He should have used Liftkits…

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012

Kim Jong Ill is most notably known for his tyrannical control over communist North Korea and of course his token “Bono-esque” sunglasses. It seems that there is another secret that Kim Jong Ill hoped to take to his grave: he was a long time wearer of elevator style high heels. It was always known that Kim Jong Ill was apparently short around 5’6″, yet these shoes may have given him the illusion of up to 4 inches!!

These shoes seem to be more trouble than they’re worth. Constant wearing causes pressure in the ankles and makes them very susceptible to injury. Moreover the stiffness of the shoes doesn’t give the natural support an individual needs to stay tall and strong. Not to mention the awkward steps that are taken because of the clunkiness of the shoes, which further pushes the risk of injury. These risks are all encompassed by the visibility factor, everyone could tell he was boasting more height than he had.

There could have been an alternative option for Kim Jong Ill. One that might have kept him in better health. Height increasing insoles would have been a huge asset for Kim Jong Ill, allowing him natural height increase while maintaining orthopedic comfort. These insoles allow for a natural height increase without the visibility, no one will know your secret to standing a little taller. Kim Jon Ill’s years got cut short, but maybe Liftkits could helped him out.. He should have used Liftkits!

How to Deal With Being Short

Thursday, October 13th, 2011

Short guys can sometimes use a boost...

If you are on the shorter side, then you have obviously been dealing with this problem for all of your life. You were probably the shortest kid in school and got teased and taunted then. But that doesn’t mean that you have to continue on in that way. There are ways that you can add a little height to your small frame without anyone even realizing it. The effects of doing this could actually change your life.

 

There are some men in this world who will always be successful, no matter what their height is. Michael J. Fox is only 5’4”, but he was one of the highest-paid television stars around. Al Pacino is 5’7” and has been successful for almost four decades with both women and his career. But for the average guy, lack of height can be a problem.

 

Although there are a few ways that you can really change your height, such as by taking human growth hormones (which are dangerous), or by undergoing surgery (which is even more dangerous), most men are choosing more temporary options to deal with their height issues. By simply changing the way that you dress, the types of clothes that you wear, and the way that you hold your frame, you will appear taller.

 

Another way to appear taller to all of those around you is to put lifts into your shoes. These are certainly not the same as “elevator shoes,” since they have the same size soles as any other shoes. You can wear whatever brand shoes you want, but simply replace the existing insoles with LiftKits. These are invisible to everyone around you, yet they will give you an extra one to two inches. You can wear them with dress, casual, or even athletic shoes, and they will give you all the advantages that the taller people around you enjoy.

 

Height Increasing Shoes Vs. LiftKits: No Comparison!

Ugly Height Increasing Shoe

If you are looking for a way to get a much needed height boost (and what shorter-than-average person isn’t?), then you likely have been debating between investing in height increasing shoes and LiftKits. The fact is that when you give both options an honest look, there really is no comparison at all. With height increasing shoes, you generally are paying upward of $75 to $100 per pair of shoes, and you have limited style options to choose from. You have to buy the styles that these height increasing shoes are made in rather than choose shoes that really suit your style. This is an expensive and rather backward way to go about buying shoes!

 

With LiftKits, however, you get a much more affordable way to boost your height. These shoe inserts are priced under $30, and they can be removed and placed into whichever shoes you feel like wearing that day. So with just one small investment, you can get that height you want, and this generally is up to one or two additional inches of height! The inserts go right into your shoes, and they can be used for almost any type of shoes you have. This means that you can walk into the shoe stores of your choice, pick the styles that appeal to your unique personality, comfort, and sense of style, and then place the inserts inside. It’s that simple.

 

After you do this comparison for yourself, you too will see that there really isn’t much of a comparison to make when it comes to choosing between height increasing shoes and the LiftKits inserts. The LiftKits are more affordable by a long shot, and they give you the complete ability to where the shoes you want to wear while giving you that height you want. Take some more time to look into what LiftKits have to offer, and you will find this really is the way to go if you want to boost your height by up to one or two inches with ease.

Get Noticed With Height Boosting Insoles

So many people make comments that short people have an inferiority complex, and if you are short yourself, you likely know that those comments really have some sound truth behind them. The fact is that when you are shorter than everyone else, you just don’t seem to have that larger-than-life presence that other people of average or taller stature have. If you want to get noticed in a group, you will want to check out height boosting insoles to see what they can do for you.

 

Next time make sure you have your LiftKits!

 

Now, there are some shoes with a built-in lift to them, and these are specially designed shoes that have a special insole included as a part of the shoe. With height boosting insoles, however, you can slide the insert into any pair of shoes that you own. These insoles can give you that extra inch or two in height that you need to really get noticed. They can be removed from your shoes each evening and placed into a new pair of shoes the next day, and you don’t have to worry about buying special styles. You can shop in regular shoe stores and pick out modern styles, and then customize them at home later by adding these shoe inserts.

 

Just think back to the last time you were in a group setting and everyone in the group was looking down at you. It’s hard to feel like you are an equal with these people when they are constantly looking down on you, but when you take matters into your own hands and put these height adjusting insoles into your shoes, you can get that extra inch or two you really want so that people no longer look down on you but instead look you right in the eye. This truly is just what you need to gain confidence in social and professional settings!

