Okay, a good watch, but not worth it just to see some boots, if you like star trek, then it is worth the watch.

Absolutely. There are a few scenes I think with boots in, but that's not really a reason to watch it. Some of the computer animated space scenes are amazing, as good as anything commercially made. The acting and the script on the other hand...

Slightly off topic, but for those that have never seen it, the Finnish Star Trek/Babylon 5 parody, "Star Wrek: In the Pirkinning", has the female crew members wearing some very nice thigh high boots.

Punitive Rancho and Pleaser Femme (BBLoverEric just beat me to it!)

I'm interested in the difference too. I have a pair of Femme shoes and I find them harder to stand in than ballet shoes. I wonder if the pony boots are any easier.

Your seller is "no longer a registered user of eBay". Doesn't look good to me.

Teri's Booted Up Blog gives the story. The owner Tony died in June and the family don't want to carry on the business which had been having financial difficulties in the last year.

It's a shame, their shoes and boots used to be very good. My avatar shoes are Hot Peppers.

And just so she doesn't feel left out, the show's presenter, Claudia Winkleman, in some strappy sandals that I know some of you will like:

Ah, Ms Bunton, who has been wearing some really high heels recently. Here's a few screen caps from the Strictly Come Dancing behind the scenes show:

Some nice additions to your Flikr album since you first posted the link. Thanks.

Picture 3... Wow, she is stunning. Some nice pictures there in your Flickr album, thanks for sharing.

Yes, it's a members video. I became a member of her site a short while ago, her excursions in ballet heels are amazing. I doubt there's many people in the world who can walk as well as her in ballets and other extreme heels.

I'd say it was the buckles. Black shiny pants is one thing but those big silver buckles really stand out! Wow! Glad you enjoy them

Really?? I never noticed but I did see it only once and don't know a single person who owns it. Think you could get a snapshot of it?

Mmm, yes, my favorite scene of that film. About the only good bit of the film really

The two guys standing guard are wearing pony boots: Click for full frame pics...

Other things of interest during that scene:

Just at the start of the scene, the camera pans past this: Whte heels and white rope...

And then there's this high heeled pump that isn't on a foot: Bottom of the frame below Morpheus...

BananaShoes who sell the Pleaser/Devious range. Never purchased from them but they seem to have an ok reputation.

Divine (the Kinky Boot factory), they sell the Qualifetish range, more expensive but top quality.

Was out wearing my newest knee-high platform boots:

A little more of the boot, I forgot to photo the whole boot:

My camera doesn't like faces (that's my story and I'm sticking to it!):

Those are nice. I didn't know Pleaser did a rubber boot.

Leatherworks do several, I don't know if any of theirs are all rubber. I have a pair of their ankle boots that they no longer list which are rubber with the leather toe area.

I'm always surprised when I'm offered assistance packing my groceries. Being young, able bodied and otherwise unencumbered, I'd have to be too lazy or incompetant to not do it myself. I guess the staff are just taught to ask everyone.

Never heard of them before. I would just hope they are rather better than phpbbforfree.com - they have over 50,000 forums and no backups, very poor support and when upgrades are required, don't be surprised when the entire site goes offline for up to two weeks!

Anybody know how you get the Quick Time plug-in for FireFox. I can't see that last video.

It's always a shame when a forum loses valued members like JeffB and Bubba136. Even worse when we don't know why they're gone. I tend to think the worst. I hope I'm wrong.

lil_saz,

The makers, Pleaser, call it a 6" heel. Domina 442 here.

That's a good price you've found. As long as the shipping isn't exorbitant then it's still cheaper than you could get from a UK supplier like Alternative Footwear (who list it under New Styles, just over half way down the page).

Those are nice, I have similar looking in black and white and they were a lot more than €15. Nice to find something like that in a more 'regular' shoe shop. I've not had the opportunity to do any shoe shopping in France other than some casual window shopping, which is a shame as I've seen many lovely pairs of shoes and boots just crying out to be bought

Wow! Nice choice for your first entry into the world of ballet boots.

im kinheels and im in the south west area.

Nice to have you here vee6.

On the subject of laces, mine snapped on my Qualifetish boots. I haven't been able to find the correct type yet (thin round black, about 3m long) but in the meantime got hold of some thicker yellow ones that I think look quite good: (Click for bigger)

You could also have a look at model "Revenge 08" made by Pleaser.

Link to the shoes on Pleaser's website.

Googling for Revenge 08 seems to turn up lots of stockists.
