I started with 8 inches boots, because I knew I didn't want to buy another pair soon. I get used to them pretty quickly and I definitely recommend starting with 8". Mines are shiny and sticky, but when it comes to floorwork I always put socks on them, so it's not an issue. I really don't wanna ruin them, because they are freakishly expensieve. For beginners I recommend buying slighty used ones, because you can get them cheaper (but don't buy ones you don't like-they're your shoes, you gotta love them) ❤️
Awesome job! I'm a 52 year old widow &I just got my pole! I have a collection of shoes, not as high, I'm good with it. I'm excited! I'm going to use this as my 💔❤️🩹 heart healing, emotional health & physical body exercise & therapy. I can't think of a better way. I have everything I need at my home. Now just to utilize it ❤❤❤. Learning how to find JOY Living & LOVING Life Again.🙏🏼❤️🩹❤️🥰
thank you so much 🖤 i just got 8inch patent open-toe boots from club hella heels for my first pair… i was a bit worried because so many people seem to think beginners should stick to lower heel heights but i just loved the look of 8 inches so much i couldn’t resist. they’re soooo much easier to walk and dance in than i expected!!! did my first class in them yesterday and no wobbles, no falls. i’m so glad i trusted your advice to just go for it!! 🌹
i recently got my first pair of heels. I have high arches, small feet (US womens size 6), and really WIDE feet. The heels I got are a closed boot, 7in, size 10, and let me say, with a ball of foot insole in those bad girls my feet don't slip forward at ALL. It's a really good shoe, and i went in-store to a specialty heel shop to try shoes on. I gotta say, when you have someone who pole dances themselves giving you advice on how the shoe should fit and feel (the person working there who was helping me try boots on), you end up with something perfect.
THANKS! My first pair of pleasers just arrived, originally I was going to choose a 6 inch sandal but after watching this video I changed it for the 8 inch shinny boot and I don't regret anything, thank you so much 💜
I've just bought a pair of 6 inch boots and honestly I'm happy with my decision as a beginner haha. I know you've said 7 inches to start off but I have a pair of 8 and it's WAY too unstable, so I think 6 feels better for a true beginner ESPECIALLY if you are someone who never wears heels and has no dance experience. But I wouldn't buy more than one 6 inch pair.
Yes. I would say 6 inch is SAFEST for beginners. Absolutely agree! I have 2 6-inch pairs because I particularly love them for floor work. Hah! Go figure
this is so helpful! my first pair of pole shoe was a patent 8-inch boots, helps so much with tricks and climbing! feels so sturdy when doing dance moves too!!!! After 4 months of dancing, now I'm getting heels in 8 inch clear straps. Would say that the heels are definitely less stable when dancing but it think its essential to train your strength and ankle using heels!! one good thing about heels is that they are much lighter, so it might help with pole tricks! 5 months into pole dancing now I buying another pair of white open toes 8-inch patent boots pleaser!!!
Ordered my first set of Pleasers because of this video. I went with 7 inch since I am used to wearing 5 inch for my regular shoes. I just wanted to highlight that I did not have the confidence to purchase these shoes without you! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 This video helped me make my selections and now I have 3 beautiful shoes to dance in that fit AMAZINGLY because of YOU! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Bought my first set of pleasers last week and I’m obsessed with them. They were 50% off. $45 can’t get me a new pair of vans so they were mine. This video was very helpful!
I bought my first pair of pleaser heels recently, and I have to say I never wear hight heels. I bought 2 pairs in my entire life and they were for special occasions so I only wore them like twice maybe, any they have an inch high heel probably. As I began my adventure with the more sensual side of pole dancing, I decided to buy my first pair of dancer heels. I got 7 inch closed faux leather boots. I usually wear size 6, 6.5 but I read the reviews and I sized up and got them in size 7, and they fit perfectly. I have no problems with my toes, they still give me alot of support. The only flaw with closed boots is the sweating, but its nothing a good wash can't solve 😁 thanks for the video 🤍🤍🤍
I literally out of the blue got myself those nude pleaser ones as my first shoes and I am now so happy that this was randomly the perfect desicion haha!! I’m so lucky... I will definitely use your channel to start off my pole journey 😍🥰💪🏻
This was a good starting point in my research but I wish there was anyone with pole dancing experience on TH-cam that was older and heavier. Even when I lost a ton of weight to where my thighs didn't touch anymore I had a body shape that can only be described as "female linebacker". As I've gotten older I've become more comfortable with my body and now that I'm about to hit 40 I finally have the confidence to try to learn this dance form
I went to try on some shoes at my pole studio. With a 6.5-7 street shoe size, I had to size all the way up to an 8 in Pleaser heels! They weren’t kidding that they run a tiiiiiiny bit small. Def try them on.
I wear 8 and a half , for me in sandals I go to an 8 since they don't feel as loose on my foot and the strap is a must for me , for boots I go to a size 9 and my feet feel so much more comfortable going up in size . I have red Pleaser thigh high boots , and yes even in a short length of time , especially these types of boots , are quite warm wearing them , but I have always loved my boots , I still have my first pair that I ever baught that are black from the year 2000 !!!
I am in between sizes 37,5 and had opportunity to try closed pleaser boots 37! And its perfect!! I was surprised cause I wear 38 in general. But what I realized is that when you dance ,or rollerblade ,or snowboard you want the shoe to be one with your foot ,fitting tight all around the foot. So I decided to buy my first closed boots ,but transparent pvc ones, what do you think about them? Please answer before I buy it😄❤️
I’m late to the party but this video was still GOLD! I’m gonna go to my local adult store today to try some on 😍 I really love the open toed boot or sandal. And patent to start for sure 7”! I love your beginner-friendly sandals you recommended. Thank you for the video!
Bought my first pair of heels at 6" cause I thought it'd be a good entry for heels (being a guy never worn heels). I just got my second pair for christmas which at 8" and my old heels look like a joke / so short!!! You were so right about the height!
This is so helpful!!!! I follow you on Instagram and had no idea you you had a TH-cam channel, my life is complete. You're an amazing dancer and give great advice! Thank you so much for your thoughts and opinions!!

Hi! I choose the 7 inches sandals: shiny black with glitters on the platform and heel. Thank you for your video, I picked the 8 because I'm 8 1/2. We will see if it OK! Soooo exited to received them!
