    So I'm a 16 year old male, around 5'6 lookin' to squeeze a bit more height out of the footwear department without losing out in the style area. At the moment, I'm wearing very thin River Island sneaker kinda shoes and some pink Vans sorta shoes but I also have a pair of Nike shellsuits in white. Can anyone recommend a brand or shop that can help me out?

    Might be worthwhile e-mailing Bono (bono@u2.ie) and asking him where he
    shops. :D

    Heard something recently on the radio about these shoes.
    Ray D'Arcy got some and tried them out on air !!!!!
    It was gas Will measured him before and after, they seemed to work.
    You could check the today fm website it may still have some pic's and a link.

    one thing to remember that its not magic, you heel will be elevated off the floor so while its not visible to the outside world you will in effect be wearing high heels and will this "walk a bit funny" as a result- never mind your "heels" will be killing your feet - I say this tongue in cheek but its true

    I've a pair of these - http://www.amazon.com/adidas-Mens-Campus-ST/dp/B0006O00Q4 and they actually make me about an inch/inch and a half taller. I can finally convince myself I'm 6ft and not 5ft 11.
