Jeong Nam-jin, a 31-year-old bachelor living in Doksan-dong, western Seoul, has been rocking Nike Air Force 1 mid-tops for the past three years. He's a maniac for the classic kicks, but the real reason he sports the off-white shoes is because there are few other choices that allow him to sneak in an extra few inches in height.

"I've been trying so many different dress shoes and sneakers, but this is the best pair I can insert a layer of height-increasing insoles into", said Jeong, who is 162 centimeters (5 feet, 3 inches) tall - 12 centimeters shorter than the average Korean man.

"If you pick the wrong pair of shoes like low-tops, it's hard to insert the height increasers. You can still insert them, but it's impossible to walk around", added Jeong, who's been using a variety of padding for over eight years.
