the man had some bad ass shoes...loved em.

Love this. His heels are wicked cool!

I stopped wearing heels a couple of years ago. Have terrible feet pain everytime I do wear them and I don't dance on top of pianos. It must have been a real strain on him.

razz indeed they caused him problems, but he wore them like no other.

Don't beleive everything you read. Morris Day had hip replacement. So did Sammy Davis Jr, I th ink. Did they both wear high heels? No. Prince was very rough on his legs and knees from all the dancing he did, which is probably why he was in pain there as he got older. Maybe his choice of footwear was a factor but it didn't cause the problem.

AND NEVER DID HE EVER FALL IN THE HEELS!!! NOT ONCE!!! I NEVER SAW THAT!!! HOW?!?!?!?!

.

He fell down a bunch of times during concerts. I saw a couple of them either in person or on video and that happens to every other dancer who does thousands of shows as well.

Some women wear heels their whole lives. Anyway I think it's what he did in the heels that caused pain not the heels themselves. [Edited 5/4/16 12:59pm]

Women are more likely than men to suffer from chronic pain. So if the painkiller story is true, it's probably a combination of shoes and what he did in them, and there could certainly be genetic factors in there as well. It's not uncommon for people to start suffering from the very beginnings of arthritis at his age, either.

Most of the women that have problems are carrying too much weight and dont get the proper size - as being fat and having big feet are not sexy. Prince had neither of these issues. Those high were custom made, of course.

You nailed it. I wear high heels only on certain occasions and even though my knees are aching and have been operated twice. I have run hurdles, hurt my right knee in the slopes but otherwise... I have always worn flat heels or comfortable shoes where I know I can run every time I need to. Running or jumping in high heels is ridiculous but Prince made it kind of art. RESPECT.

High heels aren't good for anyone's feet. Feet weren't made to be walked on in that position. Just ask my podiatrist.

It doesn't matter whether those high heels were custom made or not, people's feet were not made for walking around in high heels. I made it to my 30s. But had to have multiple surgeries to correct my feet because I was in so much pain. Haven't worn high heels since.

R I P, Prince. We will NEVER forget you. Thank you so very much.