Patent, black, starting with size 7! I think I need to ease into the sizing. I don’t like high heels in general, I am more of a 6 inch is it for me and it has to be needed type girl so….I’m comfortable in 4-5 inch heels really. So, I think 7 inch is where I should start. I am 5’2 short thick legs and I think that will be good for me. We have a new wood floor at the studio so I went with patent. Loved the video! Thanks.
How do you feel about clear heels? I have fake wooden textured vinyl floor in my apartment. I want to get a material that will last. Thank you for the knowledge!
That's my problem. I'm in between 11 and a 12. Yes I'm a male that wears pleasers and pole dances. Me personally, I love the boots, especially open toe. I wish pleaser made half sizes.
Hi Courtney, I also wish they had half sizes -____- it's been quite annoying having to size up or down depending on the model. I agree, open toe boots are THE BEST
I started with a 7 inch suede flexible criss-cross stripe one (Adore 769), and it felt too short very quickly. My second pair is an 8 inch Flamingo-808 with see trough straps. Love both, but for dancing won’t go under 8 inches again. I think. 😄 Totally agree with you in everything. Floorwork is better with a 7 inch. Thank you for the great video!
Thanks for all of your comments and involvement. I sure hope to hear from you over at B-SIDE. www.patreon.com/poleculture Again, I apologize for the confusion with ChromeClub. I'm no longer with them moving forward!
As for the height, I think your feet size also matters. For pole dancers with smaller feet like size 5 and no heels experience, maybe it's not a bad idea to consider 6 inch or 7 inch for the first pair. Small feet = short insole = small bottom
For someone with bigger feet, the platform may be a bit bigger than that of a smaller size, but there is no advantage to that, because the platform size is relative to your own foot, non someone else's. 😄 Your math isn't right.
Thank you for being helpful 🤍 I just ordered clear flamingo 808… and my pole is on the way too… I am so excited! I’m a 6.5 too and I got a 7 bcs I figured they would be too snug even after stretching so we shall see how this goes..
I am getting my first pair for mother's day and I found this video so helpful. I have been leaning towards black finishes, however, as a beginner and after watching this video, I'd like to start with clear shoes for the scuffing and beating I know they will take. I practice at home on carpet, so I will get a patent finish (absolutely love the sexiness of the gloss look ^_^) and I'll get a faux material for when going to a studio. You've got my follow. I look forward to future videos and maybe even meeting you. Be well!
Might I add it’s a lot easier to walk in thicker platform heals when you have long legs. As a personal tip. I have long legs and it’s harder to walk in smaller heals. 8in is a lot easier for me to walk in vs 6 or 7
That’s interesting. I actually feel more stable and safe walking in the 6 inches. However I prefer dancing the 8 inches because of my ability to access parts of the heels better when I’m dancing and transitioning through movement on the pole 🤔
This is such a good tip the funny thing is I've been pole dancing for a yr. my first stripper heels were the 9 inches lol i thought they were one size which is crazy because I got mine at Fascinations i wear a size 11 they are Pleasers but quite comfortable they're matte leather open toed sandals with the corset lace up with ankle support & I'm 5'7" no problem climbing but since I am tall I'm going to switch to 7, 8 inches Thank U for the tips
🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄 Thank you for sharing this helpful information, based on your experience. I am new with discovering pole dancing for fitness and pole dance entertainment.
I’m a 7.5 U.K. and I just bought close boots 7 inches. I have been doing pole fitness for a a couple of months now (I use to do it back in 2019, but Covid happened so I’m a beginner beginner.) We have been offered of lessons with shoes so I just went to buy them. But I know damn well I can’t do 8 and 9 so I just went for 7 inchs in a size 9 U.K. with a leather finish.
Really nice video! I wish I had watched something like this one year ago when I was confused about picking a 6" or 7" (but I ended up picking the 7" anyway - those heels are great on photo shoots 😛😛).
im probably going start off with a boot for the ankle support size 8 because im a 7.5 and have wide feet (im actually like a 7 wide but usually buy 7.5 to compinsate so for these im going to go up a whole size, to a 8) and then probably either clear boot with the sticky surface or a matte leather havent decided yet, I like both. Thankyou for the info! you did a great job! :)
I have learn Pole dance for 4 months and now I am thinking about try exotic, I am looking for shoes but I don’t understand 1 thing, there are plenty of brand which are much cheaper than pleaser but why everyone is buying only pleaser?
if its plastic sandals go half size up bc the plastic will hurt! you can blow dry the plastic to create room at a Low temperature blow dryer. going to try boots now. im a 6.5 btw so in plastic pump I started wearing a 7
I think I'm going for a sandal. I haven't decided on the material yet, but I saw some with really cute cutouts in the platform that I'm sortof in love with. There was another pair with a scalloped edge that I'm head over heels (hah) in love with, but they're on clearance, so may be gone by the time I actually pick up a pair. This was soooo informative! Thank you!
Thank you! I am 6.5 and I took your advice getting a pair of open-toe 7 inch boots in size 7, and Sandles with ankle straps in size 6. They all fit perfectly!! I literally mean it- puuuurfectlly!!! ❤️ I have a chubby feet with high arch, but my heel is small/narrow. I tried 7 size fully closed boots and feel a lot of space at the back-- however the front is tight enough that I don’t want to go one size down. I shall try different brands and see if there’s anything else I can do...
Question, at 12:44 you mention your recommendation based on the fact that when you started, you noticed that other girls had heels that looked better. Besides the natural "I want to look cool like that" feeling that we all get when we try something new, is there a good reason for a beginner to go for the 8"??? Another way to put it, is there a good reason for someone getting a 7" as a starter? Does the 7" heals make it more beginner friendly?
Daniel Marco an 8 inch heel is less stable than a 7.... as I say in the video, you can do 8 inches as a beginner, but then I’d recommend easing into it by using boots at 8 inches rather than a Sandle at first. This is because the boots provide a sense of stability that the sandals don’t. They wrap around your ankles and help you feel more locked in. There are no rules here, I’m simply encouraging girls to try 7 inches instead of 5 or 6, because you can get used to the height quickly and you’ll be glad you started at 7 instead of what everyone recommends (5 or 6inches). I know there’s a fear of height out there, but go for at least 7 inches to start. 8 inches for a beginner is ambitious but also doable.
This video was informative ! I’m getting the pleaser adore 787 with a 7 inch heel & they have a 2/3/4 platform . These are My first ! I’ve some with a 10 inch heel . Which is a foot .
