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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course, all the time. I drink coffee at work and work for hours. The click sound is louder on tile surfaces that most public restrooms have. Almost every heel I have make sound, my chunky heels, stilettos, block heels, and even my wedges.

Just be careful about the spray back from the urinal, and be careful about any liquids on the floor because they can make you slip.

Walking is somewhat a function of the type of heel.  I wear such a wide variety of heels. Some of my wedges I can almost  run in, some like my Jessica Simpson stiletto I have to careful where I put my foot down. Don't want to get the heel caught in an expansion joint or the gap getting on and off an elevator. I have to be careful with my platforms and chunky heels I tend to walk slowly. A young woman was kidding me the other day that she could walk much faster than me.

Going down stairs is the place I would like to use a video to improve my graceful descend (avoid falling). Going down flights of stairs in stilettos is nightmarish, and I have to do this when the elevator is not working.

I like a variety of heel styles.  Today work heels are Freebird Canti's purchase in 2017.  I have two pairs, these brown ones and another one in black.

I love these chunky style heels, and this sandal has an adjustable toe strap which is great because I have a large toe box.  I had to add an extra hole though. 

I wear heels about 10-12 hours a day. At work I spend most of my time standing and walking for 5+ hours each day. I sit and "observe" less than a hour.  3.75 to 4.5 inch difference is comfortable, higher not so much.  

Sliding

Please don't laugh me off this site.  This question came from a non-HHP member, a friend from a former site that some of you know.

Does anyone know anything about Ballerine flats by Softstar?

Thanks!

Again, please don't laugh me off this site

Uneven loading on the heel and torque from changing from gas pedal to brake pedal.  I can feel and see this on some of my heels from driving.  And 99%+ of the time I'm driving in heels.  (Experimental based science.)

What is unknown is the condition of the shank in the left heels.  Do they show stress or not.

Or it could be from driving.

What are the shoes?

Steve Madden Lure purchased in 2019. I don't wear them often.

1/2 inch platform, 5.5 inch heel.

@mlroseplant it looks like you are on vacation in the Caribbean with those shorts.

I like my wedges, they are some of the easiest heels to walk/ work in.  But some days are stiletto days, especially with short shorts.
