There are so many different types of leggings for different uses. I have compression thermal legging for skiing, thicker ones for "pants", thin nylons for cool summer nights, velour for warmth , .... I have MANY leggings.

You can now buy mens sizes, called Unisex Leggings, but for me leggings are hit and miss. It is not just size. As I said before I do not like the nylon-type kind, and kind of have to feel them to get the cotton ones I want. My daughters said I like "inside leggings", but even that moniker is hit or miss. I was at the store the other day getting pantyhose with my wife, and I i noticed in that section there was a lot of "leggings" as they were labeled, but they sure looked like black pantyhose to me. Very, very sheer. But then the ones in the women's section are more nylon than cotton. At the dollar stores they tend to be cotton like, but not always. It is frustrating because about 50% of the leggings I get, I never wear because they are not the type I like. I even try reordering the ones I do like by Brand Name and Product Name but most times the brand is no longer being made. As for the unisex designation; it's about time. These things are super comfy. No reason for the ladies to have them all to themselves. I will, though she is an extra-introvert if there ever is such a thing. Very shy... That being said, I was on here a long time ago, I think. I say that because it was a high heels forum that I belonged too, but the atmosphere was a bit different then. Not better. Not worse. Just different. I could not remember my username or password so I started fresh so nothing nefarious on my end of things on that. It would have been back in 2005-2011ish. If this site did not exist then, it might have been a different high heels site. But no matter, I am here now and hope to contribute in a meaningful way.

Hi everyone. I'm interested in exploring the psychological side of wearing high heels. Does anyone know of any good books or research studies on this topic? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Haha just the chucking the sneakers part. In other words it was a risky move.

My favorite christmas mani was what I called "Zebra on Christmas Acid". A gel design on my fingers/polish on my toes. Black base, then thin zebra stripes in white, red, and green. Envied by both men and women. Currently my toes are white with sprakle red and sparkle green candy cane stripes. One sparkle red and one sparkle green big toe, nail artist choice.

I think the worst scenario I see is weddings. So many people are not used to wearing high heels, then for pictures they go on challenging ground like cobblestone, grass, or other wet areas and it's really a struggle for the people wearing them. I never laugh at people that struggle because its just all-new for them and it saddens me that they equate high heels to pain and embarrassment.

I get clear gel manis, but about 99% of the time, I have color on my toes. I like switching around colors, but sometimes give my nail tech “dealer’s choice.” I’m seeing her for my (overdue) monthly mani-pedi later today, last evening she texted me “advising” that she has “ideas” for a Christmas-themed pedi…

My wife tried wearing toe rings, but for some reason she just did not like them. That was too bad because I find them attractive. She does however, wear an anklet when she is dressed up. Whether for church, a date, or just a nice dinner, she typically wears one of her many ankle bracelets. In reading through the replies, I do see that gold is the preferred choice for many wearers on here, but for some reason, me and her prefer silver. We do have some gold ones, and will wear them on occasion, but 9 out of 10 times, when picking out an anklet, we get the silver one. She does wear polish on her toes, but while I prefer her to wear fire engine red, what I call "whore red" just to tease her, honestly she mixes it up and it could be wearing any color. This includes different colors on each toe some days. They typically are symmetrical in color from her left foot to right, but her big toes might be red, her middle toes green, and her pinkie toe purple, and the other toes different colors.