@@PoleCulture sure thing ! As with any high heels it’s best to wear them around the house first before you actually wear them outside the house ect or doing pole dancing . You don’t want to end up with a twisted ankle ect . Pleaser has some great heels . Some I wouldn’t recommend wearing outside due to a potential risk fall especially those with a 10 inch + heel ! Not just that you don’t want to draw unwanted attention . Heels can be fun to wear ! First & formost you want to make sure the pair your buying is going to fit you properly . That’s key to buying any shoe .here’s a tip if your buying on line .As we all know you can’t try them on it’s best to size up just to be on the safe side . Know your shoe size prior to buying . Pleaser does have a sizing chart . Sizes can vary . The best thing to do is go to a local store that Carry,s that brand & some may not carry the full line . But you could go & get fitted . That would give you a idea on what size to get . Some do fittings . Me I’m starting out with a 7 inch heel first . I know it’s a pretty darn tall one to start out with . I liked the styling of that shoe .
Hi ! Thanks for this video, I have narrow feet with flat arches as well as overpronation. What do you recommend I start with? Can I use flatform heels/boots ?
I have slight over probation.. hmm but I’m not expert on this. Perhaps seek medical advice if you’re going to be wearing extra high heels. Do you wear heels to go out regularly? Is it any problem? Hmm 🤔
Love your vids! Thanks for all the great info. As a beginner focusing on floorwork, I will probably go 7" faux leather. Just not sure if open-toed boot or sandal 🤔
dude thank you for giving such a thorough review video! I do have a Q: my feet tend to get really sweaty when I work out and I'm wondering if you recommend any special sox for the boots when you pole?
I bought my 1st pair and really wanted som closed two boots. I'm 6.5 and thought it would be best to get the 7 because boots tend to be tighter on me and I knew I'd be gutted if they starred to hurt over time.. anyway the size 7 fits great ! It's perfect not too big anywhere it's nicely snug so glad I got the 7
Thank you for this video ! I want to get into pole dance and I've been researching (especially on Reddit which I found very helpful). This video is great. I've always liked the boots more so as my first pair I'm gonna get 8 inches black patent boots. I will definitely subscribe to your channel !
Hey just want to say this helped me alot, I still have a while before I start pole dancing since im 15 and plan on moving out when 18 to start pole dancing since my parents wont allow it, so I know when I get those shoes what size to take at the moment I have been for a year now a size 5 but my feet are like small so yeah! Thanks alot!
My first pair were the 7in strap Sandals, I moved to 8in pretty quickly. As for being in 1/2 sizes, I size up for Sandals and close toed boots, size down for open toe boots. I have long this feet😅
This video is helpful AF! I’m a somewhat intermediate dancer and I do mostly floorwork. I already own several pairs of 8” clear sandals and I’m super comfortable in them but am looking to upgrade to 9” and want to switch up my look and go for patent; but I’ve been told patent will pinch if you have wide feet, but your toes would hang over if you have narrow feet (because patent doesn’t hold your feet back like clear does). Would love to know what you think, thanks again for making this video!
I size up for boots these days (I'm in between a 6 and a 7 so it's a paint in my butt). I really enjoy my patent shoes. I have small and narrow feet and ankles. I have yet to se CLEAR shoes with clear straps!!! I prefer the aesthetic of the colored straps so I couldn't tell you much here as far as comparison goes.... hmm.... My recommendation is to simply TRY your first patent pair :) You really don't know until you try these different shoes out to see what you like. I love the different finishes of the shoes for different dance styles.. for example... the patent heels will adhere to the pole and will make doing tricks on the pole easier... but they're a pain in the butt with certain floor types and you'll hate how stuck you get.... this is where I LOVE faux suede shoes!! Slide so much more.... but.... they stuck for pole climbing .... haha so it depends on your dance style that day, mood, clothes, etc..... get your first patent pair and try things out. I love my nude patent sandals and my white patent boots!!!
@@PoleCulture thank you so much for replying! Patent white boots are also on my wish list, there’s something about that shiny pleather look that just elevates the entire pole outfit. Subbed
I got the open-toed clear 5" sandal, as I prefer the lower look (yes I know, I'm the "weird" one here, lol). Will the lack of the flat toe be a problem for toe pivots? Wondering if I should return them.
@@PoleCulture good to know, thank you! I bought them directly through Pleaser (I hate supporting Amazon with their unethical practices) but with Pleasers, I’d have to pay the shipping fee twice ($30x2=$60 ouch!) so glad that you’re saying to keep them, lol. :)
I have about three shoe sizes. My main is a 7 1/2, but sometimes I have to go up to an 8 or down to a 7 for some shoes. It also depends on the brand of the shoe.
I’m glad I watched your vid before jumping to buy my first pair of Pleasers. Since I’m a beginner I think ima go for the 7” Treasure 708 in size 6 (I’m normally a 6 1/2) let’s see how it goes. Xo
I've been a dancer for 15 years... I don't wear anything over 7.5 inches... reason isn't because of experience.. its due to it effects your dancing with pointing your toe... I'm normally a size 7 I always wore a Size 7 but 3 years ago pleaser changed there clear strap shoes.. so now I wear a 8 also I have wide feet... I point my toes so hard I have toe prints lol so it makes a lip...lol... I train girls also and I start girls in a 7 inch heel.. reason because the 6 inch heel are hard to walk in... Platform is too small...
Yea I only like the 6 inch for contemporary floorwork or something where I want to be quick with the floor moves. Most of the time I prefer a taller heel. Thanks for stopping by Sabrina. Happy to connect.
I find US sizes interesting. I live in sweden and what you call inbetween sizes are just sizes here. I'm a 7.5 us I think, but that is 38 in euro sizes. Not sure why that is, but it does make things easier
patent 7'' sandals is the only shoe i found in my size that isn't too expensive, but they're from the norwegian equivalent of craigslist or depop so i'll have to go and check the size and quality whenever i travel through the country i'd love a patent 8'' open toe boot when i get more comfy (and more money) though ^^ they look so badass
Yea save up. I know shoes can get a little pricey. Save up for a pair that goes with most of your training wear/outfits and that will be a pair you LOVE.
