Best Sneakers for Shoe Lifts

- Discover what the best and worst types of footwear are when it comes to wearing shoe lifts. Rob Paul from CelebHeights gives you his opinion on what kind of shoes or sneakers to wear with heel lifts.
My personal recommendation is to use something like a high-top converse style trainer, which gives you plenty of room for putting a decent sized lift inside them and boosting your height up 1.5-2 inches, making you look noticeably taller.
Many actors over the years have worn shoe lifts in films and TV to enhance their height, making them appear taller than they really are.

i tried it in boots and hit my head on my door
Me too..I can't even go through the door without hitting my head
I'm going back to school for state testing I haven't been to school since the start of the pandemic, even though im taller now, and in the 30th percentile, I want to be lifted 2inches to get to the 70th percentile.
then you don't need shoe lifts if you hitting your head on the door.
Same here.. getting a bit sick of ducking under doorways all the time
Once you start wearing lifts you can never go back. Proceed with caution.
You know what... Women have push up bras, makeup, shapewear and butt pads. I'll take my lifts fuck it
Is lifts damage your feet?
@@diamondhands3671 They will alter your posture. But what I meant was once you start giving people the impression you're two inches taller than you really are, people may notice when you stop wearing them and consider you dishonest and insecure. For example, what if you're asked to remove your shoes some day?
Rich P. Yes thats true.. i will look like a clown.. i just wanted to go 187 to 190 :/ i think i will just prefer bigger shoese
@@diamondhands3671 Perhaps only use them on special occasions. You don't want to get too used to being taller than you are, should you become reliant. Lifts will be burdensome. All in my opinion.
Never knew about shoelifts. Thanks for making this video.
That vid help me a lot thx man really apreciate that
I use the Birmingham brand off of Amazon. Even though I don't need them for height (6' 1 1/8" barefoot) with me weighing 254lbs the cushion they provide is wonderful. I'm missing meniscus in one knee and have six screws and two plates in an ankle on the opposite leg..
Do the birmingham brand insoles give you the inches advertised? And are they long lasting?
So I don’t need to size up to fit my 1 inch lift in converse
If my sneakers 6 uk...which size should i take for 4 layer shoe lifts?
Do you think the Nike Air Max 720 Saturns could work with shoe lifts?
Rob, I'm size 10 US in Converse, do I need to get a different size one to put the 1.75" lifts and still be comfortable?
I wore these 1-2" style lifts for years in footwear. Frankly uncomfortable and I just can't do it anymore. I now opt for footwear that already has a decent heel of at least 3cm and then add a small 1.5cm cork lift inside.
JamesDelta is it conftable to use a 2.0-1.5
give some examples
Very true. I have a mid top sneaker woth lifts in it for very rare occasions. Gives like 4.5 cm. And one another chunky athliesure style one with which gives 3.5 for casual wear.
Hi rob,can i wear my shoe lifts with air jordans that has a high shaft doesent matter the model for exemple the air jordans 1?
Hi I would love to know if these would be good for a shoe like the air max 1
I tried it in vans old skool and my feet kept sleeping out lol
How big of a lift?
Did you wake them up?
dont buy vans then
@@nickotonic8073 always that 1 guy in the room
@@neu112 😂 For real.
Very informative
Rob - from your study of the subject - and - experience - what percentage of the "Old Hollywood" stars (Dean Martin, Humphrey Bogart, Elvis, Sinatra, Robert Taylor, Robert Wagner, Spencer Tracey, etc) would you estimate actually wore shoe lifts? And how often did they wear them (always, just in movies, or just in public outings)? Finally, do you think that wearing lifts is at all common outside of the entertainment business (Corporate image enhancements, self-esteem issues, etc)? OK, final final question - if you could have chosen your own height - what would it have been?
A funny story..Kirk Douglas..at 5'9" and 6'4" John Wayne were doing a movie together. Big John found Kirk's lifts and hid them...Kirk was not amused...lol
I'm about 6'1 and just tried some lifts and the boost in height is quite noticeable for me. I feel so much taller. I have a slight scoliosis in my lumbar back, which causes a pelvic tilt where the left side of my hip is about an inch higher than the right. I actually should be about 6'2 if my spine and pelvis were straight. I may just wear them on the lower side so my pelvis is balanced out, but it's kinda fun walking around feeling like I'm 6'3 lol.
