Has anyone done any experiments to see if they are treated any differently when wearing shoe lifts or elevator shoes vs without?  For example, ever gone out to a bar or coffee shop with lifts and see if it makes a difference with getting a date or respect you get from people?

Absolutely, the lifts work just as well as LL when you're wearing them.  The problem is you only get the benefits while wearing uncomfortable shoes.

Could you elaborate on how you've experienced this difference? Any examples from common situations?

The few times I've worn lifts I was so focused on how uncomfortable they were that I couldn't notice if there was a change in how people perceived me. I've tried a few different kinds of lifts and I end up with bad pain in my calves at the end of the day, so I'm not a fan.

I just had the general feeling that people looked at me differently and had a better overall opinion of me.  It's hard to give specific examples since it's such a general, overall impression.  And like Kilokahn, I didn't wear them much due to the pain.

I must've spent over a thousand dollars trying out different brands hoping to find something wearable.  Flat platform boots from Demonia were the only acceptable ones in terms of comfort, but they look funny unless you're dressed as a full-blown goth or punk, and anyone can see you're taller than you should be if they just look down at your feet.

Bought them last year and more girls noticed me. I remember having girls tell me that I've grown, etc. I hated the discomfort and the way I walked, plus the limit of shoe styles I could wear. You couldn't really wear them with lo top shoes. I worn them for a good 6 months then ditched them. I still have 2 pairs and I'm planning on throwing them out.

It doesn't change that much. It mostly changes how you feel inside which ultimately changes the way everyone sees you. Confidence is much bigger than any height gain))))