Just bought a patent 8" boot as my first heel and I loved it (it was the holographic green-purple). I'm a size 8 and it was just right even with thick socks. Now I wanna get a nude faux-suede boot for floorwork but Im scare about getting it dirty so easily 😅 and also the black faux leather sandal who has a skull in the platform. But at the same time I want something really catchy and colourful 😅
Pleaser shoes for me are complicated because my feet are super small, so even size 5 becomes loose on me. I usually put something under my foot to overcome the situation, but it's just so annoying regardless. I wish Pleaser or any other brand could make smaller sizes :( Nice tips anyway, your channel is awesome :)
Probably the lowest possible because I'm tall and I've never worn high heels 😂 But I can't decide between sandals and boots. Sandals are cheaper but my feet (and hands) get so ridiculously sweaty I'm afraid my feet will slip from them and I'll twist my ankle. Any recommendations? ☺️
Thank you for Sharing, I was a pole dancer for 2 years and danced till I was 5 months pregnant with my son. He is now 2 years old and i have a 4 month old. Just got a pole for home and wow am I out of shape. Lol thank you sharing!!
I imagine if you have a bigger foot and wider foot then yes, they can stretch a bit (as most shoes stretch after you begin to wear them and they take the form of your foot). I haven’t experienced very notable stretching though. I hope this helps
So I have small but wide feet. I range between a 6 to a 6.5 in regular shoes, but I speculate that if my feet weren't wide I'd actually be more like a 5.5. I bought a 7 in the closed-toe pleaser boots and I can't tell if they are too big or not. My foot slides forward (I also have a high arch) and there is maybe a quarter inch gap behind my ankle. Is this normal? Should your boots feel snug or should there be some room? I'm afraid that as they stretch they will become too big, but I don't want to return them for a 6 just for the 6 to be too tight.
Jules from now on, order both sizes you're in between so that you can try them on for 15 min or so and see how you feel. I size up for boots but size down for sandals .... Really it depends the fit you also prefer... some people enjoy a very tight fit... I do not because I also have high arches and when my feet slide forward (like you), I do not enjoy my toes on the ground lol..... So always get both sizes and see what you like best... You won't know until you try both!
Because the heels feel sexy and I love the stilettos. Sneakers are fun too! Socks are fun too and have their own glide-effect advantage to play with. I recommend experimenting with all sorts of shoes, socks, and bare feet.
Thanks for your video, this is so helpful. I am in between 35 to 36, and I tried both size 5 & 6 pleasers. I think size 5 is a little bit tight to me(My toes always on the ground when i do floor work. I hurt my toes sometime so I prefer to wear socks. But socks make size5 very tight🥲), but I am more confident to dance with size 5 than size 6. I can’t stand up stable and quick with size 6… maybe I should try another brand☹️
So in those patent sandals, my toes come out and also cut into the toes with the open toes. Is that supposed to be like that? I think i slide down too. Is that something i have to accept? I put in soles and silicon stickers etc. Do i need to size up or down? In boots i tried size 12 my toes get crushed i fear if i go open toe boots i will also have the same issue. I am a bit lost 😂
Loved the video! I'm torn cause I want the black flamingos in faux suede but if they go bad that easily Idk anymore😭 or I'll just sew some shoe protectors 🤓
All shoes " go bad" fast.... especially if you put good use to them. Don't be quick to hate this as this is a lovely process and well-used shoes have their interesting aesthetic too :P
@@PoleCulture I bet ! They'll become like those childhood plushtoys loved a little too much all messed up and adorable haha. But yeah as long as they work in action that's what matters🤭

thank you so much 🖤 i just got 8inch patent open-toe boots from club hella heels for my first pair… i was a bit worried because so many people seem to think beginners should stick to lower heel heights but i just loved the look of 8 inches so much i couldn’t resist. they’re soooo much easier to walk and dance in than i expected!!! did my first class in them yesterday and no wobbles, no falls. i’m so glad i trusted your advice to just go for it!! 🌹
YAY
i recently got my first pair of heels. I have high arches, small feet (US womens size 6), and really WIDE feet.
The heels I got are a closed boot, 7in, size 10, and let me say, with a ball of foot insole in those bad girls my feet don't slip forward at ALL. It's a really good shoe, and i went in-store to a specialty heel shop to try shoes on. I gotta say, when you have someone who pole dances themselves giving you advice on how the shoe should fit and feel (the person working there who was helping me try boots on), you end up with something perfect.
yep.. have to try em on
THANKS! My first pair of pleasers just arrived, originally I was going to choose a 6 inch sandal but after watching this video I changed it for the 8 inch shinny boot and I don't regret anything, thank you so much 💜
Good choice! Happy to help
@@PoleCulture i like your heels
did you get your normal size?
I've just bought a pair of 6 inch boots and honestly I'm happy with my decision as a beginner haha. I know you've said 7 inches to start off but I have a pair of 8 and it's WAY too unstable, so I think 6 feels better for a true beginner ESPECIALLY if you are someone who never wears heels and has no dance experience.
But I wouldn't buy more than one 6 inch pair.
Yes. I would say 6 inch is SAFEST for beginners. Absolutely agree! I have 2 6-inch pairs because I particularly love them for floor work. Hah! Go figure
this is so helpful! my first pair of pole shoe was a patent 8-inch boots, helps so much with tricks and climbing! feels so sturdy when doing dance moves too!!!! After 4 months of dancing, now I'm getting heels in 8 inch clear straps. Would say that the heels are definitely less stable when dancing but it think its essential to train your strength and ankle using heels!! one good thing about heels is that they are much lighter, so it might help with pole tricks! 5 months into pole dancing now I buying another pair of white open toes 8-inch patent boots pleaser!!!
Ah yes, so true here. Thanks for sharing
Ordered my first set of Pleasers because of this video. I went with 7 inch since I am used to wearing 5 inch for my regular shoes. I just wanted to highlight that I did not have the confidence to purchase these shoes without you! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 This video helped me make my selections and now I have 3 beautiful shoes to dance in that fit AMAZINGLY because of YOU!

how's it going now
I bought my first pair of pleaser heels recently, and I have to say I never wear hight heels. I bought 2 pairs in my entire life and they were for special occasions so I only wore them like twice maybe, any they have an inch high heel probably. As I began my adventure with the more sensual side of pole dancing, I decided to buy my first pair of dancer heels. I got 7 inch closed faux leather boots. I usually wear size 6, 6.5 but I read the reviews and I sized up and got them in size 7, and they fit perfectly. I have no problems with my toes, they still give me alot of support. The only flaw with closed boots is the sweating, but its nothing a good wash can't solve 😁 thanks for the video 🤍🤍🤍
Let me tell you, you'll be sweating in the open-toe boots too LOLOLOL :) thanks for coming by. Keep in touch.
