OUTING: Am on a short trip. Yesterday I decided to be adventurous. On my way to the airport, I drove most of the way, parked, and changed into my 4" block light-brown heels, probably .5" platform because the heels can barely be felt. It looks like work-shoes with some chunky heels... That, dark sweater, and jeans that end 1" from the ground. Walked to the train to take me to the airport. At the airport, checked in, and proceeded to go through security. I was hoping hoping that I could walk right through, and noticed that no-one was taking their shoes off (yay!), but alas, after I unpacked my stuff onto the belt, the guy looked at me, and asked me to put my shoes through the xray. Interestingly, I had a non-reaction to this, knelt down and proceeded to take the shoes off as it was the most natural thing. Really didn't give a hoot. Shoes went through xray, on the other side, with a bunch of other people idling by, grabbed by stuff & shoes, put them on, and walked to my gate.
I'm really surprised by my reaction, or lack of, on this. Compared to the embarrasment I felt just a few months ago, I definitely did not expect this level of "change".
In any case, bought some food and drinks, waited around, eventually boarded the plane, and sat, isle seat. The flight was long, 5-6 hours, but was comfy all the way through. I was definitely more self-conscious than usual, but nothing too much. Did my thing, as usual. The flight was uneventful, no-one said anything, although it was impossible not to notice, the whole thing was visible. Flight landed, got off, walked through the airport, got on the train to take me downtown, broad daylight. Then walked to my hotel room (~15 minute walk?), checked in. Wore those heels for a personal record-setting 14-15 hours. It was very satisfying!
More later...
Well done mate. Snap us a picture next time so we can see the look?

Same with tops! Lots of lace, silk, and cami's for me. Last Saturday on a pseudo date I wore a cream lace women's top, blazer, delicate gold necklace...and skinny pants tucked into riding boots with just a 2" heel...but it was unmistakably comfortable. And "me".
How did it go?

Pierre 1961 has won the competition.
Sorry, I forgot to mention.
What's the prize???
9 hours ago, Pierre1961 said:Oh! I am so happy and proud!
thank you !
But also a bit ashamed because of so many other wonderful legs which could have also won.
Anyway more happy than ashamed as I take it as a result of lot of sport and careful diet.
Thanks again
Pierre
You need to take a victory round, me thinks!

Previously, the size conversion US 11 was 42.5 EU, it fit me perfectly. Since the shoes are made in China, it's 42, slightly smaller.
I can wear these in 43, with greater heel 14 cm
You can wear them. But can you walk them ;-)

Well done @hiddenheels - not so hidden anymore!
-
Not my style either, but I looked at the site, and they have some nice classic looks too. Like these -
https://www.shoes2go.shop/product-page/vida-9
https://www.shoes2go.shop/product-page/sparkles-328
https://www.shoes2go.shop/product-page/vida-8
https://www.shoes2go.shop/product-page/evelyn-603
but only a handful going up to size 11
and their site looks VERY much "in beta"... with all the placeholders still there.
I assume they don't ship over the pond either
-
Well done Cali. I like the black version
-
@KneeBooted - well done on all the small successes! The look is definitely appealing, and not hiding the heel at all!
-
Welcome @Stevie65!

Sharp looking shoes. They look to be just a bit small with your foot heel off the back a bit. Did you buy them in your normal size?
I'm assuming the straps don't allow his foot to go down much further …

My wife doesn't like this pointed toe
wow, 5+ inches with no platform would be a tall stretch for me!
What toe does your wife prefer? and did you mean like for her, or for you ?

I've generally liked JC's heels - mostly a chunky look, but not too way out. Would be interesting to see where this goes. Are these being sold as MEN's heels, or "standard" women's?
-
I know some of you are fans of metal heels, and came across these at asos.com
not clear to me if they are actual metal heels, or metal looking... but they have up to size 42/9 UK which should cover many of you :-)
let them know I sent you
