! </p> <p>Good luck with the TP; if that doesn't work, slap down a bandage into the toe box in the bottom for a temp fix! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-tights-surprise-slippery-doom#post-834795 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 18:31:29 +0000 Anonymous 834795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I get this problem a lot and it's often because the toe box is a little deep or wide for my foot. I solve it by adding a half insole in most of my shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-tights-surprise-slippery-doom#post-834736 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 17:45:22 +0000 Emily 834736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zapotee - done. You're my hero! I am going to go speed walk to lunch.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-tights-surprise-slippery-doom#post-834716 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 17:34:17 +0000 Anonymous 834716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahhhh... Yes, I know what you are talking about. Stuff some toilet paper on the tip of the shoe, that should help you for now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-tights-surprise-slippery-doom#post-834708 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 17:28:57 +0000 transition 834708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was afraid you fell in them, so I'm glad your doom wasn't that bad! I can't wear heels that high or most shoes without hosiery of some kind, but it doesn't sound fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-tights-surprise-slippery-doom#post-834706 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 17:26:33 +0000 Anonymous 834706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't tend to wear heels, so that particular problem I haven't really had, but I have noticed that some of my socks don't do well with certain shoes, and cause rubbing spots or they are too thick or thin or whatever. So I have boot socks and shoe socks, pretty much </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-tights-surprise-slippery-doom#post-834702 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 17:25:02 +0000 Emily 834702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was feeling pretty good about my outfit for today, which includes the DKNY block heels in #1. </p> <p>Pretty good, that is, until I had to walk from my car to work. As it turns out when I wear these shoes with slippery tights, my foot slides way to the front of the shoe as I walk, leaving me with the following options:</p> <p>- Hobble like an ungainly Faun<br /> - Saunter at a stately (tortoise-like) pace</p> <p>Goshdarnit. :&lt; I think the last time I wore these I had trouser socks underneath and I just took them off. I'm sticking a post it in these babies that says "No Hose!" </p> <p>Anyone else had this problem?</p> <p>ETA - removed doom from title as in retrospect it was a little dramatic, haha. I'm just annoyed that for the rest of the day I have to walk at the speed of fiftyone shipping. </p>