I literally out of the blue got myself those nude pleaser ones as my first shoes and I am now so happy that this was randomly the perfect desicion haha!! I’m so lucky... I will definitely use your channel to start off my pole journey 😍🥰💪🏻
Yes! Check out my recent announcement if you're interested in a spelled out Pole + Flexibility course for Exotic beginners :)
TH-cam needs more than just a like button! This video is awesome. Helps me appreciate how much goes into accessories!
MMAde For Fighting thank you for this feedback
@@PoleCulture will u make a regular heel and stripper heel collection tryon?
@@wolfpacgaming5353 It would be a good idea. I'll keep it mind for an upcoming video. Thanks :)
This was a good starting point in my research but I wish there was anyone with pole dancing experience on TH-cam that was older and heavier. Even when I lost a ton of weight to where my thighs didn't touch anymore I had a body shape that can only be described as "female linebacker". As I've gotten older I've become more comfortable with my body and now that I'm about to hit 40 I finally have the confidence to try to learn this dance form
You may love some grounded flows around the pole that are not as upper body taxing, however, you will still need some engagement up top of course.
I went to try on some shoes at my pole studio. With a 6.5-7 street shoe size, I had to size all the way up to an 8 in Pleaser heels! They weren’t kidding that they run a tiiiiiiny bit small. Def try them on.
yep i agree
I wear 8 and a half , for me in sandals I go to an 8 since they don't feel as loose on my foot and the strap is a must for me , for boots I go to a size 9 and my feet feel so much more comfortable going up in size . I have red Pleaser thigh high boots , and yes even in a short length of time , especially these types of boots , are quite warm wearing them , but I have always loved my boots , I still have my first pair that I ever baught that are black from the year 2000 !!!
Wowwww that's 20 years ago girl lol
Already loving this channel I'm staring at my new sandals getting used to the tightness...locked into the plastic now tho 😊
I am in between sizes 37,5 and had opportunity to try closed pleaser boots 37! And its perfect!! I was surprised cause I wear 38 in general. But what I realized is that when you dance ,or rollerblade ,or snowboard you want the shoe to be one with your foot ,fitting tight all around the foot.
So I decided to buy my first closed boots ,but transparent pvc ones, what do you think about them?
Please answer before I buy it😄❤️
I’m late to the party but this video was still GOLD! I’m gonna go to my local adult store today to try some on 😍
I really love the open toed boot or sandal. And patent to start for sure 7”! I love your beginner-friendly sandals you recommended. Thank you for the video!
This was so helpful for me. I'm a size 6 1/2 with high arches, and my feet and ankles are also very skinny. Thank you so much!!
Brand new baby dancer here, I think I'll go for the 8 inch patent boots with a 8 inch patent sandal with red snake print 💜
spicy
Bought my first pair of heels at 6" cause I thought it'd be a good entry for heels (being a guy never worn heels). I just got my second pair for christmas which at 8" and my old heels look like a joke / so short!!! You were so right about the height!
hahaha......... I told youuuuuuuuuu *hugs and kisses* thanks for stopping by.
@@PoleCulture do you have any experience with shoes that have glitter on the box..? Recommendations on whether they’re worth it or not

Hi! I choose the 7 inches sandals: shiny black with glitters on the platform and heel.
Thank you for your video, I picked the 8 because I'm 8 1/2. We will see if it OK! Soooo exited to received them!
Yay, let me know how it goes!
Patent, black, starting with size 7! I think I need to ease into the sizing. I don’t like high heels in general, I am more of a 6 inch is it for me and it has to be needed type girl so….I’m comfortable in 4-5 inch heels really. So, I think 7 inch is where I should start. I am 5’2 short thick legs and I think that will be good for me. We have a new wood floor at the studio so I went with patent. Loved the video! Thanks.
How do you feel about clear heels? I have fake wooden textured vinyl floor in my apartment. I want to get a material that will last. Thank you for the knowledge!
That's my problem. I'm in between 11 and a 12. Yes I'm a male that wears pleasers and pole dances. Me personally, I love the boots, especially open toe. I wish pleaser made half sizes.
Hi Courtney, I also wish they had half sizes -____- it's been quite annoying having to size up or down depending on the model. I agree, open toe boots are THE BEST
@@PoleCulture I currently have the Pleaser Xtreme873 and the white Adore boots open toe 1021.
I started with a 7 inch suede flexible criss-cross stripe one (Adore 769), and it felt too short very quickly. My second pair is an 8 inch Flamingo-808 with see trough straps. Love both, but for dancing won’t go under 8 inches again. I think. 😄 Totally agree with you in everything. Floorwork is better with a 7 inch. Thank you for the great video!
Thanks for all of your comments and involvement. I sure hope to hear from you over at B-SIDE. www.patreon.com/poleculture
Again, I apologize for the confusion with ChromeClub. I'm no longer with them moving forward!
As for the height, I think your feet size also matters. For pole dancers with smaller feet like size 5 and no heels experience, maybe it's not a bad idea to consider 6 inch or 7 inch for the first pair. Small feet = short insole = small bottom
So many factors to consider. 6 is always the most beginner friendly yes. I agree with you.
For someone with bigger feet, the platform may be a bit bigger than that of a smaller size, but there is no advantage to that, because the platform size is relative to your own foot, non someone else's. 😄 Your math isn't right.
I love these shoes.
shoessssss
Thank you for being helpful 🤍 I just ordered clear flamingo 808… and my pole is on the way too… I am so excited! I’m a 6.5 too and I got a 7 bcs I figured they would be too snug even after stretching so we shall see how this goes..
Hope you enjoy it! Let's gooooo
I am getting my first pair for mother's day and I found this video so helpful. I have been leaning towards black finishes, however, as a beginner and after watching this video, I'd like to start with clear shoes for the scuffing and beating I know they will take. I practice at home on carpet, so I will get a patent finish (absolutely love the sexiness of the gloss look ^_^) and I'll get a faux material for when going to a studio. You've got my follow. I look forward to future videos and maybe even meeting you. Be well!
