Everything from what you can do with the doll to how she stores, photographs and wears over time shifts because of this small detail on the spec sheet. Get to grips with the difference before you order and you've taken one of the simplest steps towards evading an annoying purchase. What Makes a Foot a Standing Foot It's an uncomplicated difference at heart. Standing feet have metal bolts embedded in the soles, which allow the doll to stand upright without support. The doll can only sit or lie down on non-standing feet, which lack these bolts, and trying to stand her will damage the feet. It all hinges on the bolts, with everything else following from whether they're present or not. What Non-Standing Feet Can't Do Standing feet are crucial for photography and display. A doll that stands unaided can be photographed full-length with no visible supports, and displayed in a corner, a doorway, or anywhere else she needs to be upright. This opens up a wide range of poses and settings that aren't possible with non-standing feet, and it's the principal reason most photographers specify standing feet when ordering. Water Absorption Leads to Rust Showering is another case where standing feet are important. A shower with your doll only works if she can stand, as lying her down in one is both impractical and dangerous. The standing feet give her stability in a wet environment, and the metal bolts ensure that the feet don't absorb water the way non-standing feet would. This is a real safety consideration, because water absorption in non-standing feet can lead to rust and eventual structural failure. The Source of a Lot of Damaged Dolls Shower use deserves more detail, being the source of a lot of damaged dolls. Non-standing feet have foam or filler material inside the ankle, and that material absorbs water when it gets wet. Fundamentally unfixable once it starts, the rust the water causes in the metal skeleton inside the leg takes weeks or months to become evident. Careful or not, a doll with non-standing feet should never be in the shower; the water will find its way in whatever precautions you take. Storing Her Standing Up Some setups make standing feet easier to store as well. No hanging hook or storage case is needed to store a doll with standing feet upright in a corner, a wardrobe, or a storage cabinet. Without room for a hanging setup, this is a space-efficient choice, and for anyone who wants to display the doll rather than keep her hidden it's a solid one. Standing feet make visible and accessible storage possible, which suits some customers best. The Disadvantage: Somewhat Pricier and Heavier The drawback of standing feet is that they're slightly more pricey and marginally heavier. Metal bolts add a small amount of weight to the doll. Manufacturing is also more involved. The upshot is a cost that's normally a few percent higher than a doll with non-standing feet. The difference is small, and it's typically worth the additional cost, but it's worth knowing about if you're purchasing on a really tight budget. The Other Disadvantage: Evident Bolts Bare feet can make the bolts visible, which is the other disadvantage. In photos, the bolts might show on a doll wearing high-heeled shoes or open-toed footwear, and some purchasers find this distracting. This is a small aesthetic issue, and it can be solved by covering the feet with closed shoes or by choosing footwear that hides the bolts, so it's not a reason to steer clear of standing feet totally. The Case for Non-Standing Feet Non-standing feet are cheaper, lighter, and perfectly fine if the doll will only be used in bed and not displayed standing or taken in the shower. Save on the feet, spend on articulated hands or a better wig; non-standing feet are perfectly acceptable when the doll will mainly be in a bed or on a sofa. Buyers who know what they want can make this choice totally validly. Softness as a Selling Point Also, non-standing feet are somewhat softer and more elastic, something some customers find more comfortable to touch. A subtle difference, not normally enough to justify the choice on its own, this is still worth knowing about if you're specifically looking for maximum softness. The feet of non-standing dolls feel more like the rest of her and less as if there's a hard core inside. Don't Test the Limits Purchasers at times forget what kind of feet they have and attempt to stand the doll in any case, which is the huge risk with non-standing feet. A usual error, and a damaging one: the doll's weight is too much for the foam inside the ankle, which will tear or collapse. Because the feet have been permanently damaged, the result is a doll that can no longer stand even if you attempt to support her. Remember that non-standing feet are non-standing, if you're purchasing them, and don't be tempted to test their limits. Decide Before You Order There's also the question of whether standing feet can be retrofitted to a doll that doesn't have them. In short, no, not readily. New hardware has to be installed by cutting into the feet if you add the bolts afterwards, and it's expensive and regularly doesn't work as well as the original, since the bolts are embedded in the soles during manufacturing. Thinking of buying a doll without standing feet, but might want them later? Better to acquire a doll with standing feet in the first place than to attempt to add them later. Bed or Sofa Only: Non-Standing Is Fine Selecting between standing and non-standing feet? The functional advice is straightforward. For photographing the doll, displaying her standing, or employing her in the shower, you need standing feet. Only want her in bed or on a sofa, and don't care about display? Non-standing feet are perfectly acceptable. Unsure which to choose? The small additional cost of standing feet buys you the safer choice, with no limit on what the doll can do. Why Male Dolls Need Standing Feet More There's also a gender consideration worth mentioning. Male dolls tend to advantage more than female dolls from standing feet, as they're heavier and more tough to store in any other way. If a 45kg male doll can't stand, he has to be stored lying down, which puts pressure on the body and needs more space. It's a real benefit for customers who don't have a lot of room that standing feet let male dolls store upright. Weighing Looks Against Function A final note is worth making on the aesthetic difference between standing and non-standing feet. On standing feet the bottom is slightly harder thanks to the bolts, and that can show when the doll is barefoot. Hard soles look somewhat industrial, which some buyers find less aesthetically satisfying, especially on dolls with delicate features. Preferred by some purchasers, non-standing feet are softer and more natural-looking. If barefoot photos are a priority, factor this trade-off into your decision; it only matters if you're photographing the doll barefoot. A Quick Routine Check One more angle worth considering: maintenance. Standing feet need to be checked periodically to make sure the bolts are secure, because a loose bolt can damage the foot or the ankle, and a bolt that falls out completely can cause the doll to collapse. Check the bolts every few months by gently twisting them, and if they feel loose, tighten them with the appropriate tool. There's no hardware to come loose with non-standing feet, so they don't have this issue and are a little lower-maintenance in the long run. Displaying a Standing Doll on a Hard Floor Distinct surfaces change how the doll stands, thanks to the bolts. Stable on carpet, the doll advantages from bolts that grip well. On silky hard flooring in particular, the bolts can slip, and the doll may need additional support to stay upright. Putting a small mat or a grippy pad under the feet is worth considering on a hard surface, as it avoids sliding. Worth knowing about if you're displaying a doll with standing feet on a hard floor; non-standing feet don't have it, the doll not standing in the first place. Barefoot Photos and Exact Proportions Ultimately, there's something that's often overlooked: how standing feet affect the doll's overall proportions. Bolts mean a small quantity of additional length in the foot, which can marginally change how the doll looks in barefoot photos. It's worth knowing about if you're planning to photograph the doll barefoot and you care about precise proportions, though this is a subtle effect and generally invisible in shoes. Somewhat shorter and more natural-looking, non-standing feet don't have this effect, since they don't have the bolts. Who Should Skip Standing Feet Most customers should find standing feet worth the extra cost; they open up posing, display, storage, and shower choices that non-standing feet don't. That's the bottom line. Only customers certain that the doll will stay in bed, never displayed or photographed standing, should skip them. For all other purchasers, standing feet are the better choice and among the simplest upgrades to justify.