One Thing That Grooms Must Not Forget

Sunday, September 18th, 2011

Your wedding day is an important day for your entire family, and there will be permanent photographic memories of that day that you will all look back on for years to come. But if you are shorter than your wife to be, or even the same height, then you need to make sure that you come across in the photographs as just a little bit taller. Not only will it make for a better picture, but you will feel much better about yourself when you are able to look down at her from above.

 

Most men spend a lot of time on their wedding attire, but little time on their footwear. Yet it is in the footwear that you can really add your height. By using lifts within your shoes, you will be able to add an extra one inch to two inches that you might not otherwise have. Your bride will be wearing heels, and perhaps much higher heels than you have ever seen her in, so you should be prepared to heighten as well.

 

By buying LiftKits, you can easily add two inches of height within your shoes, without having to buy elevator shoes (shoes with large heels) that would show up in the photographs of your wedding. When you stand next to your bride and the entire wedding party, you will appear taller and hopefully taller than your bride.

 

These are basically soft, neoprene insoles that fit right into your shoes. They are not just for dress shoes, either, as you can use them in your casual or your sporty shoes, too. They are comfortable, provide you with sufficient cushioning, and also enable you to walk more upright, adding even more height to your frame. If you want to look good on your big day, then this is the way to make sure that you do.

 

Fashion Secrets to Add Height

Friday, September 16th, 2011

fashion secrets

Although it certainly isn’t fair, there are some advantages to being taller in this world. For both men and women, the chances of having a successful career are much greater if you are on the higher side of average when it comes to height. You will also make more money over the course of your lifetime and have better opportunities when it comes to the opposite sex.

 

But if you weren’t born with the height that you want and feel that an extra inch or two might make a big difference in your life, then there are a few fashion secrets you can follow that will enable you to get the respect and have the confidence that you need in life to succeed.

 

One thing that you should definitely not do if you are short is wear frumpy, baggy clothes. They will only make you look shorter. You should also try to wear pants that are tighter fitting, especially around the legs so that you appear taller.

 

Shoes with tall heels may help shorter women to look a little taller, but in reality they aren’t fooling anyone. With men, shoes with heels are even worse. But you can try wearing lifts, which will certainly add to your height.

 

The primary advantage of having lifts in your shoes is that you can wear your normal shoes and no one will be able to tell that you have them in. LiftKits are a particularly well-known brand that will enable you to get an extra inch or two out of the shoes that you already are wearing. These can be worn in any kind of shoes (athletic, dress, or casual), and although you will appear taller, no one will be able to figure out just why you are standing straighter and appear so much more confident.

Fact : Taller Men Achieve More

powerful man

The average height for men in the United States is now 5’9”, which is actually a little shorter than it was a generation ago. But if you are shorter than this, then you are probably suffering from a variety of prejudices that make it harder for you to get a job, harder to get a raise or a promotion, and also a lot harder to get a date.

 

People just tend to look at taller people as being more powerful and capable. Unfortunately, there is nothing that you can do about that. Women face the same kind of prejudice, with taller women being considered more attractive than shorter women, and taller women also getting much better-paying jobs.

 

But if you want to appear taller, there are some things you can do such as change the type of clothing that you wear. You can also make yourself physically taller by “heightening,” which is the practice of putting lifts inside your shoes. Although you may think that only someone who was really short would do this, the truth is that many men in Hollywood and on Wall Street do it because it makes them appear more powerful and capable.

 

The great thing about lifts is that you can put them in your shoes and no one will ever know. You will wear the same brand name shoes as everyone else, whether you are wearing athletic shoes or dress shoes, yet you will be an inch or two taller. So if you are only 5’7” right now, with a product like LiftKits, you can get yourself up to the average height of 5’9”. If you are 5’10”, then you can finally read the magic number of six feet, which is where you will really see benefits in terms of earning power and the ability to attract women.

Finding Shoes That Make You Taller

Tuesday, August 9th, 2011

So many people today, men and women alike, look for one thing in particular when they go shoe shopping, and that is shoes that make you look taller. Nobody enjoys people looking down at them. Whether it’s family, friends, co-workers, employees, or anyone else, when people look down at you, it makes you feel less confident and even inferior. Over the years, this can really make in impact on your self-image, so it’s clear that you want to do what you can to find shoes that make you taller.

 Styles

 There are only so many shoe styles available that accomplish this goal. For men, the options are truly limited, and this is especially true when you are considering professional attire. For casual wear, boots and other thick-soled shoes are an option for men, but these aren’t appropriate for all occasions or all weather. For women, there are of course heels as an option, as well as boots, clogs, and other styles. While there are more styles for women to choose from, the drawback is that heels and other such shoes are not always comfortable and they can even cause health issues.

 Insoles

 Sometimes the solution doesn’t rest in the shoe styles but in the shoes themselves. This is because rather than finding shoes that make you taller, you can actually put inserts into your existing styles that give you a healthy boost. What’s best is that nobody else knows you are wearing them!

 The Results

 Whether you do choose to buy a style that has a thicker heel or you choose to go with the more comfortable and healthier option of insoles, the result is that you will be taller than you are barefooted, and you will have that extra edge that gives you a confidence boost every day, too.