Happy to connect on here. Thanks for such a sweet comment.
This video was so helpful! Thank you for sharing! As a beginner I think I'll start off with the open toe boots. 😊
I love and prefer open toe. Hah!
Might I add it’s a lot easier to walk in thicker platform heals when you have long legs. As a personal tip. I have long legs and it’s harder to walk in smaller heals. 8in is a lot easier for me to walk in vs 6 or 7
That’s interesting. I actually feel more stable and safe walking in the 6 inches. However I prefer dancing the 8 inches because of my ability to access parts of the heels better when I’m dancing and transitioning through movement on the pole 🤔
This is such a good tip the funny thing is I've been pole dancing for a yr. my first stripper heels were the 9 inches lol i thought they were one size which is crazy because I got mine at Fascinations i wear a size 11 they are Pleasers but quite comfortable they're matte leather open toed sandals with the corset lace up with ankle support & I'm 5'7" no problem climbing but since I am tall I'm going to switch to 7, 8 inches Thank U for the tips
Let me know how it goes!!!
I’m so happy I found your page . Nice , different perspective 💘💘💘💋💋 keep up the video constancy 👌🏽
Why thank you

After working at the club for a while I know I need to size you and a shoe really makes a difference while dancing
Thanks for dropping your insight :)
Thank you for this information! Very helpful for newbies.
you're welcome. thanks for the feedback
I’m a 7.5 U.K. and I just bought close boots 7 inches. I have been doing pole fitness for a a couple of months now (I use to do it back in 2019, but Covid happened so I’m a beginner beginner.) We have been offered of lessons with shoes so I just went to buy them. But I know damn well I can’t do 8 and 9 so I just went for 7 inchs in a size 9 U.K. with a leather finish.
Really nice video! I wish I had watched something like this one year ago when I was confused about picking a 6" or 7" (but I ended up picking the 7" anyway - those heels are great on photo shoots 😛😛).
so are 8s and 9s ;)
im probably going start off with a boot for the ankle support size 8 because im a 7.5 and have wide feet (im actually like a 7 wide but usually buy 7.5 to compinsate so for these im going to go up a whole size, to a 8) and then probably either clear boot with the sticky surface or a matte leather havent decided yet, I like both. Thankyou for the info! you did a great job! :)
Good luck! Let me know how it goes
I have learn Pole dance for 4 months and now I am thinking about try exotic, I am looking for shoes but I don’t understand 1 thing, there are plenty of brand which are much cheaper than pleaser but why everyone is buying only pleaser?
Super useful info cant wait for my first pair
how are they
My club says only over one inch to start with im like hell no I wanna look just as good this was so helpful thank you
lol
Thanks all of your videos are very helpful , I have quite a collection , they are addicting 😄
Glad you like them! Thanks Cynthia
if its plastic sandals go half size up bc the plastic will hurt! you can blow dry the plastic to create room at a Low temperature blow dryer. going to try boots now. im a 6.5 btw so in plastic pump I started wearing a 7
But for me, the 7s are too loose and not tight enough. I have to size down for sandals.......lol small feet
I think I'm going for a sandal. I haven't decided on the material yet, but I saw some with really cute cutouts in the platform that I'm sortof in love with. There was another pair with a scalloped edge that I'm head over heels (hah) in love with, but they're on clearance, so may be gone by the time I actually pick up a pair. This was soooo informative! Thank you!
You're very welcome. Thanks for this lovely comment
Thank you! I am 6.5 and I took your advice getting a pair of open-toe 7 inch boots in size 7, and Sandles with ankle straps in size 6. They all fit perfectly!! I literally mean it- puuuurfectlly!!! ❤️ I have a chubby feet with high arch, but my heel is small/narrow. I tried 7 size fully closed boots and feel a lot of space at the back-- however the front is tight enough that I don’t want to go one size down. I shall try different brands and see if there’s anything else I can do...
Good luck. I know it's not easy. Thanks for the comment Ella
Me wanting to go from nothing to 8 inches 😂
I will go for boots tho :) thanks for this video. Very helpful
You can do it!
Love this video!👠👠👠👠👠👑Thank you for the great advice 😀
You are so welcome! Check us out on BSIDE! www.patreon.com/poleculture
Fantastic video! I still can't choose between boots and sandals, but at least I know I'm on the right path!
Well, try one first for a while and later try to get the other option so you get a taste of both worlds.
Question, at 12:44 you mention your recommendation based on the fact that when you started, you noticed that other girls had heels that looked better. Besides the natural "I want to look cool like that" feeling that we all get when we try something new, is there a good reason for a beginner to go for the 8"??? Another way to put it, is there a good reason for someone getting a 7" as a starter? Does the 7" heals make it more beginner friendly?
Daniel Marco an 8 inch heel is less stable than a 7.... as I say in the video, you can do 8 inches as a beginner, but then I’d recommend easing into it by using boots at 8 inches rather than a Sandle at first. This is because the boots provide a sense of stability that the sandals don’t. They wrap around your ankles and help you feel more locked in. There are no rules here, I’m simply encouraging girls to try 7 inches instead of 5 or 6, because you can get used to the height quickly and you’ll be glad you started at 7 instead of what everyone recommends (5 or 6inches). I know there’s a fear of height out there, but go for at least 7 inches to start. 8 inches for a beginner is ambitious but also doable.
@@PoleCulture Awesome! Thanks for clarifying!
Will the shiny heels still stick to the floor for floor work even if you wear protectors ?
This video was informative ! I’m getting the pleaser adore 787 with a 7 inch heel & they have a 2/3/4 platform . These are My first ! I’ve some with a 10 inch heel . Which is a foot .
7 inch. Solid choice. Let us know how it goes
@@PoleCulture sure thing ! As with any high heels it’s best to wear them around the house first before you actually wear them outside the house ect or doing pole dancing . You don’t want to end up with a twisted ankle ect . Pleaser has some great heels . Some I wouldn’t recommend wearing outside due to a potential risk fall especially those with a 10 inch + heel ! Not just that you don’t want to draw unwanted attention . Heels can be fun to wear ! First & formost you want to make sure the pair your buying is going to fit you properly . That’s key to buying any shoe .here’s a tip if your buying on line .As we all know you can’t try them on it’s best to size up just to be on the safe side . Know your shoe size prior to buying . Pleaser does have a sizing chart . Sizes can vary . The best thing to do is go to a local store that Carry,s that brand & some may not carry the full line . But you could go & get fitted . That would give you a idea on what size to get . Some do fittings . Me I’m starting out with a 7 inch heel first . I know it’s a pretty darn tall one to start out with . I liked the styling of that shoe .
