I want a pair!

Good then im not the only insane person here

Found this.

Known as High Tide Heels, they combine the elegance of stiletto heels with the swimming speed of flippers.

They could provide a fashionable alternative for sun-seekers who don't want the hassle of changing footwear every time they cool off with dip in the sea.

But don't expect to see thousands of tourists ditching their flip flops and sandals in favour of High Tide Heels this year.

The shoes were created by the Belgian artist Paul Schietekat for an exhibition in 2006, and there are not thought to be any plans to release them commercially.

Even so, similar designs are causing excitement among style-conscious travellers on shoe websites.

One commenter wrote: "Great for crazy fashionistas who don't want to be seen without heels even at the beach.

"I think Posh Spice should adopt this style, she almost always wears heels."

But others thought they would be too uncomfortable for practial use, with one commenter writing: "I am sorry but these of got to be the weirdest style of shoes I have ever seen.

"I cannot begin to imagine how in the world you would walk in them without tripping over you feet."

Cant belive im about to say this. At first these are like wtf! second kinda odd. third im getting crasy. do you have link for their website?

I will defenently be doing some browsing. Thx peep's.

Hey People. Iv'e been searching for some Wedge Boot's now for quite some time but i haven't been able to find any. My biggest problem is the size since i wear a size 46 EU. I'm looking for some similar to the picture iv'e attached. The material can be both leather and suede in black or brown. Prefer without platform but not a requirement. If any of you know a place i can order online that would be awesome.

Tbh id say it depends. They can be both it all depends on the Sub & Dom. For a Sub to be tied up in heels they give a restriction look and as Dom its defenently empowered.

I realize this is kinda off season but since mine kicked in Friday i thought it would be fun to hear what you had and if you have keept it. Mine was quite simple. First one was to stop smoking and i keept that for about 15 mins so thats a fail. Second was to do something new. Well i moved to another country so il say i keept that. And the Third but for me the one i like the most. At that time i had 2 pair of flats shoes and my new year resolution was for those 2 pair of flats to be my last flats and friday the last pair got trown away so from now on it's only Heel's, wich tbh it mostly was anyway. So if you see me out and about it would be 3 inch+. So the new shoe count. Flats - 0 HH pumps - 7 HH Boots - 4 Share your input and tell us how it went. Br.

If you left that would be like a Mentor leaving. <---- Does not like!

There has been an idea that I have been processing that being the idea of choosing a pair of shoes or boots for practical comfort or painful pointy toe for looks. There are a few trade-offs that happen all the time. Somehow those cursed pointy toes keep getting on to our streets while a square toe looks just as good and does not kill the toes. There must be a reason and my best guess is that the decision is made to scrap comfort for style. Another feature is the slant of the inside of the heel. When I take a two inch tall block and put my heel on it I can easily reach my toes to the floor. So from this I figure that a heel only two inches higher than the sole need not be slanted down. Actually I have made shims to correct this design error and they feel great. Even though I have been so comfort and safety minded I have still on occasion sacrificed comfort for style. So why do people buy those unhealthy shoes. Maybe there is something going on here that I am not aware of. Also hope that this does not duplicate any existing subjects as this new system the search does not work as good.

Well pointy shoes does not mean pain anymore than other's. It all depends on getting the right pointy shoe for your feet type. For me a long toe will hurt alot where a short toe will start hurting after 6 to 8 hours.

Yes and No on this one. A normal day at work doing normal things i dont put much thoughts that way. But when out and about its alot on my mind due to surfaces and such.

winter was avarege -22.0f here. -30c

Normally no. But in the recent i have started to become more aware of this subject. Normally i havent care'd much about what my partner was wearing but a date changed that. She chose to show up wearing shoe's similar to the ones in the picture. And damn sandals is really a killer for me. They really kill sex apeal for me. She was very sweet and had a really good sense of humor wich i really liked but i just could not see her as a potential partner after seing her in those shoe's so that date ofc went down a dead end. I then found a girlfriend who wasent wearing sandals not that it was a criteria just a lucky catch. But sadly thats not the case anymore. So this could be a relationship gone wrong due to choice of clothing but only time will tell. I know it may sound stupid but thats just the way i have it.

In another thread I said Smart Cars looked like baby shoes.. compare these 2 next to one another..

Your wrong... The shoe deff looks bigger.

My wife has several pairs of heels which I've gifted. Unfortunately she doesn't share my passion for them and mostly wears them on special occasions. I figured someone in this house has to wear the heels!

Yeah that "Heel's is only for special occasions" attitude is really anoying. Some might be only suitable for special occasions but thats only a few styles.

Not really. She's a flats girl. Bought her a pair of Rockport Janae. Really nice but she's only worn twice in the house for a half an hour each time. Any ideas or tips?

Well she prob dont like to wear heel's then. I belive you have alot better chance to win in the lottery than you have on finding a women who likes wearing high heel's. Most are flaties these days or else the shoe are filled with all kind's of crap. Its a sad turn for the worse the world are taking these days. Feels like living in the wrong time sadly.

The ultimate favority style for me is like these: http://billedeupload.dk/images/T7e8p.jpg but thats is almost never seen anymore

Hey. This page looks very exciting and I look forward to many happy hours in here.

Love BootBoy:wave:

Hello and welcome.

Hello and welcome bootboys. Where is Svendborg? I thought I was good at geography, but who knows with the changing face of our world.

Svendborg is in the southern part of Denmark.

Could you specify that abit more? Im not sure i understand.

one simple word: Fail!

Just to clarify as it seems some has it wrong it's not the high ones thats the problem its the low ones.

Anyone know how these can be harder to walk in

It gotta gome out in the open. None of those two thing will work as it is now.

and the choice fell on 4094-u thx all Now i just need to find some gogo style boots with atleast 4 inch heel. cause winter here in finland makes stilletos a challenge. have a pair currently at the cobler because i bent the heel by slipping.

I will probably be in Finland in a few months time...

Where you plan on going?

The boots seem to be winning by a large majority, sorry I'm biased on this vote.

Even though the boots still have serious competition from the suede finish

Hi Simcity3 What ones did you eventually decide on.???

Havent decided yet. Am giving it to the 15 th. and se how the votes goes. allthough its pretty clear atm. But i must say i my self are leaning more over to the pumps than the boots atm but who knows

Most won't give a damn what you are wearing. Some will take a second look and carry on their own busines. Some might point you finger and call you gay. In rare occasions there might by someone coming to you and compliment your courage.

Just balance your foorwear with your overall look and style and you will go unnoticed just like any other people around.

btw, prepare for snow and wet weather... we just got winter started after 2 months delay. Match your footwear to weather conditions and you'll be just fine.

Hehe winter started. Would more say its trying to start

I'm going to Finland next month. How do Finnish people react to men in heels ?

None have reacted to me the 4 months ive been here. And thats no matter what i wear.

Does anyone have these Karla Malthon over the knee boots? Curious as to the quality and your thoughts about them. Thanks...
