  1. Oh I think about high heels all day  and I am wearing my Bakers Makala Gold gladiator sandals with O.P.I Germanicure nail-polish on my toe nails lovely combination! as I answer this post and am thinking high heels at this second ,  Also what I am going to make for Thanksgiving Dinner? next to turkey.  I admit there are times where I daydream about strappy sandals and heels and the nice feelings I get. It does help with daily stress at times :pulsingheart:   I check this sight 4 or more times a day. I own more than enough high heels than I should. Is it a disease to think about heels or shoes too much?   If it is  I hope they never find a cure and no! I will never against my will take any so-called medicine to cure it. It is a good post and good question.   I am glad to find this site a couple of years ago by a lucky accident checking out what I thought I would never get a chance to do. too wear Strappy sandals and High heels by my choice.   Hopefully I did not get off of the subject.    I feel at times I do think about heels too much  when  I have  priorities like making sure the bills are paid and  my families needs!   It  is not a disease but a desire  and choice and one day as said in other posts I have read it will be acceptable.   I plain like to wear Feminine type footwear and will never change that especially if they fit my 10 wide feet.   Happy Thanksgiving :cool1:

  2. Rain in forecast for Halloween taking son out he will be an angry bird the red one. My strappy sandals would be ruined if I wore them out in the rain we will see hopefully rain holds off. I would like too wear my Bakers Makala Gladiator sandals with the three and a half inch wedge heel we will see  Everyone have a Happy Halloween1 :lollipop:

  3. I like to see high heels on you tube and sometimes after seeing a video the next time there is a warning must be over 18  too see a pair of white strappy sandals. Might catch a glimpse of  a panty shot under a short skirt   But I  just want to see the high heels incase I find that pair so I can buy them for-myself.  And why you tube does not take down videos of guys or gals licking dirty soles of high heels or a guy laying on the ground having a lady pushing a high heel into his face is beyond me.    I enjoy wearing my high heels and looking at my freshly painted toe nails everyday -   But that would be boring too watch on you-tube  :santa_hat: You tube is nice especially to see old cartoons from my childhood Ex-(The Herculoids)   p113fd Post on HHplace to show those pretty heels  that is what HHplace   is here for.   I do believe. Love snapshots of Strappy sandals anyday.   Censorship  will get worse. History always repeats its-self   I do not have a you-tube account myself and do not plan too   I admire a nice pair of heels   even more if they fit my feet L.O.L :pulsingheart:

  4. Personally that is  too much stress on my legs and my high heels and  no broken bones for me. I admit  the thrill would be there,  but I will just keep my self-planted on terra firma  and  look at my feet in some strappy sandals with red nail polish on!   Nice pictures but not feasible if you ask me  too risky But I would accept a new pair of high heels that fit  as a prize any-day :santa_hat:

  5.  I received my Priya sandals by Naturalizer today size 10 wide. they have 2 and a half inch heel,   leather upper and were only 30 dollars.  I think that was reasonable.   Love the 1960s type design and the chunky type heel. Seen them on a site called after 6pm.com.   I know in respect they are not that high of a heel.  I normally wear 4 inch or above heels.   I think they have a pretty look too them especially with my red toenail polish.  Ordered them on Monday standard shipping and the next day they were at my doorstep for suppertime How cool is that! Oh so comfortable :santa_hat:  I have been wearing them all day and took a walk around the block to break them in. Usually shop Payless but took a chance ordering online I hate to return things especially sandals and high heels  but they fit great  Might just buy another pair in a different color   Very versatile and do look great with me wearing shorts too boot :redface: And actually a justifiable purchase for shorter type heels for me!

  6. I like to wear my pumps barefooted. with shorts of coarse. I wear the Payless Comfortview plus pumps named Karmen there is a slight gap in the back of about a fourth of an inch, but if I went down a half size they would be way too small, the heel is about three inches so my foot does not want to pop out! In pantyhose my foot does give an indication it wants to come out but I think it would come out if I was running in them! I will give that a try tho (one day) So why not Bare legs or pantyhose. Especially around the house bare legged and shorts and my black tee-shirt comfy combination! The warmer weather has my feet alittle sticky holds my pumps on nicely.

