I'd be so tempted to get this. If only they were my size... and perhaps if they knocked a few 0s of the price tag...

As I said, they are a bit of a snug fit, so probably slightly small. However, they've stretched a bit with wear and are fine on my size 8 feet. I've walked many miles in them and they are very comfortable.
Ah, OK. Thanks. I wasn't sure if you meant the size 8s were a bit snug because you normally wear a 8.5.

I didn't make them. Bought them off Ebay. They're still available but they go up to size 8 and that's snug. £9.99 plus p&p - I paid nearly £30 for the first pair but they're still going strong. Brand is Spot On, which do several styles with more 'masculine' looks: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SALE-LADIES-SPOT-ON-BROWN-BLACK-HIDDEN-WEDGE-BOOTS-WITH-BUCKLE-DETAIL-F50333/281462542509?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=581195277320&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
Yes, I wish he had commented, really. It seems 'coming out' is a difficult thing...
How is the sizing on these? Are they true to size?

I bought myself my first pair of Casadei Blades. They are suede in slate gray ("Ardesia").
My birthday is also around this time of the year, so I think of this more as for my birthday.

If anyone is handy at creating 3D models of shoes (those pink ones would be nice), I wonder if it would be possible to send it to Shapeways, and have them print it for you:If anyone knows of a custom manufacturer which could reproduce the plastic covered metal shoes in the flicker links, I would be interested in buying several pairs.
Or possibly splitting the costs of having some lasts made to make these shoes?
They do support a variety of materials, including stainless steel:

Though I'm not sure how hard it would be to make them strong enough to wear.

Those are amazing. Any idea where I can get a pair?

I own mostly 3+ inch heels, and a pair of women's boots with 2 inch heels. However, I've been seriously considering ballet flats lately, as I find them extremely attractive.

I know what you mean, and I'd rather be at a crowded mall than an empty one. I feel you'll more likely to go unnoticed that way.I agree! I've been in crowded malls----BEFORE CHRISTMAS----in heels and practically no one cared. Go where you want, slav2fashion. Nobody's going to notice.
I know some of you may disagree, but I'd prefer to go unnoticed though, at least for now. Or perhaps it's OK to be noticed, as long as no one says anything, as tallguyinheels put it.
Thanks for the ideas.

Here's the process I follow:

I can post pictures of my boots if someone can show me how to post attachments here.

I do this too, but I like to do the last step(s) with a slightly wet (but not soaking) cloth.All I can say is: "Polish on, polish off!"
What I do is get a tin of Kiwi Parade Gloss (from any good shoe repairer) and a clean lint-free cloth. A yellow duster is traditionally used.
Wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth, using a brush to remove any stubborn dirt.
Next you open the tin and rub the duster in the polish so that you pick some up on the cloth. Next you go across to the boots and then rub the polish laden cloth on the part of the boot that you want to polish. It's best to do it in small circles. Keep going until all the polish has been transferred to the boot.
Repeat the process several times until the boots are polished.
I hope this helps!

Hi all, I'm new here, so sorry if this has been discussed. I did a quick search and couldn't find anything. I've been wearing high heeled boots in public for a couple of years now (not all the time, mostly on weekends, in the winter months), though I prefer not to attract attention. I just love the way the four inch heels feel on my feet, and how they affect my posture. I also love the feeling of leather hugging my calves. Here are some of the places I feel comfortable to be in in heels: * Borders (because of the carpeted floors) * Movie theaters (if the floors are carpeted) * Busy restaurants, like diners, some chain restaurants (I love these place because it's usually noisy enough that people don't notice the clicking of my heels, but I can still hear it myself if I pay attention) I'd like to be able to wear boots in more places though, and would really appreciate any ideas you may have. Thanks!

I'm pretty happy with the size of my feet, though I rather wish my calves were a little bit larger. It seems really difficult to get size 8.5/39 boots with 12.5-13 inch calves.
-
I'm conflicted. On the one hand I love the sound of heels clicking, on the other, I don't like being noticed.
-
I just love the feel of leather around my calves.

I have a pair of DSquared2 high heeled rain boots that I love. Unfortunately, it doesn't rain very often where I live.
