  1. In the summer I wear my wedges and high heel sandals with my shorts. If I want to mess with people's minds, I'll wear my calf high boots with shorts.

    I have my New Balance running shoes and hiking boots for rough hikes, and teva for water/sand.

  2. In the late 70's early 80's I had a pair of shooties with a 3 inch heel. Wore those shoes to threads.

    I switched to women's shoes in about 2010 because they fit better and at that time I had 1.5 to 2.5 inch heels. Mostly boots and booties. I had a medical need to raise my heel 4 inches. Tried heels because I couldn't be unbalanced. After 3 + months I notice I wasn't in constant pain. I notice when I could go back to no heels the pain came back. So I wear heels or take pain killers, that simple.

    What kind of pain do 4+ inch heels relieve for you?

    At one time I considered telling people that I wore heels because relived a pinched nerve in my back, but I never went through with that. Instead I tell anyone who asks that I always wondered what they were like, or that I just have fun being goofy.

    And what about the other 4-6 months? Do you still wear heels but with something else, or do you stop wearing heels too?

    I had a major injury that drove my femur into my iliac before twisting me apart and doing more nasty things to other parts of my body. 4 inch + heels stops bone-on-bone rubbing. Pain has been a part of my life since. By chance I found out that 4 inch rise great reduces this pain

    I don't wear shorts in the winter, but I still wear heels all year round, just with long pants in the fall winter early spring months. Then its mostly boots and booties. (There is a group of "boot" fans at work that always ask me to pull up my pants legs so they can see my boots.) Summer its mostly open-toe sandals/wedges so I can show off my nails.

    Like this morning I drove to a lake in my mules, changed to water shoes for a kayaking trip, back to mules/heels to drive home. But now I'm putting running shoes on so I can do roofing.  Surprisingly 4 inch heels and roofs don't work together.

  4. I wear my 4+ inch heels with shorts for about 6-8 months during the summer. So I expect that people will notice. Funny thing, must people don't. I don't wear them for attention, I wear them for pain relief. I don't care what people think, except I want them to "like" what I am wearing (even envy).  I wear a lot of designer heels. At work I have women tell me that "you always have the nice shoes", "those are really nice", or they wish they could walk in heels like I do.

    SkirtDude,

    I'm a bit confused on something. Who is the guy in a dress and sandals in front of an NBC (Channel 4) affiliate? THey don't have NBC in Great Britain but a Brit is posting it. Were you just over here in the USA and saw this where you were staying?? I'm not sure what the news story was exactly. The guy looks like he would blend into most urban landscapes as he seems passable. Thoughts?   HappyinHeels

    I'm afraid you've lost me. Could you provide more information?

    Jeff, I too was confused by this post until I saw the July 29 post by SkirtDude in this thread. In it SkirtDude, aka "the Brit", posted two pictures, in the second there is a NBC 4 logo.  I hope that clears it up.

  6. You could go a day early and stop overnight along the way.  Or just wear your 'cowboy boots".

    My mother knows I wear heels but I tone it down around her being she is in her late 90's, drives, plays sports, etc.

    No stilettos or my CFM's around her.