  7. I do own one pair of flats called Avery bow flat bought from payless. They are cute, not much padding on the insole tho. I am a ten wide Had to by a 9 wide because the 10 wide I walked right out of, I can get away walking our dog Vee-Cee out side wearing these flats no-one even notices except my wifes friend Laura who says hey! Gibby is walking your dog wearing his ballerina bow flats L.O.L Flats are a change of pace and at Payless not to expensive so why not? I like my strappy 4 inch heels any day of the week! But I do not regret having this pair of flats And my wife Jennifer Thinks they look pretty on me!

  8. truthfully my wife Jennifer would love for me to sell all of them! When I open the closet door and the shoe boxes start falling out at me! 140 pairs and I think I should have been satisfied with just 10 pairs especially if they fit right. I do need to re-evaluate the situation and yes I need to sell 90 percent of my shoe collection I would keep the wedge sandals, 3 pairs Get rid of the platforms Keep the 4 inch strappy sandals I love to see my painted red toenails in those! and strappy shows off my feet nicely! I only have 3 pairs of boots the bakers shoe variety( Trendsetter and Bow Plus the Classified slouch boot) Keep the Karmen pumps from Payless 5 pairs they have a 3 inch heel and are very comfortable AND a side note We just got a 5 month old female puppy and she chewed up a pair of my bakers dress sandals :penitent: apparently not out of her reach. My cats never showed interest in my shoe collection L.O.L. TOO much money tied up in my shoe collection to get destroyed by our dog we live in an apartment so space is a premium So I think selling some of my shoes is a necessity I think that still does not sound like the answer to the question but I want to be in this discussion. HOW MANY SHOES IS TOO MUCH? And believe me I have a lot of incorrect fitting shoes.

  9. I have been purchasing sandals and heels from Payless shoes and I mention I am a guy that likes to wear heels and that my foot size is a 10 wide. Some of their shoes say wide but seem regular width to me especially when you order online which I do once in a while. I would hate to send back shoes for wrong fit. That is why I love to go right into the store and try on. So if you see me trying on heels and really notice especially with my full beard I am a guy with wide man feet! It really does help with a review saying I am a guy that way those ladies with a wider B width foot size can picture that scenario. Accuracy counts even with feet in heels L.O.L

  10. I admit that i do collect heels just ask my wife! But I was really into the Bakers shoe store before they went out of business. But certain styles of Bakers that fit me A 10 wide foot trying on a size 10 regular at Bakers can be tight! Needless too say I found some of their wedges sandals and heels actually fit my man feet nicely. The Makala wedge Gladiator Purchased all 4 colors Tan, Brown.Black and Gold. these wedge gladiators fit great and I like the lace up the front features The wedge is almost 4 inches Candee Sandal with a 4 inch heel Only available in brown and black But the fit was awsome so I bought both colors. The Cindee Sandal with a 3 inch wedge type heel Nice business sandal. all three colors White, Brown and tan. And finally a 4 inch wedge mocassin called Punchline The Bakers girls told me these Mocassins were not selling at all so I got all 3 colors for 11 dollars each! My wife Jennifer was like why do you need all THese in different colors? MY answer was Certain out- fits look better with certain colors Luckilly Her sister was in town the one day and she likes my heel collection and would have bought all those heels in all the different colors too!

