thighhighs

Even more boots...

All of them I bought yesterday so they have not arrived yet...

These 4 pair costed me less then $90 on eBay, all new except for the last pair.

First pair in a rigid canvas/leather style with a sole perfect for our snow:

Second pair a like the first, but in a bit smoother design:

Third pair, I couldn't resist for only £12, on big sale!

Ok, not real leather but the look...

And the last in a vintage style of the 80's (only $4).

Waterproof but stylish, also perfect for the snow and melting later on...

Yeah... I might have done it too in New York but not in stockholm...

I just received these from my last post (I did mention I bid on them?):

They are warm like hell and very comfortable.

I also recevied these; very sharp and nice dark brown cowboy boots:

Still waiting for these to show up:

These should be fully lined and really nice looking.

And of course these will soon show too:

.

I'd go with Dr. Shoe, bring them all

Personally I prefer stilettos and the color on the #1 are really nice.

But #2 is my choice.

They have a sharp heel and a nice toe-area, making the foot look not too long and not too short.

Also I like the straps, discreet but fashionable.

And as JeffB suggests, with pants tucked into them of course!

.

I've found some thing on the internet that I actually liked.

I spent 3 hours scanning through ebay.com/de/co.uk and Tradera.com for some boots that I like.

I've found these:

these should work well in the winter, they have a rubber sole and it looks as they are rather rough so they won't slip.

I'm also bidding on these beauties:

And in my dreams, I'd be walking around in Stockhom in these:

I'd really love to do that, but... I wouldn't have the guts to do it...

but these looks good I think. The are lined with a soft teddylining so they should also be warm in the winter:

Any comments?

Here the turtleneck comes again, with another pair of boots (with 3" heels and almondtoe). This time under the pants, sorry but I have to clean them sometimes... also my flat heel boots are at the repairer to change the heel tip. Will be back on thursday....

.

Ok,

todays outfit at work.

JeffB requested a turtleneck (ok, for the flat boots-posting, but that will come later this week...) so here it is with the high heels instead.

.

My usual luck... thanks chris100575. Offer still stands. .

Thighhighs - thank you for sharing. I'm really digging your looks! You manage to certainly pull it off! I also admire how you're freestyling into work on almost a daily basis! Your style and attitude is extremely positive! Kudos!

Thanks Heel-D.

The trick might be just that; freestyling at work. This (at least for me) is a world of it's own.

I'm working in a company with 20 people, I've been there for 20 years and everybody knows me and has already gotten their opinion about me. Some of them knows my interest for shoes (I'm also into sneakers and have had maybe 100 pairs during these years) and others must at least have supected it.

At work, your rather 'safe' from sudden surprises and in a familiar surrounding. For those of you who feel their work is your second family, it might be a good place to start wearing heels.

.

Ok, here we have todays outfit at work:

.

->NewfieGuyInHeels Then I understand, but that extra inch might be what I saw in the pic. I fully understand you can't have pants in different length to fit different heels. I know what your talking about. Still, the picture looks good. .

And I say thanks you again JeffB. I need to find more outfits that works with these boots and the black jeans, so it might come more pictures later this week...

Thanks JeffB, I've been trying to improve it and I'm happy with how it looks right now. Just have to find some more matching clothes since I do need to wash them from time to time... NewfieGuyInHeels That looks much better with the black pants instead. (Aren't they just a bit too long or is it just the picture?) About the vamp, that's one of the reasons I wear boots instead of pumps/heels, then I don't have the problem. But I agree with JeffB, try some knee high stockings, it will probably feel better then thin socks... .

Well, as you can see, it's not me in person, but I think it's me in spirit. It's a sketch from the internet (sorry if I've offended any copyrights...) on my favourit boot by Bronx. They represent the ideal and perfect design of a boot, in my opinion. .

Yes kneehighs, you are correct. I have a few different belts, but in jeans, they can't be too wide so it narrows it down a bit... I have a bracelet (ok it's a thicker chain) so too much accessories might just push it into being something else that's not really me. I've been in love with female footwear since early teenager but never really like the crossdressing. I have tried a few times and enjoyed it and really understand why people do it, but it's not for me. Glad you liked the boots too. Just want to say that you've been inspiring for me with your activity here in this forum and I'm looking forward to reading more from you

As posted in another thread;

This is not exactly an outing in the boots, but more of an 'inning' (?).

This is my outfit for work so far this week:

So, now I have the Bronx on. Only indoors so far, but that's not really my fault.

We've had 25 cm of snow this weekend and today it was -13 degrees Celsius. Not the right time for walking in these boots.

When will they come up with a pair of nice looking winter-lined high heeled boots? So far I've only seen some vintage boots but not any new ones...

.

thighhighs those are definitely some modern and fashionable boots. I'll bet the girls love them. Maybe you could spice up your outfit even more with an equally edgy belt/belt buckle?

Thanks kneehighs.

Well I might do that.

I just don't want to step too close to crossdressing or looking gay. "I'm only in it for the footwear."

That's more my style, ordinary men clothing with womens boots.

Hi,

todays outfit at work:

Thanks JeffB. I like the tabasco color a bit more, since they are kind of exotic and will shurely draw some attention. But, these brown will probably be easier to match in a daily outfit. Anyone who knows if NEXT usually have sales and if so, what time of the year? I'm looking for them in 40 (or 41) so if someone see them on sale and are willing to buy them and ship to Sweden, please drop a line!

