If someone asks me “What if you fall down?”  I would answer “I would get back up”

Heels are actually useful for wading in sloshy stuff.  The nobility supposedly used to wear heels to stay above all the horse manure and things in the streets.  I like my 2” heels when I am walking around the barn for the same reason.  If my heels sink into some mud or worse at least my socks, feet, and pants are not going to be drenched.

I can wear and walk in 4+” heels all day, but I don’t know what kind of stores to go to find out what my “maximum” is as 4” seems to be where most normal shoes top out.

Since shoes often come off and on at security checkpoints I always wear pull on knee high boots.  Unfortunately the OTK boots have to stay home.

Think that's the best I can hope for, then getting someone’s notable comments about my attire.  Yet didn't deter me from feeling upbeat and happy wearing my new attire. From my many years of experience wearing said outfits feels that when you put your head down through the pushing wind of negativity it will slowly change the tide with others realizing they were wrong  feeling better and positive with regards to my outfits.

The gym is not a place where I would expect to get much positive encouragement about attire.  I imagine if people are comparing anything would be mostly their bodies.  I think interactions in the gym may not be representative of broader attitudes towards fashion, or apply to heels, seeing as they are not worn there.  

Yes I enthusiastically thanked each person because they offered positive encouragement.  

I have enjoyed dressing up since I was a teenager, and am open to experimentation and improvement.  In the office and business meetings I am almost always the only guy wearing a blazer, etc.  My goal with heels is not to suddenly transform my overall look, but to expand its boundaries.  Based on the reaction from the street, I think it is working, because the heels have not garnered any more attention than wearing a new blazer or tie.

Most people take cues on dressing appropriately based solely on what everyone else is wearing.  I like the idea of putting together my own style that is still befitting and appropriate.  

Cool moves - just goes to show that if you can do it, you can do it in heels.  

Poor firearms handling though.  Switching hands to rack the slide is ineffective.  Plus the first thing I noticed about him was the uneven sagging boot shafts.  Perhaps it only stayed on his body because it was an unloaded plastic gun...

I received a third comment this evening right after posting this.  When the lady tending bar in the restaurant gave me the bill, she said “You probably walk better in those heel than I can.  You’re rocking them!”  

Fun day today - and I get to contemplate opportunities to wear these nice pants

Finally received my first comment today on my heels, and a second one the same day!  

First was from a coworker at the break area.  “Those are fancy boots, they make you so tall.”  I think this is what most people see.  There is nothing outrageous about wearing black suede heels, and most people would take a passing glance and notice nothing more than dressy shoes that happen to have a heel.  

Second comment was from a male sales associate at Nieman Marcus Last Call.  He just said “Nice shoes!”  By the way, I have done a bit of shopping these days and finally discovered that Last Call has by far the most comprehensive selection of shoes in size 11+.  Literally, they have rows and rows of highest quality heels in large sizes, beyond anywhere else I have ever seen, and marked down to prices that make shopping anywhere else almost idiotic.  

I didn’t buy any shoes as I think I am quite satisfied right now, but I did come across a pair of lambskin pants that I had to get.  Again, my mind is a little blown at the discount price I paid for real lamb skin... and to think, it I didn’t have the creativity to just look around in the women’s section, I would have never seen it.