Face Pull exercise can help you
I cant imagine my 6'4 friend wearing that
Go to a chiropractor and ure good...
6'1 using lifts? How vain can you get?
@@John-on3wt Do you have a girlfriend, mate? I'm 6'1 myself and just ordered those height insoles in order to stand out or even have a chance in dating market. I'm a Lithuanian and here in Vilnius I decided to take a walk around the hotspots at Friday night and most of guys were around 190 - 196 cm tall.
can i use those in the nike air force 1?
Nike tanjuns are able to fit the standard shoe lift with one additional section, you can add two additional sections, but you’ll have to wear pants and you won’t be able to run.
@@appelscha23 I’m 5’9 and they make me just under 5’11. Actual elevator shoes are your best bet if you wanna add 2+ inches
Insoles are only good for adding 1-1.5 inches
Can they work with nike airmax 90?
1 inch insole with one inch heel is great combo and comfortable af they gave 2inch increase in my height👍
@@lunazulc18 airmax give me almost 2 inches and with one layer insole 2.5 inches..
@@appelscha23 what airmax are you wearing?
@@jamesrellera6437 nike 90 and 95.. and you?
Actually it only gave you 1 inch boost coz everyone is wearing shoes not only you
I’ve tried this shoe lifts on multiple types of shoes. If you wants something wear it would be noticeable and fits, the best shoes are chunky trainers or sneakers. I’ve been doin it for almost a year and i could fit Atleast 2 to 3 layers depending on the “chunkiness” of the trainers. Just go with socks that match their color so it wouldn’t be as noticeable.
DaveChiltern I’ve tried through the big brands like adidas nike which was an expensive experiment lol. But i found there are cheap chunky sneakers that are great from bershka and umbro. There are also brands that purposely makes you taller. They’re elevated but they give the illusion that they’re not, so it wouldn’t be noticeable. Right now i rock umbro ”arp runners”. They already give you over 4cm(1.5-2in) increase and with elevated insoles, it would be a total of atleast 7-9cm(3-3.5in) increase
@@appelscha23 no homo but you already look attractive af, don’t think you need this
@@appelscha23 only 5'8, tryna get to 5'10, any suggestions? Any specific shoes? Lifts?
@@appelscha23 hey can these and Air Force 1 high make me 5,11-6’0 I’m 5’8 ordered these yesterday. How much height do they add to you?
@@appelscha23 u said that you were 5ft9 in a other video fuccin idiot
Hope u can make a video about ranking isoles brands, I had bought soooo many bad isoles.
So many brands when u add more than one sections they don't stay together inside the shoes.
Where can i buy this?
Hi Rob is it possible that some of the people (Even the taller guys over 6ft) you met already inserted lift on their shoes? I meant an inch lift won't be detectable right? But it still boost their true height a little but noticeable regardless especially under measurement tape when even 1CM seem so wide of a gap.
I can almost guarantee some of the celebs Rob met have either lifts in their shoes or custom made shoes that already come with a little lift but is too subtle too detect.
Especially the height aware celebs. I can almost guarantee it, if gebetal public is starting to do it. Hollywood (where actors are known to often want to boost their heights) are DEF doing it. Just can't say for sure which celebs are doing it or and how frequent.
I can almost guarantee Vin Deisel be wearing them lifts though haha. Ever see barefoot pics of him??? Those are the not proportions of a 182cm guy lmao. I got him at like 178 tops!l, if im being generous lol.
Anyways love your site and I agree with most of your listings. Far more accurate than Google
reebox the question height sole what do you do with the shoes sell them
I'm 5"3 ft , while using it I'm 5"6 wearing chuck taylor (high cut) shoes, it's unnoticeable
@@appelscha23 yes, some of my friends😁
The same protected he showed ?
