I'm interested in starting to pole dance and I love those clear plastic heels, but unfortunately I have very small feet and I'm a size 4 in womens. Is there any company that would make shoes that would fit me? Thanks so much for the advice!!

I know that Charley Crystal has small feet too. Let me see if I can get her to chime in here.

Have you tried the size 5 in the clears? These shoes tend to fit tight and run small. I know they have children's sizes for pageants but I am not sure where to buy. I would at least try the 5 first. I have small feet and was worried about them being to big.
I have small feet too, should be a 4 or 4.5 but i make due with a 5, they are hard enough to find as is. What i do is buy the pads that you can add to the shoe, they add a half to a full size depending on what type you buy. I do a lot of shopping on beverlyheels.com. shoes are reasonably priced but i think the shipping is a bit ridic, though they do have pretty much anything you can think of and hard to find sizes. Also howcool.com has size 4, not many but there are some.

Thanks guys! I've never tried the 5's, but if they fit me it would be the first time a 5 fit me (LOL). Thanks so much for the tips so far. Howcool.com does have 4's but they don't have the clear ones I want. O well....if I don't hear back from anywhere else I will get a pair there! thank you so much for the replies!
I find that the clear strappy heels by ellie are tighter than pleaser. I have to MASH my feet into my size 8's (I'm like a 7 1/2), but in pleaser I don't.

I wear 5's and sometimes I can tell you that those are too big too! Something that I realized a while back is that they do not make all models in all sizes so most of the time I have to go up to a 6 - which is pretty impossible for me to wear these days. Try to find someone who carries shoes - I buy a lot of my shoes through Empyrean - Mary Ellyn from ETED - her studio sells Pleasers and basically what she does with me is when she is putting in an order which isn't super often, but I just go to the pleaser site and look at the shoes and ask if they have them in a 5 - not all models are available. So please find a store or studio who can special order shoes - that's the best way. Pleasers feel more narrow to me so your best bet is to go with them. Ellie's seem wider to me and they stretch out much faster. Something like a Mary Jane also seems ot run smaller in both brands - so that might be an option for you. I have a pair of pink chrome Pleasers and they are a bit SMALL (5) I could have gone 6. If your shoes are a bit roomy don't get plastic tops because those will totally stretch out on you and become unusable - it's better to get vinyl or something less stretchy. Hope that helps :)

The inserts help a lot too!!!! It fills for like half a size! I have poked extra holes in the ankle straps too!!!!

hahah - I have to poke extra holes too!!!!!
I'm a size 3ish sometimes 4 & my solution to getting size5 clear pleasers to stay on is a combination of insoles and capezio footundeez, you can get them to match your skin tone & they are barely visible when you have your shoes on. My main problem is the inch or so of shoe sticking out behind my feet, kinda the "kid in mom's shoes" look. I've also checked out pageant shoes but they all seem to have shorter heels & no platform (I like the 7"ers). I think all the miniature feet people should email Pleasers and let them know we exist and need sexy shoes!

Small feet here too! I would recommend trying Pleasers... they seem to run small, at least the classic ankle-strap platform stripper shoe type shoes. I wear a 5 in most dance heels, but Pleaser's I wear a 6. The non-platform ones don't seem to run as small though -- I have a pair of shorter stiletto pumps from Pleaser in a 6 and they're pretty roomy.