@@PoleCulture I did get My new pleaser adore 787 ! I have wore them around the house to get use to them ! I have to admit they are high !
My pole instructor told me I was finally ready for 8 in and I’m terrified I don’t know what to expect😂😂
How'd it goooo?
@@PoleCulture it went amazing I love my new heels there definitely ankle weights though😂😂
@Adriana Valenzuela haha I know the feeling. Make sure you do your hip strengthening and ankle strengthening. You will get used to it over time.
Hi ! Thanks for this video, I have narrow feet with flat arches as well as overpronation. What do you recommend I start with? Can I use flatform heels/boots ?
I have slight over probation.. hmm but I’m not expert on this. Perhaps seek medical advice if you’re going to be wearing extra high heels. Do you wear heels to go out regularly? Is it any problem? Hmm 🤔
Sooo helpful this video lol. I have experience pole dancing but I haven’t exotic yet.
So, I decided to buy 6, 7inches Sandal 🖤 thank you
It will change your life lol
i just got my first pair recently, white patent leather 7 inch pleasers close toe boots. I love them so far!
Boots are super cute. I love a nice solid patent pair. Trick-friendly!!
Love your vids! Thanks for all the great info. As a beginner focusing on floorwork, I will probably go 7" faux leather. Just not sure if open-toed boot or sandal 🤔
let me know what you decide to try and how it goes!
What did you get?
Thank you; this is very helpful!!! I have to get my pole first, lol, but I do plan to go with the patent strap 7".
Good choice!
dude thank you for giving such a thorough review video!
I do have a Q: my feet tend to get really sweaty when I work out and I'm wondering if you recommend any special sox for the boots when you pole?
Truth is, when I wear the boots, I sweat a lot through my feet too!!! I don’t think there is a way around this. I wear thick socks too 😂
I was also wondering the same thing. How would you wear socks with an open toe boot? Is better to wear the boots bare feet or with socks?
I've been searching for a video like this for a while for tysm!! :D
Let me know if you have any questions, here to help
Thx, i really appreciate it. Im trying to start dancing and need all the help i can get, lol. Happy New Years!
I bought my 1st pair and really wanted som closed two boots. I'm 6.5 and thought it would be best to get the 7 because boots tend to be tighter on me and I knew I'd be gutted if they starred to hurt over time.. anyway the size 7 fits great ! It's perfect not too big anywhere it's nicely snug so glad I got the 7
Thank you for this video ! I want to get into pole dance and I've been researching (especially on Reddit which I found very helpful). This video is great. I've always liked the boots more so as my first pair I'm gonna get 8 inches black patent boots. I will definitely subscribe to your channel !
Black patent is always a SOLID choice :)
Thanks for the kind feedback. Happy to meet you on here :)
Hey just want to say this helped me alot, I still have a while before I start pole dancing since im 15 and plan on moving out when 18 to start pole dancing since my parents wont allow it, so I know when I get those shoes what size to take at the moment I have been for a year now a size 5 but my feet are like small so yeah! Thanks alot!
My first pair were the 7in strap Sandals, I moved to 8in pretty quickly. As for being in 1/2 sizes, I size up for Sandals and close toed boots, size down for open toe boots. I have long this feet😅
This video is helpful AF!
I’m a somewhat intermediate dancer and I do mostly floorwork. I already own several pairs of 8” clear sandals and I’m super comfortable in them but am looking to upgrade to 9” and want to switch up my look and go for patent; but I’ve been told patent will pinch if you have wide feet, but your toes would hang over if you have narrow feet (because patent doesn’t hold your feet back like clear does).
Would love to know what you think, thanks again for making this video!
I size up for boots these days (I'm in between a 6 and a 7 so it's a paint in my butt). I really enjoy my patent shoes. I have small and narrow feet and ankles. I have yet to se CLEAR shoes with clear straps!!! I prefer the aesthetic of the colored straps so I couldn't tell you much here as far as comparison goes.... hmm....
My recommendation is to simply TRY your first patent pair :)
You really don't know until you try these different shoes out to see what you like. I love the different finishes of the shoes for different dance styles.. for example... the patent heels will adhere to the pole and will make doing tricks on the pole easier... but they're a pain in the butt with certain floor types and you'll hate how stuck you get.... this is where I LOVE faux suede shoes!! Slide so much more.... but.... they stuck for pole climbing .... haha so it depends on your dance style that day, mood, clothes, etc..... get your first patent pair and try things out. I love my nude patent sandals and my white patent boots!!!
@@PoleCulture thank you so much for replying! Patent white boots are also on my wish list, there’s something about that shiny pleather look that just elevates the entire pole outfit. Subbed
@@vanillaricebabie White is a great choice.... it pairs up with just about anything and I love how girly it feels haha
I got the open-toed clear 5" sandal, as I prefer the lower look (yes I know, I'm the "weird" one here, lol). Will the lack of the flat toe be a problem for toe pivots? Wondering if I should return them.
Don't return them. I love my lower heels for floorwork these days. With time, you can always get another pair that's a bit taller to experiment.
@@PoleCulture good to know, thank you! I bought them directly through Pleaser (I hate supporting Amazon with their unethical practices) but with Pleasers, I’d have to pay the shipping fee twice ($30x2=$60 ouch!) so glad that you’re saying to keep them, lol. :)
I have high arches also and size up in boots. I love your video !!!!
Thanks so much
Love You, you're doing a great job :) I'm sure you'll get more and more views and subscribers soon :)
Thank you so much!
I have about three shoe sizes.
My main is a 7 1/2, but sometimes I have to go up to an 8 or down to a 7 for some shoes.
It also depends on the brand of the shoe.
Yea, I have to size up or down sometimes too
@@PoleCulture Thank you for making the video.
It's really helpful.
I’m glad I watched your vid before jumping to buy my first pair of Pleasers. Since I’m a beginner I think ima go for the 7” Treasure 708 in size 6 (I’m normally a 6 1/2) let’s see how it goes. Xo
Come back and let us know how it goes!
So size 6 fits me almost perfect!!
i'm a size 6.5 as well and I always size up. My toes don't slide down so i'm happy about that.
