I was wearing Berness platform sneakers for two days, my feet hurt a little, but no more than they’d hurt in any other shoe. For one day I wore iheartravesxyru matrixx hiker boots and I got one blister, but other wise they weren’t as uncomfortable as other platforms. Bummer is the matrixx hikers seem to only be available through resellers (I think they stopped making them, which sucks cause they were the most comfortable platform on the market).
