Well my new sandals finally arrived.  They fit except the strap is not long enough, about 2 inches too short.

Since they were clearance bought - no returns   .  You win some you lose some.

So I need to find a "broken down" pair and cannibalize the straps for "extenders" .

But you have a need...rattlesnakes and ticks

I just took the gamble on a pair of strappy sandals. I hope mine work out.  Never brought shoes from this store before.

When your calf tears; a 3 inch by 5 inch hole.

It's starting to get more common with men in heels. The more we are out in public the common it will get.

I've had gel gold metallic fingernails before. They are really fun. You start with a yellow gel base and put the powder on top and rub it in, then a clean on top. If you start with bright orange (instead of yellow) you get a rose gold effect.  

Just be careful that you don't grow your calves too large to fit into knee high or higher boots.

Probably both.  Your coworkers/students would probably comment if you came to work without wearing heels.  

They have on the very rare times I have been barefooted (after a pedicure).

This summer a VP asked what color my toe nails were while showing me hers.

I used walking on my toes to rebuilt my ankle and calves after multiple reconstructive surgeries.  My calves were the envy of several friends that run for year (I don't run) until I blew out a calf.  They are still bigger than theirs and they are still envious.😄 All that work walking on toes helped me to transition into 4+ inch heels in minutes when I switched my shoes to heels to heal my calf.

Great boots, you must get plenty of questions/compliments for the students

Almost none at all.  I worn them to work four times in 6 weeks, and the only comment was from a student that he thought I was just a member of the "family".  But I'm not.

That day I also worn these knee highs to a end on semester celebration luncheon with hundreds of people. No comment at all.   Either nobody cares or I have normalize I wear high heels or both.

If you look near the end, you will see that he shows the agent that he is wearing "underwear" but it appears to be a g-string or thong style. It appears that the style of underwear is not sufficient to contain stuff.  This is not about a man wearing a skirt, but about indecent exposure.

And who hasn't flown in heels, in my cases 4 + inches.

South West, American, Qantas, British Airways, Air Canada, ......

Awesome boots! 
you should sneak more photos from work!!!! That’s some  of the fun. 

Thanks.

I really love these and wish I had seen these earlier and gotten another one, but they sold out fast. So easy to walk in during 12 hour days.

"At work" photos are going to hard to come by since I only have 2 to 4 more days on site this year.

I really wonder how frequent it is that a guy goes into a shoe store and tries on women's shoes.

It's really not that rare. I have seen another guy shopping at a Steve Madden store.

I asked this question to a boutique shoe shop manager and she told me she has about half dozen "regular" male customers.

A rare photo from work. Rare for several reasons.  Rare that I am sitting (I'm torturing students  with a Final), rare that I take a picture at work. But not rare that I wear my knee highs with shorts.

I have the opposite experience.  There are people like my wife who tolerate the 4" cuban heels on my cowboy boots but she would throw a fit if I wore stilettos, of any height. 

Too bad, stiletto boots are great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
