“Brother I think you HEAVILY underestimate the many kinds of heels that exist on the market. There should most CERTAINLY be several kinds of heels that would fit someone as sturdy as you. These are quite plain, but I do believe they might be able to hold even your immense weight”

Comfortably, I said, and I will not suffer them to prove your point.

If the day comes when I want to walk on my toes until my legs cramp, I’ll leave the forge and go hunting with my wolves, not strap these hideous, poorly-conceived leather atrocities to my feet! 

My arches hurt just looking at them.

“But it could give you such a lovely posture! Straight back, nice sway to your hips….!”

….I am not known for slouching brother; and I would not be known for mincing.
