Yes no one outside the two people directly involved can know what the score is, and even then each of them will have their own sincerely held opinion.

Ah, the old shorts and high heels question! Once upon a time it was a question that wasn't even asked. Yes, Daisy Duke was on the TV every single week in shorts and heels, but nobody outside of a club, or maybe a car show, dressed like that in real life. Then suddenly it was ok, and even I can do it. For me personally, if I'm going to wear shorts, I'm going to wear sandals. Though I've modeled them before, I would never wear an enclosed shoe with shorts, unless I'm playing tennis. If I'm actually working outside, I'm covered head to toe (for sun protection), so it's not about the heat, it's about the style. I do usually wear open toe mules with shorts, and they do tend to have a wooden heel. But not always. I don't often wear stilettos with shorts, and I'm not 100% sure why. Perhaps stilettos with shorts still have that "clubby" look about them that I don't necessarily want to wear out and about under normal circumstances. Wedges also seem to work very well with shorts. For some reason, wedges seem to take the edge off the look. Oddly enough, I do not have all that many pictures of me in shorts, probably because I've been doing this church outfit of the week things for some time, and I still will not wear shorts to church. Even though many people do this nowadays, it just seems wrong to me. Especially when I'm on the livestream camera that gets saved forever and ever. So I'll find some quick examples. I don't do long shorts, because they simply do not look good on me. I don't have a lot of real estate to waste covering it up.

Most of the negative comments seemed to centre around things in his personal life rather than his heels - not knowing the backstory I didn’t understand the comments, but the boots did not attract much negativity. I agree that there are probably a lot of guys who envy his freedom to wear what he pleases instead of being bound by rigid conformity

Could only view the bottom interview with Scheana, Brock's wife. Good for you Brock! You like they way you look and feel in the boots, and are not bothered by negative comments. Nine out of ten criticisms are probably from frustrated guys that secretly wish they had the guts to rock the boots!

Just some examples. And for the summer "Mess with your mind," knee high JS Stilettos, shorts, and Hawaiian shirt. Aloha

I think it's awesome he's wearing heels! Some of the comments on the instagram post seemed surprised but open to the image of him in heels. I like this REEL with him walking in heels with his wife: https://www.instagram.com/p/C6yxqcSrFAH/ And this 30 second clip where a podcaster(I guess it's his wife) asks about his heels. She likes his heels and rationalizes multiple reasons why his heels are a good thing: https://www.instagram.com/p/C6UkrYiyLfr/

Interesting question - I would tend to think that it really depends in the shorts. Personally speaking, I would tend to think that black pumps may not be best matched with denim shorts of just about any style or length. For something like that, I would think a pair of heels with a wood heel and platform might work. As I have no idea of your style, maybe a pair of wedges with "business" shorts?

This is kinda late, but it might be useful to others. The way to go is electroforming. Make a wax blank (maybe cast from the original, or carve the wax to suit) then electroplate with nickel to the desired thickness. Melt out the wax, and voila! There are many places that will do this for you, you just provide the wax blank.
