I like variety in my shoe silhouette, just as I do in my overall outfit silhouettes. With a wider, high volume foot, I usually make sure I have enough room for a ball of foot insert, so my foot can be cushioned and gently held back when I wear a pointy toed shoe. Block heels, but example, are great on me. They look great with bootcuts and wide leg pants, which is a plus in my book. They do tend to look more dressy than rounder toes, which runs counter to my casual lifestyle these days, but if the other details of the footwear suit my style and the comfort is there, I can get a decent amount of wear out of them.
In general, almond toes work better. I love them. I have relatively small feet so never worry about a bit of lengthening. They do look a bit dressier than other toe shapes to my eye, which conflicts with my more casual lifestyle, but flat or low hell or wedge versions still work.
I much prefer pointy toes to round toes on me. Just purchased a pair of pointy toes loafers for autumn. I wear wide leg trousers a lot and like the combination. Too pointy is uncomfortable and round too casual for my preference and they make my feet look wide.
That being said, i prefer low vamp especially if higher contrast, because it seems to minimize the overly long look. My toes are short and the first three toes on each foot are all the same length.
My toes are so much happier in open-toe sandals than in anything closed. But gentle almond toes are perfect — wish there were more on the market! I would buy all my shoes pointy-toed if I could. I do sometimes need casual shoes though, which pointy-toed shoes are not.
I like them and find them elegant, but my feet find them slightly uncomfortable. Therefore I prefer to wear shoes with a more rounded toe.
I like almond toes and they seem to fit my feet perfectly. I have medium size feet but the look is not my style. Yes I like pointy toed shoes and boots although only a more moderate point. With love volume feet and long toes, you have explained why these work for me. With comfort as a given, I like most shoe shapes and enjoy a variety. Since heels above 1.
I can wear many pointy styles with my feet happy and the return of this option came at just the right time for my feet. I am more of a round toe person. My favorite shoe style by far. I am short and can only wear flats or low heels and the points on my shoes are what make it all work for me. They might add a touch of dressiness to my casual outfits, but more importantly they add a touch of structure.
I fall into the category of having big feet for my size but like a shoe with low vamp that comes to a shallow point. If a shoe is too long, I tend to trip over the points. An almond toe or shallow point is my favorite style. Also, church kneelers and pointy toed shoes do not mix. The shoe points get damaged quickly. This is especially true of metallics, patent, and suede. I have relatively small feet size 6.
I like them but have to be careful as I have arthritis in my big toe joints. Occasionally I can wear them if I size up. Luckily I equally like other types of toes also! I love pointy toes and find them a great option for my narrow-ish low volume feet. Another downside to pointy toed shoes is the wear at the point. Suntiger, interesting point about the high contrast. Pun intended. YES, the points of pointy toes get damaged quickly.
A disadvantage. Lisa p, it makes sense. It has taken me years to find the right pair — which I just duplicated. Have you tried Rothys? Viva and Lisa p, I think of classic points as a Trendy Classic so always in style, timeless, and therefore not stuck in an era. Like you, I have narrow feet that feet into pointy shoes. Still, I prefer almond shaped toeboxes and this post has had me thinking why. The dark camo is pretty cool. Curious about the texture — are they a bit stretchy?
Almond shaped I do like — esp. I prefer almond toes but sometimes I really want an exaggerated lengthened toe for a kind of statement. Team pointy toe here! I feel more sophisticated in a pointy toe than any other shape. I have feet like you Angie, in that they are low volume, but mine are a lot bigger at a size 10 or IMO it seems like they are making them with extra room in the point which makes them longer but more comfortable.
I have not tried Rothys, but I remember seeing some forum discussion. I will look that up. Angie, I think that I just cannot stand anything even vaguely constricting … I like comfort too much! Oh, yes. I like them a lot. They must fit comfortably, though! No toe squishing allowed. I adore the look of pointy-toed shoes. Almond or witchy, I love them all. I have short, wide feet with stubby toes — and I love pointed toe shoes. In fact, all my most-worn shoes have pointed toes.
Some more almond, some more pronounced but not like the witchy ones you mention. The trick has been finding ones with a wide toe box. A few pairs are a little tight for all-day comfort, but no worse than many round toed shoes. My goal is to find shoes that fit properly from the heel to ball of foot. My short toes mean the toe area is often fairly empty. I have to try them for FIT only — so that I can pass on the info. They are too casual looking for my style preferences. Are you really 10 years older than me?
I think of us as the same age! With my wide toe box and narrow heels they just do not work. My most worn size is 11m. My shoes have to have ties, zippers, t-straps, etc. I love them on other people but have a hard time with them myself! High-Volume feet here, and despite their reputation for elongating the leg, they make my short legs look very strange when they terminate in that pointy foot.
I do have one pair that I have had for decades that I love, a slingback style, but I think they work because they are not particularly classic… the point comes out almost dead center on the foot rather than angled towards the big toe, almost Arabesque…. I absolutely love pointy-toed footwear. Unfortunately, as you pointed out, it can be hard to find ones that work for high-volume feet. Occasionally a well-fitting pair pops up, like our white Zara booties from several years ago, Angie.
Oh how I miss those booties!!! I literally wore them into the ground. They were just so incredibly versatile, and worked with all the jeans and bottoms in my closet. Plus, the white made everything I wore them with look more polished and put together. I so want to find a pair to replace them with, but last year I must have tried on at least 20, pairs of white, pointy-toe booties and none of them were right as far as fit was concerned There will also be a list of synonyms for your answer.

Missing Link Privacy. Oxfords are professional enough to pull off but unique enough to put a little bit of yourself out there. Stiletto: A pointed toe stiletto is the ultimate power statement. Not only do they make your legs look incredible, but they also announce your presence with every step.
Stilettos come in several different styles, from the minimalistic to the platform. I recommend a pointed toe on a patent leather stiletto or a shiny synthetic leather option.
A suede heel in neutral, but fun, colors are also great. Flat: For those less in love with heels, a flat is a great option. They give you the same professional vibe without sacrificing your feet in the process. Flats are just as professional and should be accepted in any business-related environment. There are some places that force their female staff into heels, but in most places, this is actually illegal. I love a pointed toe flat that has an ankle strap with a smart, tiny buckle.
This adds a little something extra, and there are bonus points if your jewelry matches the color of the buckle. Aside from this style, there are several others.
Flat styles are basically endless, and you can get all the same styles on a flat as you can on a heel. Boots: These are less popular in a business environment, but for dinners, with the executive, they can work just fine.
They also work great for those on the sales floor! Boots with a pointed toe can be a great option for the colder months, as well, since they offer far more protection against the cold. Ankle boots with a lengthy heel are probably your best bet, although there are definitely styles that are just fine with a chunkier heel. Meet in the middle and go for a cone heel- this gives you both stability and style!
