Which louboutins are the most comfortable




















I have been a big fan of Louboutin pumps for a long time. No other brand rivals the shamelessly attention-demanding, sexy and envy inducing nature of these instantly recognisable, red-soled little pieces of art. They are truly electrifying and their appeal reaches across all genders, as demonstrated in the few occasions when total strangers men!

This has never happened with any other brand. What has always fascinated me about Louboutins is their ability to enhance and energise any outfit to make it just a bit more fabulous and edgy. And their ability to transform transcends far beyond that. Whenever I have on a pair of Louboutin pumps, I feel an instant boost of confidence, sassiness and positive energy, like being on a fashion IV drip.

Well… at least for as long as I can endure wearing them. My collection of Louboutins is fairly extensive albeit it revolves mainly around the Icons i. While from time to time I treat myself to one of the seasonal beauties, I tend to gravitate back towards the classics. Because of their effortless compatibility with both daytime and evening looks and minimal detailing which makes them very versatile.

As I often find myself advising others colleagues, friends on merits of Louboutin pumps I thought it might be helpful to write this review comparing two popular designs, the Simple Pump and the Pigalle , and share my experiences relating to them. I have selected these two models because in my view either should serve as a perfect introduction to the brand for anyone who is considering purchasing their first pair of Loubs but is also conscious of making a sound shoe investment.

Aesthetics How Durable are Louboutin Pumps? Good Investment? As a self-confessed Louboutinista, I have in my possession several pairs of Louboutin pumps and I always find them running true to size.

I wear size In the Simple Pump the inner sole measures 25cm and in Pigalle the sole length measured from the pointy toe end as far as I could push the measuring tape, anyway to the end of the inner sole is For anyone thinking of buying their first pair of Louboutin pumps, it is worth mentioning that the design of these shoes is quite narrow in the toe box area.

While this allows these gorgeous shoes to mould and adjust overtime to the shape of feet of their lucky owner, there is no denying that the feet and toes in particular may feel constricted at first. And they will ache, A LOT. This is particularly noticeable in pointed toe designs including Pigalle although the round toe models such as the Simple Pump are also affected by this unfortunate pattern, to an extent.

The good news is that as these fabulous shoes are worn, the tight fit eventually relaxes, and they become increasingly more wearable. From my personal experience, the fit of the Simple Pump by virtue of having a round toe box loosens quicker than Pigalle but even the latter will improve with time.

So overall, for anyone considering chucking their Louboutin pumps in a strop after the first very painful outing my advice is to be patient because they will stretch. I repeat, they will stretch!

There is high heel comfort and there is Louboutin pumps high heel comfort. Loubs are made to be beautiful and seductive but not necessarily comfortable. I explicitly remember a night out in my very first pair of Louboutins which culminated in such extreme aches that I had to walk home barefoot literally howling in pain.

The important thing is to learn to manage expectations and that entails always breaking them in prior to any big event as well as accepting that it will take a little while sometimes a long while before these shoes become comfortable. When comparing the level of comfort of Simple Pump versus Pigalle model, I have found the former is by far the better option for longer wears. After a few stretching sessions, I could easily wear Simple Pump the whole day in the office or on a long night out without any dramatic or torturous aftermath.

They are, by far, my favourite style among all Louboutin pumps because they are reasonably practical and highly wearable despite the 10 cm heel. As if that was not enough to rejoice over, the Simple Pump also comes in different heel heights i. For days when I need to be more mobile, the 7cm variant Simple Pump 70 is absolutely prefect because it allows enjoying the Louboutin sparkle without adding that extra pressure on feet.

Relaxed i. However, the pointy front always leaves my toes slightly tender after a few hours so by the end of the day I tend to opt for a change of shoes to go home in. Still, for 10cm elevation, a very slender pointed toe and the overall slimline construction they are not outrageously uncomfortable. Although not quite in the same league as the Sergio or Gianvito Rossis of this world which to me are the pinnacle of stiletto comfort, Pigalle can hold their own. Akin to the Simple Pump, Pigalle is also available in 8.

For those who dare, there is also the 12cm heel option Pigalle but for my own purposes these seem rather impractical. Your classic nude pumps deserve an upgrade. Favoured by royals and fashion editors alike, these nude heels are made of cream patent leather and instantly polish up even the plainest of outfits.
