#32As a 5'6 man with a girlfriend who is 5'7, anyone insecure enough to buy these shoes needs to start looking at their priorities in life. Just be you, own it man!
My best buddy is about 5'4" and a bit round too, but I have never sensed for an instant that he feels hampered by or insecure about it. He's a smart guy and happy with himself. He has my admiration, as do you.

Does appearance influence what strangers think of you? Yes. Have studies shown shorter men have less success in dating and professional lives, everything else being equal? Yes.

Shoes like these aren't new either, they've been around for as long as I can remember. I'll posit that you probably have met someone who wore these, and you never noticed it.

It bugged me more when I was younger, but its such a petty thing to be worried about.
Also as a rounder gentleman, Id much rather continue to lose weight and get in shape than worry that I'm kinda short.