Hi all.

No update on the street heeling in the Bronxboots.

But an update for those of you in UK;

so far I've only found the Bronx Scarlet as calf boots, but I just happened to brows through NEXT's homepage (http://order.next.co.uk/page.asp?b=X39&p=274&o=1) and what did I find?

The boots in chocolate, hidden in a very dark picture and not a word of what brand or anything like that.

They're only referred to as 'Chocolate Buckle Long Boots' and are sold for £90. They come in size 37-42.

And from what I understand, there are many NEXT-stores around UK where these should be available.

Sorry though that NEXT doesn't ship to Sweden....

Anyone familiar with if NEXT use to have sales, where you might find these boots a bit cheaper? If so, anyone interested in buying them and then sending them to Sweden? (Prepaid of course)

Anyway, here they are in an enhanched version from NEXT-site

Wow, nice looking pumps. I love them. Where did you buy them? .

Now get out there in the Bronx boots....!

Hey man, I'm just as eager as you are.

I will, I will, it was very close today but it rained too much and I don't want to ruin them by wading through puddles.

I must find a time before the rain turns into snow, because they aren't made for slippery roads.

Very Very nice boots Thighhighs and very sensible to wear them outside your trousers. It's a look that I think could well become more common on men - (flattish heeled boots outside trousers).

Thanks Fog.

They're made to be outside the trouser, and they look as ordinary as any mensboots, when worn under the trousers. That's too dull and boring.

And regarding my little outing above, for those of you who is thinking about getting outside with heels, don't let me scare you off.

As you read, the boots with low heel got a lot of attention, but that was mainly because they were outside and fully visible. If I had covered them, no one would have looked.

If you'd like to get out in heels, start low, I know it might sound boring not to use your favourite 5" pumps, but it's all about building up your confidence inside your head and knowing that no one is going to kill you because of what you wear (at least not if you stay out of the darkest alleys ).

Choose a pair of shoes/boots with just a little feminine touch to start with; maybe a cowboy-styled boot with a THIN sole,

Or a designed cuban-heel with a little more curves than the mens-version

Or a low heel with pointy toes (like in the pics)

Or just some cowboyboots with hard heels so you'll get used to the sound.

It's all up to you

Thanks JeffB. We'll see what happens on my way home. The morning rides are usually so full of people who wished they did stay an hour longer in bed, and now try to compensate for that on their way to work. I mean, not too many are fully awake to grasp everything they see... Also, there are a lot more people in the evenings, so... BTW. JeffB, it's hard to see on the photos above, but I'm wearing the new tight black jeans with the boots... .

Ok, still haven't worn my Bronx outside yet.

(See http://www.hhplace.org/discuss/guys/6983-i_couldnt_resist_i_bought_bronx_boots.html)

But I have the lower heels on a daily basis, with the pants stuck inside them. They do have a feminine style so it's kind of funny to wear them too.

Sorry for the poor quality, but bad lighting in the subway combined with an old cellphone...

I usually take my car to work, which is kind of boring since no one will see the boots. Today I went by bus and subway instead.

I actually got a lot of second glances at them. It's kind of interesting to see how many girls that actually are looking at the footwear. A lot of the younger people of today are very fashion-aware.

I spent 8 minutes waiting for the subway and of the perhaps 25 'younger' females, 20 of them looked at;

1 - my face

2 - the footwear

3 - a second (or third) look at the footwear again.

I really enjoyed those who tried to pass by as usual, but their eyes were locked on my boots and stayed on them as they passed, looking from the corner of their eyes.

No one stopped or said anything.

To follow the trend above, I bet you've also noticed a lot of females are watching other female's shoes.

I had a girl beside me on the platform today and she looked at each shoe/boot of the woman who passed us. Note though that se didn't look at ANY boys shoes! I had a perfect view of her eyes and this was very fun too see. She had just about the same taste as me, I recon, since her eyes stayed longer on the nicer boots and just jumped of the uglier.

She hadn't seen my boots (probably due to the above fact) so when my train came, I stepped in front of her so she hardly could miss me, sorry that I had my back against her so I couldn't see her, but...

.

Thank you both, and I welcome you also. Both of you joined during the last months. -> skoamine Nice to see you have an understanding wife. Start slow at home and learn to walk in the heels. Then when you feel confident in walking in them, you might take a short walk somewhere where nobody knows you, together with your wife (?). Then, it's just to keep on walking. The biggest problem you have, that stops you from walking outside, is in your mind. Once you feel confident, it will show and you'll step outside and wonder what the heck was stopping you before I must confess that I haven't yet been wearing the Bronx highheeled boots outside my new black pants, mostly because I've had arrangements where the heels would cause problems. (Ie forrest walks and so on...) .

Funny you should mention that. Yesterday I saw a young lady wearing rust red knee boots over jeans. The color was similar to the Tabasco boots. So it can be done.

You see... there's always a time and place for Tabasco color...

If I buy the boots, then I might find that time/place myself...

If I don't buy the boots, I will never know if I can find the time/place...

Ahh.. I don't know... I'll sent an inquire for the shipping costs to Sweden, then we'll see. I'll have to pay tax and custom too so...