The guy in the video using the converse for the lifts looks noticable on 3:33 , just look at the front it looks weird
@@user-hy4wq5jl6e Yo please drop the link to the shoes you wear, do you wear shoe lifts on top of the shoes, or is it just bear
I bought them but they haven’t came yet and I’ve bought them a while back ago
Jordan 1 OG Highs work really well with lifts
Top man 👊
Will it work in boots or it's unbearably unformtable
Will these work in Nike air max 95?
How many lifts can you put in Nike blazers
If u want to wear all of the lifts in one shoe then it is better for u to take high top sneakers and boots if u don’t want ur foot to fall out like Jordan 1s with style and Timberlands as boots
jordan 1s are perfect imo
Yeah even high vans
The crease like hell though on the sides
@@huskierss jordans crease by these??
You gotta be 6+ to rock Jordan’s haha little dudes look funny in them anyways
@@kadekrauss3513 I don’t see 6 year olds rocking them anyway
Would it fit on vapormax 360 ?
Can I try these in balenciaga triple s shoes ?
Made my own lifts and managed to fit them into a standard Air max sneaker. Looks very natural, ands about 1.5 inches to my height and are pretty comfortable.
How did u make it
Mainly just very tightly folded paper and some extra stuffing for comfort.
@@appelscha23 Im 15 and 5'6. With the lifts im around 5'7 1/2.
I thought so too but I only measured about 1/2 inch taller with the airmax alone. I guess my weight compresses the lower part of the shoe. You could have a slightly different model though.
@@appelscha23 so overall in my case the shoe gives me 1/2 inch + 1 inch lift. So far no one has noticed, but it gives me a lot of confidence. My girlfriend is like 5'4 so it's nice to be 3 1/2 inches taller 😁
ThankS sir
Can I use these2inches in vans sneaker?
Do they work in school shoes?
Can I wear just the base shoe lift (1.18 inches) in an air max 270 without my feet popping out of the shoe?
How does Downey do
it with all his shoes?
I'm short at 7'1, my two best friends Shaq and Yao Ming always make fun of me. I was looking into buying elevator shoes so I could finally be as tall as them.
hahaha 😑 just as funny as the other 4 videos ive seen you comment this on 💀💀
Isn’t shaq also a 7’1 manlet tho?
Bro which is best shoe to put all these 3 layers
Rob , with the merrel footwear do you take out the insole before inserting the lift or include the insole to??
I'd always leave whatever insole is in the footwear then add a lift.
What about adidas forum or converse jack purcell?
I previously bought from it... Yes it is useful, but it is for occasions and doesn't benefit me on duty.
Time to 6'6
This guy puts his footwear thru hell lol
Hi there Big Rob, i' m planning to buy a pairs of sneackers from chamaripa, for a total increase of 6 cm. I wanted to ask you, do you think that at the end these shoes will give me a really advantage of 6 cm? or they will be more like 5 cm?
@@RobPaul Thank's a lot Big Rob!!
I’m 5’3 or 5, i just recently bought converse with high cut. When i put 3 layers of insole, Im like almost 5’6 or so
I'm 5'4 and I would like to be 5'7 lmao
By the same protect he showed ?
So cool, I need to get me a pair of high top converse, and put them as many lifts as I can.
Is it comfortable, because a lot of people have been complaining that it is uncomfortable.
Is it comfortable and which ones did you actually get and from where?
Do they have lifts for flat feet?
What about Air Force 1 high??
How much lifts would I be able to fit in Jordan 10s?
How did you make them?
Had these lifts for about 9 months now, I wear 3 lifts in my work boots and 2 lifts in some trainers, I’m already like 6’2 but getting to like 6’4 or 6’5 is amazing
@@appelscha23 Yes, but they don’t suspect i wear lifts
Haha same man, I’m 189 but I still wear lifts in my boots in order to reach 195-196, it feels amazing
Bro ur good, why trying these soles
how can someone contact you ?
Would these work in Jordan 4’s? Like how much layers should I use?
U still haven’t grown up 😂
@@762junior3 tf u mean haven’t grown up

My new shoes are like that I can't put any lifts on them but they still give 1,5 inch which I think is good enough. Im 183,5cm with them so I think im ok but I wish to be that height without shoes.
