D.O.N. Issue III

Best for: Any any sort of night outing where you prefer to keep a lower profile in regards to your height alteration. 

How tall can it make you? 2.0 to 3.1 inches 

Minimalist Lowtop 

Shoe overview: The Minimalist LowTop is probably the only elevator shoe you’ll see out there with a design as low key and simplistic as this. 

Best for: Make no mistake, this little powerhouse is the “ace up your sleeve” for days spent around people who know you, as they’ll never know WHY you happen to look “different” that day - thanks to these sneaky shoes. 

Like we said, this design is low profile, along with a high “effective” rate. Best for casual outings. How tall can it make you? 2 - 3.1 inches. 

All shoes on this list have one thing no other brand in the world has - Midsole Technology

What is Midsole Technology and how can it help you IMMEDIATELY? 

The problem with most elevator shoes: Even the best elevator shoes have soles that cannot accommodate as much in terms of comfortability, as the height increase only extends down to the heel portion of the sole - which can get a little tiresome after a while for your feet. 

The solution: Midsole technology designed by Don’s Footwear is unique in that the insert has been engineered to allow for the height-increasing portion of the shoe to extend down to the midsole area of the foot (hence the name “midsole”.) 

How can it benefit you INSTANTLY: The fact that Midsole Tech by Dons Footwear extends to the midsole area of the foot means 2 things - 

1.) A more subtle heel increase all around = less noticeable elevator shoes as most will not be able to tell where the sole arch begins and ends, let alone that it is raising your heel, to begin with. 

2.) Insane comfortability due to a more natural flatter sole profile.

Elevator shoes containing Midsole Technology are designed for busy individuals who want height increase along with maximum comfortability WITHOUT ANY SACRIFICE. 

All shoes on this list are perfect for shorter guys who want a slight height boost and maximum comfortability. Check out how Midsole actually works right here.

How tall can it make you: 2.0 - 3.1 inches 

Note: this boot is slightly heavier to the touch than our average boot due to the double leather layer under the heavy-duty, however once on the foot, it feels like a regular boot.

Remember all these shoes have patent-pending Midsole Technology meaning these are single-handedly the comfiest elevator shoes out there and ONLY ones with Midsole Tech! 

A BIG problem with most elevator shoes is the awkward position of the heel that makes you notice that your feet are slanted - like a man in heels! 

Midsole Technology fixes this problem for good!

But ONLY in elevator shoes made with MIDSOLE TECHNOLOGY by Don’s Footwear.
