A high heel for women is provided. The high heels according to the current invention have at least two tall heels fixed to rear end of the bottom of sole of the shoes...

The Cleat Heels would be good to wear when you want to chit-chat with the visiting giant alien heptapods.

Those cleat heels have got to be fun on gratings.

I have to admit, though, the two-heeled ones aren't a stupid idea, really. A tripod is stable.
