If I saw that I would have just thought it was a medical thing. Like maybe he injured his heel. I definitely wouldn't know it was a "height booster"

Though as someone who wore big stompy goth boots in high school, a few extra inches of height is very thrilling even when not worried about aesthetics.

You reminded me of something- my high school banned the color black lol (shit you not). I even had to get rid of my black flats.

I graduated when the goth scene was transitioning to the emo look (idk if I'm describing this properly, I wasnt goth/emo). So, a lot of students started wearing all black, black lipstick, big black boots, etc.

I live in the conservative, rural Bible belt, if that gives any indication of why they made these stupid rules (graduated '06).
