    Wore them this morning, for the first time in at least 2 years. In less than 3 hours, I was minus one. Hoped nobody would notice but they did and a neighbour offered me a lift home. Does anyone else have this problem?.
    Thanks

    Do you mean the heel of your shoe broke off? That's never happened to me.
    Sometimes the plastic tip on the end of the heel has popped off because of walking/running on cobbles or uneven ground - I've gotten in to the habit of hammering them into place before wearing the shoes to prevent this happening. I think it's because I drag or catch my heels because of the way I walk, not as accustomed to walking in heels as I was in the past when I wore them very regularly.

    Hi yes the heel literally separates from the rest of the shoe, 'nails' sticking out of the heel. Repeated pattern in the past, shame , I did like them...

    If its just the tip on the end of the heel, bring them to a cobbler and they may be able to put a new tip on for you. The ones they use are a bit more rubbery so tend to last better than the original hard plastic ones.