  11. About 6 months ago i went out to my local meiers and decided to try on a pair of ladies levis. Men jeans litterally sag in the back and my wife has always said your jeans are falling off and look terrible so I wondered after ckecking out the levi web site and found out by comments that alot of guys wear womens jeans because they look and fit better! so i bought a pair of midrise levis slimming jeans and first of all i had to try a couple of pairs to get the right fit but they look great and slimming ladies jeans hug my butt and do not sag. And I love how they show off my sandals and high heels! my men jeans hide to much of the heels I also bought a pair of levis ladies shorts mary jane type tad bit longer tho Most ladies can tell by the jeans I am wearing they are ladies and And I got use to the small pockets in the front and back But wife likes the fact i cant fill them with paper receipts and junk and besides ladies jeans look terrible with full pockets anyway Like I said ladies jeans fit great and slim out my legs and make me sexy in my heels even my wifes friend Laura loves the look. So buy a pair or two You will be surprised how much better your legs look and ladies jeans have a bit of stetch to them and i bought a slightly tighter pair also and they do not want to cut off your circulation like a mans pair would if you down sized

  12. I like to buy from bakers shoes. And when I am on their web sight I always give reviews on all the Heels and Strappy sandals and Pumps I have purchased. I recently bought a pair of wedge indian type moccasins , Punchline is the name. I am a size 10 wide normally and Bakers shoes really are set up for a b size foot or medium width. But I can get away with some of their styles. I do get home after the purchases and put on thick socks to break in the shoes faster and that does help to make the heels more comfortable. But i do mention i am a guy that wears high heels and comfort is everything and mention i have a wider foot So I feel every one if they purchase shoes to give a review Guy or gal. And i Really enjoy the experience of giving feed back about my Heel purchases. I am sure the ladies love to read a high heel review from a guy and it does help that the shoe manufacturer knows guys also buy themselves Strappy sandals AND i do tell those nice Bakersshoe Ladies I will be giving a shoe review all positive and courteous They are very nice and do not mind helping me find a nice pair of heels that are wearable so too speak. And i tell the girls at work what heel I bought so they can read my reviews Because they to would like the same kind of heels and wonder about the fit. They order online the majority of the times and i am sure it can be a drag to send those heels back because of the wrong fit and some of my co-workers have seen my heels and once or twice i have wore them over to their house and showed them som they know how the fit is on me

  13. I keep the majority of my heels like from Payless and Dsw thrown together in two big boxes. But for some strange reason i keep all my Bakers heels in their respective shoe boxes. I love my bakers sandals and pumps plus the wedges. I consider Bakers a shoe collection because i have now 30 pairs from that store and they are a bit expensive to just throw in a big box and i feel Bakers will be the shoe store i shop at from now on because of the great service i receive! And i love to open my closet door and seeing grey shoe boxes with the word Bakers printed on them and i keep them very organized even tho i am sure my loving wife Jennifer would love to have that space for other things L.O.L

  14. I admit i have not gone out in full public view. But once I did go pay my rent at the front office and wore a pair of Bakers Moccasin wedges punchline is the name and they have a 3 and a half inch heel. so this the first time i have walked for a distance in heels the walk to the manager office was about three minutes And I admit it felt like thirty minutes Felt nervous and was watching how I was walking and This was at about 10 in the morning not like walking on carpet in my apartment! If any one was watching it probably looked like I was drunk wearing high heels LOL. Paying close attention to how I walked and not at ease and natural took little steps made good first attempt. Anyway went into the office and a nice girl named Trishia was there so i sat down payed the rent had a nice conversation and then asked how open minded she was. and here it goes raised my leg up and showed her the wedges and asked what she thought. she says she does not wear too many high heels I asked if she wanted to try them on She gave me a thoughtful look but said nothanks nice about it tho. So we had a little bit more conversation and I knew she was getting busy for the day and said thankyou shook her hand and told her to have a great day. And she watched me take little steps back to my apartment I am glad to go out even if it was only a short distance Made my day!

  15. I do wear sheer elegance panty hose at times, and I find especially when i buy a pair of high heels that are a bit tight. That it is just plain easier on my feet to wear panty hose so the feet just easily slide in and help break in my new heels. Just like the way the hose help slim my legs and make them look sexy so to speak. But today I was wearing hose with an old pair of Bakers peep toe 4 inch pumps and my wife was at the couch she said that was a nice combination but that my hairy legs thru the panty hose made it look like i had really bad vericose veins all over my legs! So needless to say Trip to the bathroom out came the electric razor and i shaved my legs! so a good rule especially for me is no hair on the legs when i am wearing pantyhose now I am starting to keep my legs shaved when wearing high heels from now on. Jennifer my wife says it looks better This from a lady who a few years ago when i first wore high heels was very shocked needless to say> BUt she and i love each other so she has gotten use to the idea one heel at a time .

