    I use a decent pair of Clark dress shoes which are comfortable, have arch support (which I need) and a grippy sole so I don't slip when stretching over the table and damage my private bits.

      yeah, this is nice on a hot day, helps vent the body in a hot snooker room.

              i turned up in a new pair of shoes, could feel the blisters starting and kicked them off, played the best snooker of my life, but had also moved on to shorts by that time so unsure whether no shoes or rat arsed is the best way to go! Lol

                Managed to pot a red out the pack and get on the black with this nightmare recently. Needs a really steady approach, bit like wearing high heels.

                    Top man - and great shot !!
                    In terms of high heels you would need the stripper / hooker type platform heels for that shot

                          Fishnets are a nightmare with pockets. Plain stockings are the way forward. As for heels, you can't beat a pair of metalic platform disco dandies from the 70s; it's all about turning your opponent into a Waterloo on the table.

                                I've been thinking about Jimmy (not because he's short and would benefit from heels) but because of his footwear. Saw him in some lovely looking suede flats at Legends. Anyone got an idea who makes these shoes?
