These I don't like since this is supposed to be a otherwise (semi) practical cat burglar suit. It's also inconsistent between artists for this same costume.

Honestly I find it difficult to think of Catwoman without heels. Practically they are ludicrous but visually I feel like she must have them.

I'm the same way. Off the top of my head, there are just a few characters that I visually don't like in heels (Jean, Elektra, Psylocke - Though I hate Psylocke in general, so she can be wearing crocs for all I care ).

I can't turn on the practicality argument in my head for just part of a costume.

For this one I wouldn't mind if I hadn't seen a flat boot version that I thought looked better. But whatever, she's got enough absurd acrobatic skills the footwear doesn't matter.

Catwoman - since the damn era of the goggles - hasn't worn heels. This is just a venture back to them. So I can give/take her with heels. But I do totally understand what you all are saying.

Black Cat doesn't wear heels. Since I think of her and Catwoman being similar, unless Catwoman is wearing one of her flirty/super sexy looks (Balent, Purple/Green Dress) - I prefer her in flats. Not a deal breaker though.

And heels wouldn't bother me. She had them to start. Then they took them off. Now in the movies she has a platform. They won't bother me as long as they look good. I also don't have an issue with them when a character has super strength or a flyer - they don't seem as cumbersome to me. Now a hand-to-hand fighter like Black Canary, Elektra, Psylocke, etc should NOT be wearing a heel. Boots/flats only.
Not sure who's doing the sculpting, but the details in her tresses are fierce. I love her in heels. I know it's impractical but the beauty it creates in the arch of a woman's leg is stunning.

Back in the 70s and early to mid 80s it seems that all super heroines were drawn with high heels

Looking back on it you kind of have to think how in the world did they fight crime like that but you also realized it was a comic book.

It seemed that after the Crisis that’s when the high heels and went away. I guess along with all of the parallel earths the high heels were also eliminated

Well yeah, heels just aren't stable when you make things bigger up top. Throws off the balance. I'm obviously referring to pouches and guns. Nothing else, nothing at all.
