Has anyone already ordered some boots to "cowboybootsusa"? 

Seems the factory is in Mexico and all customizations are possible. 

Thanks

Happy Christmas to all heelers !

100% same feeling. 

I recommend : fuss shoes,extremehh in Spain and Italian heels. Quality is great,service is perfect. Totally reliable. 

Right. Me neither. 

As a French born guy I have to apologize. CB shoes could look nice but they are uncomfortable and often even not long lasting 

And the ones for men( flat) are ridiculous,designed for no taste nouveau riche. 

Sorry about that. 

Yes,go higher  but just for fun! @Jkrenzeris right. If you wore 5.5" all day long you will ruin your body. 

I wear 5.5" to 6" at home.For fun,feeling and training.  So not so much walking. Outside 5" is high enough.Sometimes to high!

For a man in heels feminine gait looks as stupid as a cowboy gait. 

Walking in line is the only medium way for a nice and secure walk

I wouldn't bet Chinese people won't be able to create nice things in the future. I met in Beijing some people having a real good taste. Ok,not the majority. 

And what about that growing obvious lack of taste I can notice in America ( sorry friends) and more and more often in old Europe ( shame on us) 

i am afraid Chinese people produce what we ask for. Cheap,cheap and that's it. 

That's totally right. Is true in 99% situations 

execpt: a bunch of jung drunk guys,searching for someone they could give pain to. So there are some  city  areas  I would never  walk in heels. 

Hello @Shyheels

i suppose you may have some joins pain that doesn't allow you to run. 

But can you wear high heels without any trouble? 

I used to run a lot in the past.Now because of back,knew problems I can't anymore. But biking,hiking,swimming AND wearing heels,even very high and on long distances are ok. So why would I ask for more?  

I  can't agree more ! 

I am trying to resist to the everyday degradation of the French language ! 

Same ! I rent a small 1m2 in a self storage for the shoes I could get rid of but I know I will regret sooner or later 

Hello. 

Welcome here. 

Yes please ,we are waiting for the rest of the story.

You can still get that service with airfrance in cdg airport if you travel 1st class. And in Frankfurt,same,with Lufthansa 1st class. 

 But don't expect anything even  if you are platinum or diamond and travel business. 

Thank you @spikesmike! 

I don't feel at ease enough for wearing these Oxford outside. The heel is 17 cm They are perfect for house work,even all day long. But for walking on different surfaces I can't handle more than 14,5 and preferably block heels. That's my limit. Always with no platform. 

Thanks again.

Italian heels 

Keep doing! 

What about these? 

Totally agreed! Fed up with that Black Friday. On the radio,television,social média. Are we all so stupid?Do we all need to rush on the same things at the same time? And forget on the following day! 

Very nice boots! 

Why don't you ask a cobbler to put something softer on the heel. Less noisy,so not so noticeable and more important,less slippery.

Starbucks is doing well in Paris despite of the numerous nice little cafes and bigger brasseries because Starbucks offers a full range of pastries and other food. What you can't really find in the small cafes. Only a poor croissant from yesterday. 

Some exceptions of course ,some cafes are offering a lot of nice food.But only a few and often located in a small street  

i personality don't like Starwood.i hate waiting 5 ( or more) minutes standing for a coffe that is often too strong and very bitter. The pastries are too sweet and way  too  fat.

Too funny! 

Nice. In my opinion,(and experience) the heel is too far behind. That could make the walk more difficult even if height ( big platform) is not important. 

Lost battle!