  16. Considering I have been purchasing all my heels from Bakers lately I love the styles! I do give a review of the purchases there and in my reviews alot of times I mention I am a guy that wears high heels. Some of the styles can fit a wider type foot like mine i am a 10 wide so i would think it is to an advantage for me to give an acurate description of the fit and how the shoe feels and how easy or hard it is too walk in them The only thing i notice is at times i do have the only review and I know i am not the only one that has bought that type of shoe. So give the review and do not worry about the like or dislike comments In my opinion shoes are not cheap these days. And a good review is informative or a bad review.

  17. Recently went to Famous Footwear and purchased the Fergalicious Penny high heel with a 4 inch heel in black. My opinion it is very comfortable and very strappy! I like that And easy to walk in. I asked the sales girl what she thought and she has a pair herself and she was very helpful and we had a nice conversation about sandals and pumps. She was not the least bothered by me trying on the sandals and heels Talked about 15 minutes and she was doing inventory so i did not want to bug her even tho she said i was not. purchased my high heels and drove home and i soon as i walked in the apartment those sandals were on my feet and i am wearing them as i reply to the post. I do notice now how easy it is to walk in heels now and i love the height of the Fergies because they are a 4 inch heel no platform and the design is how a basic strappy sandal should look I just need to get over the worry of going out in public because i would love to show my sandals to an unsupecting public a little step at a time. Thanks again high heel place I noticed Happyinheels has the Bakers cecilia wedge sandal I do too. And they are a nice wedge sandal. I am also a size 10 they are a little tight on the middle of my arch did try out a thick pair of socks to loosen the area up seems to of helped Have them in the white and they are sexy! cant say enough about Bakers shoes. Love them.

  18. WIFE knows and does tolerate but does not want to go out with me to the shoe store if i am wearing heels so to speak lol. does not really mind me wearing in the house but prefers not seeing my in public in them! tho one time while we were at the shoe store she was trying on hiking boots to buy and while she was walking around the store trying them out i was trying the high heels on and walking around the store she seen me and rolled her eyes but kept trying on boots.

  19. I own one pair of mens tennis shoe> one pair of work boots. and 70 pairs of ladies high heels I admit to WANTING more Heels only so much closet space and my wife is tired of all the sandals She does ask when will get some mens dress shoes intead of womens dress shoes!

  20. MY answers are. 1. Watch tv 2.Clean house 3.make dinner 4 relaxe on the couch. 5.Wash dishes 6.Go to mall and specifically go to Bakers shoes and shoe shop! 7. Hanky Panky with my wife because she likes it when I look cute in my high heels.8 Really about anything in the house i love to break in my new heel purchases. *And my wife is always the priority above my High heels so I think i should have made her number 1 love my wife!

  21. I tend to when i am on the sight and right now i am wearing a pair of bakers shoes wedges just bought them and i find that this is a good way to break them in the name of the wedge sandals are Arlington. i figure if i am sitting for about an hour it is fun to wear a nice pair of heels. Why not i like the hhplace and am glad to give an answer to the topic And i do like to look down and see my feet in sandals or high heels and as always making sure i have some nice red nail polish on.

