ISO 19958:2003规定了一种测试方法，用于测量从鞋跟底部分离顶部所需的力。该试验适用于已连接顶部的高跟鞋（已从整双鞋上拆下），也适用于仅连接顶部的高跟鞋，在某些情况下，适用于带有单独推入式顶部的高跟鞋。所有高跟鞋，除了顶部由钢制插口连接的加固细长高跟鞋和内置叠层高跟鞋外，都可以通过该方法进行测试。

ISO 19958:2003 specifies a test method for measuring the force required to detach the top piece from the underside of the shoe heel. The test is applicable to heels with the top piece already attached which have been removed from complete shoes, to heels alone with the top piece attached and, in some instances, to heels with separate push-in top pieces. All heels, except reinforced slender heels with top pieces attached by steel spigots and built stacked heels, can be tested by this method.
