12 Heelless Shoes

Anti-Heel Footwear That's Begging for a Broken Ankle (or Two)

If you’ve kept a watchful eye on fashion runways for the past few seasons, you know all about heelless shoes and anti-heel footwear. This slideshow showcases some of our favorite perilous pairs of platforms, boots and sky-high heelless shoes.

While some of these selections, like the black pair of Christian Louboutin ballerina shoes, technically have a tiny stiletto heel and are not quite heelless shoes in the traditional sense, I’ve included them because they’re not meant to support weight like traditional high heels.
