|
|
Sneakers's height is 5 ft 8 in (173 cm)
|
|
Nike Air Force One
|
3cm (1.18 inches)
Nike's big seller, these have thick looking soles up close but don't give as much height as they'd suggest they might, basically 1.2 inches.
|
Adidas Superstar 2
|
2.5cm (1 inch) - 2cm (0.75 inch)
A popular style, the shell toe. Brand new this sole looks to give more than what they actually give, which is really 2.5cm. But after a few weeks of wear though this sneaker becomes 2cm, or 0.75 inch.
|
|
Adidas Oregon
|
3cm (1.18 inches)
New, it gives about 1.25 inches. With some trainers, after a few weeks the insole kind of gets bedded in and so it settles down a few mm less than new. I've worn this pair to 4 conventions in 2006. For pic reference, those cons were these people were at: 1) Meghan Gallagher, 2) Doug Bradley, 3) Glenn Morshower
|
Reebock Classic
|
2.85cm (1.15 inches)
New they'd give more 1.2 inch, I've worn a used pair to 2 conventions. For pic reference, those cons were these people were at: 1) Lou Ferrigno, 2) Carlos Bernard.
|
|
Nike Shox NZ, Turbo OZ
|
3.6cm (1.41 inches)
If new out the box both these pairs gave good 1.4 inches, a few weeks of wear and for me I found they'd creeped down a little below 1.4. Absolutely my favorite type of trainer based on comfort. I've worn these to 2 conventions, for reference: 1)Ron Glass, 2)Tony Todd.
|
Nike Airmax 95
|
3.4cm (1.34 inches)
New, seemed to give about 1.35 inches.
|
|
Nike Free
|
2.75cm (1.08 inches)
Extremely lightweight trainer, the sole looks like it could give you more than this, but the insole is shaped slightly curved at the heel, after a few weeks drops to basically 1 inch.
|
Nike Air 180
|
2.7cm (1.06 inches)
Just over 1 inches, used to be kind of pair I'd wear every day as they seemed very comfortable. I've worn this trainer to one convention, for reference: 1) Jensen Ackles con. They dropped to about 0.98 inches by then.
|
|
Nike Airmax Ltd
|
3.45cm (1.36 inches)
This is kind of similar height to airmax 360, although I think gives a little more than this limited edition.
|
Puma Tx 300
|
3.2cm (1.26 inches)
I picked this pair up thinking on the size of the heel they'd give near 1.4 inches, but surprisingly not even 1.3. I have worn this pair to C11, for reference: 1) James Marsters con.
|
|
Timberland Euro Dub
|
3cm (1.18 inches)
The timberlands usually have a larger heel and a lesser heel, the above new gives 1.18 inches and is the lesser heel.
|
Adidas Samoa
|
2.5cm (1 in)
This is a comfy version of the shoe, gives near 1 in new, normal samoas give bit less than this.
|
|
Doc Martin Style
|
3.4cm (1.34 inches)
This shows a typical doc martin style boot, where the heel is cut to a standard range. Many think such a boot gives 1.5-1.6, but not really unless its got extremely thick and cushioned insole.
|
Crocs Cayman
|
2.2cm (0.87 inch)
Popular summer shoe. Concave shape so give less than an inch in reality. Ugly looking things if you ask me.
|
|
Vans Classic Slip Ons
|
1.4-1.5cm (0.55 inch)
The chequered style is popular. Brand New they give around 1.6cm, but after wearing 1.4-1.5cm
|
Converse All Star
|
1.6cm (0.62 inches)
I own several classics, there are some special editions.
Slimline converse give the same.
|
|
Nike Shox Arraw
|
3cm (1.18 in)
These are not as obviously big as normal shox, they have pretty comfy insoles. brand new I measured them as 3cm, after a year they were about 1.1 inch.
|
Nike Street Shox V
|
2.1cm (0.83 in)
A low urban style of shox, nowhere near as comfy as arraws but if you want less sole this is a good trainer.
|
|
Boat Shoe
|
1.9cm (0.75 in)
A lot of boat shoes have pretty slim insoles, this pair is typically the style that gives about three quarters of an inch.
|
Merrell Fashion Trainer
|
2cm (0.8 in)
I've worn this shoe at quite a few conventions over 2009-2010.
|
|
Airwalk Skate Shoe
|
1.3-1.4cm (0.5 in)
This is a low skate style sneaker, it appears to give more height than it actually does.

Adio Skate Shoe

Another style of skate shoes. A lot of Adios give 0.6-0.75 inch range

A thick soled Cat Boot with an insole that is a few mm thick, gives in total about 1.5 inches.
