My wife says 8 1/2-9 would fit her well and wants to know if you were planning on a high-arch or if they would go all the way to the ground like a platform heel. If it was open-toe and open heal or fully encapsulating. She also wanted to know if you could do them integral to a front only greave and is now debating if they should lace up the back shibari style, have a bunch of black leather and buckles or maybe be mounted to high-heel riding boots. You triggered her shoe fetish.
(or I did just to watch her head spin). If you have some concept art you might have a buyer who will just send you shoes to make fit.

(If I buy my wife armor that means I can buy myself more armor to keep it fair, right?)

My wife said size 8 to 9 would be a good size.
This is what I had in mind to work with.
Iron Dwarf sent me the titanium.
Very thin gauge and light weight.
I think it will be perfect.

I am the shoe manager for a professional ballet company, and the most common size amongst the 21 women I work with is a 7-7.5. Of course, these are career dancers and they tend towards the petite, but as a demographic of high heel wearers, it's as good as any.

Thank you for your input.
This is what I selected for the first prototype.
http://cgi.ebay.com/CLASSY-PATENT-4-Hig ... 6528062084I like the anticlastic flair of the leading edge on the foot metacarpals.
I can accent that and make it work with sabatons.

Are your boots period pointed style?
Pointed sabations do not look right on modern army boots.

Yes, that was my inspiration.
I am finding the titanium a tough nut to crack.
I am working on an alloy hammer that form fits the toe tool.