I wish I could size up with sandals but my foot ends up too loose. Lol
man i just LOVE the intro of this video jajsjsjkskakskdjjd i’m in love with you
Sweet comment, thank you
I've been a dancer for 15 years... I don't wear anything over 7.5 inches... reason isn't because of experience.. its due to it effects your dancing with pointing your toe... I'm normally a size 7 I always wore a Size 7 but 3 years ago pleaser changed there clear strap shoes.. so now I wear a 8 also I have wide feet... I point my toes so hard I have toe prints lol so it makes a lip...lol... I train girls also and I start girls in a 7 inch heel.. reason because the 6 inch heel are hard to walk in... Platform is too small...
Yea I only like the 6 inch for contemporary floorwork or something where I want to be quick with the floor moves. Most of the time I prefer a taller heel. Thanks for stopping by Sabrina. Happy to connect.
I find US sizes interesting. I live in sweden and what you call inbetween sizes are just sizes here. I'm a 7.5 us I think, but that is 38 in euro sizes. Not sure why that is, but it does make things easier
I agree
patent 7'' sandals is the only shoe i found in my size that isn't too expensive, but they're from the norwegian equivalent of craigslist or depop so i'll have to go and check the size and quality whenever i travel through the country
i'd love a patent 8'' open toe boot when i get more comfy (and more money) though ^^ they look so badass
Yea save up. I know shoes can get a little pricey. Save up for a pair that goes with most of your training wear/outfits and that will be a pair you LOVE.
@@PoleCulture thank you, happy new year!
Look for sites that have free returns and payment plans!
Just bought a patent 8" boot as my first heel and I loved it (it was the holographic green-purple). I'm a size 8 and it was just right even with thick socks.
Now I wanna get a nude faux-suede boot for floorwork but Im scare about getting it dirty so easily 😅 and also the black faux leather sandal who has a skull in the platform. But at the same time I want something really catchy and colourful 😅
Ahhhh.... love of shoes lol
Pleaser shoes for me are complicated because my feet are super small, so even size 5 becomes loose on me. I usually put something under my foot to overcome the situation, but it's just so annoying regardless. I wish Pleaser or any other brand could make smaller sizes :( Nice tips anyway, your channel is awesome :)
Same issue with me. Agree
THANKS
Probably the lowest possible because I'm tall and I've never worn high heels 😂 But I can't decide between sandals and boots. Sandals are cheaper but my feet (and hands) get so ridiculously sweaty I'm afraid my feet will slip from them and I'll twist my ankle. Any recommendations? ☺️
Thank you for Sharing, I was a pole dancer for 2 years and danced till I was 5 months pregnant with my son. He is now 2 years old and i have a 4 month old. Just got a pole for home and wow am I out of shape. Lol thank you sharing!!
Get right back to it mom!!! Let's go! Thanks so much for stopping by.
thanks for such a great video
So nice of you
Great video.
Hi Mistress.. are you selling any of your used heels or boots?
I love shoessss.
Oh, me too.........
Do these work for chair dances? I’m a complete newbie to dance, I tried belly dance a few times, hip hop a few times, and pole dancing once
yes they do. start smaller heel height and work your way up
I have felt the toe jamming also with high arches!!! I'm going to have to try the open toe😍💜
Also important to strengthen feet and ankles.. This will help so much with engagement of foot inside shoes while dancing
Do you think the closed toe pleasers stretch?
I imagine if you have a bigger foot and wider foot then yes, they can stretch a bit (as most shoes stretch after you begin to wear them and they take the form of your foot). I haven’t experienced very notable stretching though. I hope this helps
i need all your content on pinterest sis ❤❤
Haha why on Pinterest? 🤔
Do you get your true size in flamingo 1020 boots ??
Or one size up as recommended?? Thanks
Open toe boots, I stick to 6.5 Close toe boots, I go for 7. Personal preference. I always recommend you try on BOTH!
I will be back to let you know what I get! Thank you
Sounds good!
So I have small but wide feet. I range between a 6 to a 6.5 in regular shoes, but I speculate that if my feet weren't wide I'd actually be more like a 5.5. I bought a 7 in the closed-toe pleaser boots and I can't tell if they are too big or not. My foot slides forward (I also have a high arch) and there is maybe a quarter inch gap behind my ankle. Is this normal? Should your boots feel snug or should there be some room? I'm afraid that as they stretch they will become too big, but I don't want to return them for a 6 just for the 6 to be too tight.
Jules from now on, order both sizes you're in between so that you can try them on for 15 min or so and see how you feel.
I size up for boots but size down for sandals .... Really it depends the fit you also prefer... some people enjoy a very tight fit... I do not because I also have high arches and when my feet slide forward (like you), I do not enjoy my toes on the ground lol.....
So always get both sizes and see what you like best... You won't know until you try both!
why do you wear these types of shoes instead of like sneakers or just socks, do they offer a specific kind of traction?
Because the heels feel sexy and I love the stilettos. Sneakers are fun too! Socks are fun too and have their own glide-effect advantage to play with. I recommend experimenting with all sorts of shoes, socks, and bare feet.
Thanks for your video, this is so helpful. I am in between 35 to 36, and I tried both size 5 & 6 pleasers. I think size 5 is a little bit tight to me(My toes always on the ground when i do floor work. I hurt my toes sometime so I prefer to wear socks. But socks make size5 very tight🥲), but I am more confident to dance with size 5 than size 6. I can’t stand up stable and quick with size 6… maybe I should try another brand☹️
So in those patent sandals, my toes come out and also cut into the toes with the open toes. Is that supposed to be like that? I think i slide down too.
Is that something i have to accept? I put in soles and silicon stickers etc. Do i need to size up or down?
In boots i tried size 12 my toes get crushed i fear if i go open toe boots i will also have the same issue.
I am a bit lost 😂
Loved the video! I'm torn cause I want the black flamingos in faux suede but if they go bad that easily Idk anymore😭 or I'll just sew some shoe protectors 🤓
All shoes " go bad" fast.... especially if you put good use to them. Don't be quick to hate this as this is a lovely process and well-used shoes have their interesting aesthetic too :P
@@PoleCulture I bet ! They'll become like those childhood plushtoys loved a little too much all messed up and adorable haha. But yeah as long as they work in action that's what matters🤭
Thank you so much very helpful
You're welcome!
