i don't wear heel, in my experience you can not get good traction in them.

I'm with patty, heels are for the birds. and maybe that's why that anonymous yet inspired woman tossed hers up there 😊

Well, if regular shoes mark gang territory, than heels must mark prostitute territory.

Well you have to admit, shoes on a telephone wire are slightly different than gum under a table. People usually just stick their gum wherever, and a table is the closest place that wouldn't be obvious. I doubt, on the other hand, that people say "I'm done with these shoes for now, but I'm nowhere near a closet. Oh, I know! I'll tie them together and then put them way up there on a telephone line!"

i wonder if there was a prom or other school dance near-by where these shoes were found.
