Shoe Shapes

[Ryla Perry]

Why does a shoe shape still show after I Wear high heeled shoes? Doesn't happen with flat shoes.

[Kwakkelde Kwak]

Shoe shapes deform your feet and raise the avatar a little. When you use flat shoes the deformation is marginal at most, with high heels the deformation is very obvious. When the deformation is small, the (flat) shoe will cover your entire foot, with a high heel your feet will stick out of your shoe as you noticed.

Pretty much all shoe merchants offer an alpha mask to use with their items. Those will make your feet invisible. In the past so-called invisiprims were used, but with the currents viewers they look like big blobs on your feet.