@@RobPaul yup my old shoes were only 1,5cm.
Is it comfortable if I use in Oxford shoes?
You can buy an elevator oxford woth 2 inches height , it's gonna be muchore comfortable than using insoles
Do a video about Glucosamine real effect, please.
I'm 5'5 at morning and 5'4 at night, i'm tall in Brazil. But i want more.
My ankle block can I wear it
hi man. please could you tell me can I fit the 3/4inch insole into low air force 1? I am ordering soon so I would appreciate the reply. And is it comfortable?
No, air forces are already quite thick, if you wanna add insoles then buy the mid or high top versions.
I’m 6ft and I love converse but they just don’t add anything it’s like your walking barefoot
totally true ahahah
All you have to do is buy the shoe 1 size bigger ... so I’m a size 9 in men I usually buy a 9 1/2 size shoe for comfort but now you would have to buy a size 10 shoe .. you won’t have to worry about it being lose cause if the lifts .... thank me later .. ooo and black jeans pants are your best friend
Have you tried it.
Also it won’t be obvious
@@ac1232 have you? If yes tell me how it was
I’m 5’10 I just need 1.75 but the inserts look crazy
Since the air max 90s I have almost give me an inch and a half, I just fold a couple of napkins and put them in each shoe and, boom, they make me 2 inches taller.
haha I use socks but this could work XD I just want to be 1/2 inch taller to be 6'2 in shoes
Are they comfortable? The 1.25" shoe lifts are super comfortable. They don't move.
@@timt9625 I used to fold up socks in my shoes before a night out. Not consistent though, sometimes one foot would be more boosted than the other.
@@timt9625 most people can't tell the difference between a guy that's like 6ft tall and 6'2" but the only reason why I'm able to is because of my husband he's 6'4" so I know where my height /head lines up with his body when standing next to him so if I guy claims he's 6'3" I'd be able to tell right away by standing next to him. (why am I on this video? Was lookin up shoe lifts for my friend's husband, he's Vietnamese and like 5'7".

@@RobPaul thankyou 🙏
Do you take the inner sole out before putting the lifts in?
@@RobPaul oh I see. I was just curious because when I use more then 2 wedges at a time it's a little tight. and I can't lace them fully and I have to leave at least one row unlaced which makes me feel like the shoes going to come off.

@@canonballXD you know how well they would work with high top black af1?
I fit the 1.75in lifts in my new high tops and I feel huge, kinda sucks when I take them off after a long day of feeling extra tall, I feel really short then even though I’m not, I’m also thinking about future consequences when I’ll have to meet people with thinner footwear or without at all, I got too greedy lol should’ve been modest with 0.75-1in lifts. Rob, since you are not a liftwearer you probably don’t know about the long-term side effects of lift-wearing, some of my calf muscles get really stiff from time to time.
Makes me feel better, if it works for you, why not?
Interestingly I've been guessed at between 6'5 and 6'6 (196 and 197cm) a few times lately even though I maintain a perfect posture and am 203-204 in large lifts and thicker sneakers. Either people are really bad at guessing or 200+s do have very different proportions.
asdfghjk Fucking giant pricks I’m 5’9 (175cm) and I’m thinking of getting these shoe lifts so I can at least be 5’11 (180cm)...
@@velvy3784 Why would you wear lifts?
I've used shoe lifts for a while and somehow they don't give me as much height boost as before, how is that possible?
I feel like I've lost like 2cm not mm.
The inappropriate posture from lifts is probably putting pressure on your knee and spine cartilages. Over time this gets degraded and you lose inches of your actual height. This is why old people get shorter as they age. You are just speeding up the process by constantly wearing lifts.
@@user-mu1lz3qd5q I Have Scoliosis, so That's why i'm shorter than I would actually be
After constant use the insoles shrink a bit (they are usually made of silicone), or either you got used to the height lifts give you and you don't feel "suddenly taller" , giving you this impression.
@@user-mu1lz3qd5q bullshits, wearing lifts is like wearing cuban heeled boots, so everyone who wears boots becomes shorter?
