After platform shoes for men went out of fashion in the early eighties, average height and short men were left with no alternative but switch to normal shoes with normal heels. Some enterprising shoe manufacturers saw an opportunity and introduced slip in shoe lifts. Shoe lifts gained some instant popularity; however, there were some inherent problems with shoe lifts and soon some innovative shoe manufacturers started offering elevator shoes as the perfect replacement.
The biggest disadvantage with slip in shoe lifts is that it does not always compliment the shoe. So if a shoe lift that is more than 2 inches high makes the wearer uncomfortable. Running with slip in shoe lifts is out of the question as the chances of twisting the ankle and causing grievous injury increases manifold. Elevators are designed in such a way that the height of the insole is factored in while making the top and front of the shoe. So the ankle fits inside the shoe and does not protrude out. These shoes have good ankle support thus reducing or eliminating the chances of a twisted ankle. Running with elevator shoes is easier than running with slip in shoe lifts.
Since normal shoes are not designed to fit shoe lifts they lack the heel locking area that all elevators have. The slip in shoe lifts are free and move around inside the shoe while elevators have the height increasing insole firmly stitched or glued inside the shoe to keep it in its place. Another disadvantage with slip in shoe lifts is that if the shoe lift is too high the wearer is likely to get blisters on the heel and ankles where they rub against the shoe.
