I recently bought a pair of leather, pointed 4 inch heel boots from New Look. They have quite a chunky heel, but when I walk in them my 4 smaller toes kill. I tried to distribute my weight differently but it makes me walk strangely. These are my first pair of heels so is this normal for my small toes to hurt and is there a way to prevent it?

I am wearing heels instead of sneakers for the first time in years. I’m trying to use good posture but my gait feels really off. I seem to be naturally stepping first on my heels, then moving my weight forward onto my toes, as if I’m still wearing sneakers. Do you naturally put your weight more towards the front of your feet instead of all over or your heels when you wear high heels? I love my shoes but don’t know how to walk in them!
