You guys are all great. Here is a picture of my favorite pumps at this moment. These are very easy to walk in at 4.5 inches. Please excuse the unshaven legs. I wear heels just because I like to and simply have never felt like wearing other "female" attire. So I don't have any skirts or hose.

Anyone here from Upsate NY, Western NY or Central NY? (Upsate means north of Binghamton) I live just south of Syracuse and am the only guy I have ever seen in public with heels on. Joe

I did not answer the poll because it is not for me. If I said never or no then it would sound like I did not think it was for men or men should not wear it. I don't feel that way. I just don't like polish in general, male or female, but is just my taste.

You should wear what you want, and I concurr it is great having a suportive wife. Mine feels the same way and likes me in sandles too. I just don't wear too many open toed strappy heels myself simply because I don't really like the look for men or women. I just think closed toed heels with cleavage are sexier because they leave something for the imagination. Must be the American in me, culturally repressed, regressed, and depressed. Afterall I live in the "Don't ask don't tell" society. Honestly the imagination is almost always better than reality.

Tressa and I buy and sell all the time on e-bay. It enables, mostly me, us to rotate our heels without too much cost, they really do not lose their value. We sell internationally and have bought some international. You can not view an item that is not listed international for shipping or particularly for your nation unless you specifically enter an international e-bay directly. They will not allow revisions once bids are made to protect buyers from being missled into something other than what they are bidding on. I bid at minimal alot because it is the only way to get a good deal. Will go higher on the "perfect" heels. Anyway, e-bay is so big if you do not get what you want just wait it will be back.

Maybe I am still too new here but where is "heels for sale"?

I have a few platforms, just don't wear them often. My problem with them is that they are not very flexible and tire my feet faster. Also I think high heels without the clunkly look of platformed toe boxes are simply sexier to look at and feel sexier when on.

I wish I knew. Nice boots anyway and it really does not matter who or where they are made if you like them and they fit well. I have perused U.K. e-bay from the U.S. many times and wish Faith were available in the U.S. I buy and sell alot under the name tressa_joe, always looking for that perfect pair. Faith always look like the best and as though they are of high quality. On a side note, it really is too bad that shipping from Europe to the U.S. is so expensive. I sell often to European buyers and typical airmail is $16.50. Shipping from the continent to the U.S. always seems to be 20 plus Euros. Too bad or I would definately buy more European heels, especially from Germany and Italy.

Hi Angie, love your style. I have bought a few of my fetish styles from you and Bob over the last few years.

I absoluted love the look of toe cleavage and my favorite 5" pumps must have at least a little or I just don't wear them too much. It is such a sexy turn on to see women with low cut pumps, I just end up fixating on them, sorry ladies, but I just have to look. Toe cleavage just like heel height is a sign of virility in my mind. Be honest only physically fit women wear higher heels 4inch or more, and only thin slightly bony feet look great with cleavage. Next to T-Straps, low cuts are my favorite type to see women wearing.

Hey guys, this is my first official post but I was pondering lately a thought about men in heels. As you already know I am like most of you guys love to wear my heels, the classy yet very sexy type mostly. I noticed that most of us actually prefer heels that most women generally are afraid to wear themselves. We like higher more sultier styles. Anyway the thought I was working over in my head is. Most women who actually wear heels usually only do so when they are getting overly dressed up for a function outside their normal lives, like weddings, special occasions and the like. Not many really wear nice shoes to work these days. Women have been also been typecast through the years just as we have. Many are taught from a very young age that the only acceptable formal outfit would require high heels. Many of these women probably only own just a few pairs, my wife included. (she has 4 pair I have 100+ and mine are almost all sexier) If it became the norm, and I sure wish it was:smile: , that men were to wear high heels how many of these women would just stop wearing them. Since the only reason for them to wear these in the first place was because it was required female attire to properly dress up. If we finally win our ultimate goal, would sales of heels really go way up. Afterall many current buyers, women, may simply just stop. As I write this I am wearing a pair of super long tipped toed 4" D'Orsays that my wife and I will be playing with very soon.

Welcome heellover07. My wife loves me in heels too, great since I can't live without them. I think you will love being here. You are a fortunate guy, that both you and your wife can enjoy the glee of heels. I unfortunately am the only wearer the heels in my house as my wife can not do so other than for bedroom fun. She does respect and always points out others in heels for me, on the rare times I actually happen to miss them.

I agree with Heel-Lover, I have always found it to be comfortable and easier to walk with thinner stiletto heels when wear my higher heels. The shape also helps if the heel is more of the classic design that has the tip closer to the center of the sole. I have several heels that were very popular a couple years ago where the heel is straight down from the back of the shoe and the balance is all off, they feel like they will break in half and the heels tend to bend backward at the bottom making the problem even worse over time. Lately the heel shape has gone back to the late 50's early 60's design when classic pumps were at there all time sexiest shape.

I have at 100 pr of pumps and boots. My wife and I play with them all the time and we both pretty much wear the same size.

Hi Jim, I have been a member for just under 2 weeks. You're going to love this site. Good luck. Joe

Gary; Got those nine west's on ebay for less than $30, absolute bargain. I was really surprised once they arrived, the photo was nice but until they show up you just don't know. I have also noticed lately nine west size 10's have been a little larger so I spreed on several pump syles. I honestly think they recognize the need and have adjusted US womens sizing some lately so the smaller size numbers are actually larger. Any works for me. Joe

Here are three links, the first is me with the pair of brown pumps I had been wearing when I decided to show the boots.

The second is the boots I wore that night to the concert. These are so comfortable and I have worn them as long as 14 hrs straight on the weekend just going about my normal business including a dinner for breakfast and a wholesale food club.

Me wearing them.

I have have found heel height does typically adjust with size. The better the maker the more frequent the adjustment. I wear 10 and 11 depending on fit, but have purchased multiple pairs in many sizes and noticed they seemed to jump the height at every other size. This saves the manufactrure a lot money because it reduces inventory to have fewer individual part numbers. Many manufactures will use the same heel and sole beds for a large variety of styles, pumps, slings, etc for the same reason and only change seasonally. Joe

I just read a great thread start from euchrid in the discussion for men area. I reminded me of a couple weeks back when my wife and I went to the Meatloaf (showing my age group) concert. I wore my favorite 4.25" Nine West boots the the show. We arrived in daylight and I made no attempt to either hide or show off the heels. I wore them like I would my sneakers. It was a rainy evening and the boots are actually practical as I just walked right through the puddles like they were not there and never got wet. While at the show the guy next to me finally noticed I had them on at intermission, he was definately taken aback and wispered alot to his wife. At that point it was fun to sit there and watch them constantly sneak peeks. Anyway as soon as I am able I will post a link to photos for them and others. I just have not been a member long enough to post. I will add as much as I can to the gallery as well. I just love this group and reading the threads that are written. You guys and gals are the best. Joe:smile:

Thanks guys for the welcome. I told my wife about this site and joining it after she got home last night. I am lucky my wife has always liked me in heels. When I first met her I told her withina short time and to my surprise she told me she always thought guys in heels was just sexy, she is a big heavy metal fan. Joe

Hi, this is my first post to this site. I discovered it purely by accident yesterday and look foward to a long and enjoyable stay. I am a 43 yr old engineer who has been enjoying heels for 23 years. I own a lot of shoes, and wear them publicly often. My wife has always been supportive and many of her friends and mine are fully aware of my passion. I typically wear 4" to 5" womens US 10 to 11. I have a few pair of 3 to 3.5" loafers I wear to work on occasion. I look foward to meeting the people on this site. Joe