  22. Have Actually been buying from Bakers shoes lately and do plan to build up a collection of their heels dress and casual. Have been very pleased from the service and friendlyness of the Bakers girls. It is very nice when i walk into that store and the reconize me and give me great and honest opinions about the shoes i try on and buy they do not try to sell me something i am not interested in. they do not mind me being a guy trying and buying heels> it is funny when customers come in when i am there wearing high heels and walking around the store. some tend too turn around and leave while others just go about their shoe shopping and do not mind. Real quick i was in there and it is prom time of the year and the young ladies were in there to buy prom type sandals and they would put them on but just look at them and not even walk around the store to see if they where comfortable. And here they see me walking in 4inch and 5 plus inch heels i make sure the fit is comfortable and even do a little dance and walk backwards. those girls where very entertained I think the parents where alittle nervous oh well they are just shoes Right! Bakers is always updating their shioes and i wish i had that much money to buy them all but alas i do not so i choose carefully Try Bakers they in my opinion are one of the last true shoe stores and are very helpful and i recommend them highly and i love the fact the Bakers girls have to wear Bakers shoes to work in.

  23. more toward femine strappy sandals with 3inch heels or 4inch and pumps with designs on them gladiator wedges my sandals all my shoes i think are more for women i have shown the girls at work some of my collection and they like them but im a size ten or eleven depends on the heel. and naturally the girls are are 8s and 7 and a half my shoes are to long for them not to say some of them havent tried to wear them. my wifes friend likes my sandals and pumps and she is the same shoe size as my so she always gets to try on the heels and she will say very nice and cute so that gives feminine type taste in shoes i dont mind tho they do make my feet look cute and sexy. so i tend to buy more lady like heels

  24. i feel a little of both as i look down at my feet in heels depends on the number of straps and how secure they feel. i have noticed that when a lady is wearing heels and sitting down like on a bench seat she does look down at her pumps or sandals and tends to move her feet around at different angles to see her shoes and how they look. i would call that a type of fixation that i like to do myself so i think that is a feminine side of my wearing heels and yes when i slide my sandals on my feet they feel good and especially when i first wore my ladies high heel shoes it did make me feel very good about myself and yes a little sexy at that. still feel this way and when i walk in them i like how they tend to make me correct my way of walking and that has improved my posture and as should say i tend to wear my heels in the house but have gone out a few times once in the morning to the mall to go shoe shopping at bakers. still wanting to go more out in public. i feel i did not specify that in my introduction about myself. the heels i wear sometimes fit great while others were tight in the toes but not to where i could not walk in them. but back to the question after work i get home and put on a pair of heels and that relaxes me and my wife likes to see me in a good mood which high heels tend to do also heels help tone my legs so that is good excercise that is a good reason to wear them so basically i like the way they look on my feet .

  25. if i go into bakers i always try them on. after all how many guys do you see at a time trying on 5 inch sandals and pumps at bakers. and those bakers girls wear the coolest bakers shoes and the attention i get there is awsome. they are there too sell shoes and have told me upfront the first time i asked if they have many guys trying on and buying high heels. i was nervous the first time in there especially when they said can i help you. i told them upfront that i was looking for high heels for myself and they brought out the size10 or 11 i was looking for. tend to have to wear 11s there because of the height of the shoes and believe me the first time i tried a 5 and a half inch heels there i almost fell over but the girls told me how to correct my posture so i tend to get the best service there and like their heels cant say enough about that store. pricey but worth it for me anyway. if go into payless i just walk in at the time they open and they always ask if they can help i tell them either im just browsing or im looking for high heel for myself and the answer i tend to get from payless is whatever floats your boat ilke to make conversations about shoes to the staff and they like high heel also. payless tnds to have a female staff so it makes me more relaxed. dsw tends to know as soon as a guy starts looking at the heels like myself i might buy them especially if i sit down and take my socks off and any one standing near me sees my red painted toe nails so they ask if i need help and enen the guys that work there are helpful. only thing i n otice is that dsw does not sell that many wide width strappy sandal s at the stores and you have to look on their websight to order so that is no fun. i have bought a few pairs of tight fitting heels from there when i first bought heels and learned from my mistake so always try them on. most people dont pay attention and those who do only for a second i admit i still get a little nervous especially if there are more men coming in as i am trying on the heels so i tend to stay about 10 more minutes and hopefully find a pair i like if my budget can afford buy and leave. go in right when a shoe store opens really only me and the sales staff and i like that. i really think no one loses sleep seeing my trying on heels.:wavey:
