Pumped

I few times I have left wearing heels. I normally don't go out, but once in a while my wife and I just got for a drive and we get dressed up a bit and I wear spike heel boots of pumps. We have a detached garage and the neighbors house is right next to our driveway so no missing me walking out if they happen to be looking. If they have noticed, nothing has been said as we do visit with them a few times a month so it is not like the chance never comes up.

I posted a full body pic in a dress with fake breasts, it got the axe. Others here have posted pics wearing skirts that did not get the axe. I am not sure where the line is, perhaps men wearing skirts and no boobs is ok, but boobs get the axe? Men post pics of heels with stockings and pantyhose al the time. It is confusing!

Yep, men's 29" waist, and size 29 in the 710's. Like I said earlier, measure your hips and buy by hip size.

I size them by hip size, although my waist is pretty close too. They ride right above the hips so IMO waist measurement is senseless. They fit snug almost to the ankles. The ankles have a bit of room and I am glad they do or I would never get them off! I buy Levi's 710 jeans on Amazon. Amazon Levis 710 If you have thick legs and narrow hips you probably will not get them on! I am fairly slim. I buy a size 7 or 29 and wear a 29" waist in men's jeans. My legs are not very thick. When I buy women's thigh or knee boots they often fit loose. It is tough to wear a size 10 women's boot when they size the leg for the typical woman with a size 10 foot.

Do you want tight jeans? Levis 710 Super Skinny, tight to the ankle, mid rise. I have a couple pairs.

Well, crap, I thought I was in the "new shoes" thread! Getting old is a bitch!

Ran across a deal on a pair of Steve Madden Brenna platform heels. Yep, another black pair of pumps! Steve Madden Brenna

Both my mom and dad are old school conservatives. I had a conversation about men wearing women's clothing with my mom. Some show with men cross dressing on TV triggered it. I thought she was going to explode! Nothing but hate and vile coming out of her mouth. I mentioned I didn't care what people wear and if a man wanted to wear high heels or a dress I could care less. All I got back was a death stare! My dad is equally closed on the subject. Any mention of alternate lifestyles and he just gets mean. I mentioned to him I knew a couple gays and I can not repeat what he said! If I wore heels around him I think it would end up in a hospital ER!

I didn't wear heels at all yesterday, and I wear heels pretty much every day. My excuse? My 90 year old dad came over for a visit and I don't want to push his heart any harder than it is already!!🤣

Ok, thanks. The square toe kills it for me! I would buy a pair with a pointed toe.

No luck finding them! Could you please post a link? I just bought these! Used from eBay, but they were like new. Steven Madden Brenna.

What are the boots on the left? And where do I buy them?!

Well, I imagine that 95% of shoe sales are size 41'ish and lower. It does suck to be a person with larger flippers. I am a nice size ten, or 40-41 depending on the manufacturer.

Yes, it is terrible! They did the change last summer some time. I was about sick when I saw the high heels were maybe on row and sneakers have taken over the store. for what ever it was worth, (probably nothing!), I wrote an e-mail to DSW and told them I was very disappointed. I told them I could buy sports shoes in any store, everyone carried them, but DSW had been my go to for high heels. They had been filling a niche that nobody in our area filled. I suppose they are trying to stay in business and high heels don't sell as fast as sneaker.

I don't know about skill, but like I mentioned earlier in the thread, my ankles will just not flex far enough! I can slip on the 5" heels, try to walk in them and I can barely lock my knees straight. The muscles in my legs don't seem to care as I don't have sore muscles while or after wearing them. Pretty sure I have simply reached the end of the range of motion in my ankles. But I do continue to wear them in hopes something changes!
