Hello, 

Bambam. I don't know if I am not too late but I can recommend trying some chinese shops and search for high heel boots for men. They sometimes do sell "Men social shoes with heels even like 8 - 9 cm high.
I don't know if you would like them or no but that is how i started and also what i wore to dancing classes (if was a way to wear heels and looks "normal"). I know exactly what you mean by being unable to get normal heels and sadly I shared your pain untill a while ago when I changed my place of stay (on 4-month course now studying).

I personally use Wish. Can only say while it is a lower quality (tends to just be duration of the life or needing some small details fixed) it is definetly worth as a temporary solution to something longer lasting!

Good luck in your search.

I am very guilty of doing the same. When i am home alone i also have nice pair of heels Ï take into shower with me.
I dont know I just find it nice. 

Hello everyone, 

It's been a while. I just kind of went with my life and got little carried away by real life things that I kind of forgot about this place.

But I did remember a little earlier in the month and here I am again with some more heeling I am doing.

I did get myself 2 new pair of shoes both with 7+ cm stilleto heels. One pair is sandals and second one pumps. I am incredibly pumped to keep taking them out but need to always find a reason for it which may be the hard bit as I am outgoing personality. 

But today I am wearing the sandals to Prague as I need to sort out some administrative paperwork and be on my way. Might even visit some shops on the way back. 

Will give you a pic when I get back home. 

Also I now finally got myself the courage to fulfill something I was eager to do before. Going to dance lessons for high heels. I believe I wrote about little earlier but can give a recap if needed. 

And now I even have nice stockings that I can wear to fix the entire issue with leggings and shaving due to my current home being with parents. 

And I will wear the pumps or sandals to go there and back and have dancing shoes for the lessons themselves. 

Sadly my current work makes it unable for me to wear heels there due to huge amount of physical work that is not really wise doing in heels.

Have a lovely day all of ya and keep on heeling!

Anything else you wish to add: Kind of wish that my country wasnt so slow at adapting or changing as it is. Makes it hard to be able to get out or just do really anything. Mostly have to order from outside of country due to size issues. I also am looking forward to living on my own again and forever onwards as my current status of being with family makes me little more shy then I would like. But hey you guys did give me a lot of confidence and I am quite happy I found this place. Also quite scared I may be looking for someone in my life that doesnt exists. 

Happy heeling everyone!

Hello LovesHiHeels,

I did actually buy some heels even on wish and I have to say that I didnt have this experience as you did.
However I did have a similar issue happen to me. Boots were "delivered" but nowhere to be found. They did however allow me to refund the money throught the app so I didnt lose out on anything but I also got the boots later.
I did rebuy them from "someone else" as well so I received 2 pairs month later. (3 months from the original payment).

So in my words if it comes to wish. Buy stuff you like but do not expect them to come soon or anything. It either will come ussually not sooner then 1 month most of the time sometimes even few months. But it will come or you will get money. Sometimes both.

I hope I still could help even it was quite a late one.

I am going to be a student there. I imagine I will be the only guy there but ppl do not seem to mind around there so I am happy with that. I hope he can help me get more out and find someplace where to shop and stuff.

Its hard to get around in Czech Republic with high heeling as a man. People here are not the most change friendly and take a while but also the biggest size of woman shoes is 1-2 smaller then me. Sadly the 1 is only in sandals and my feet do not look nice at all.

I have some amazing news for some of you heel lovers out there.

I have managed to find out a place for High heel dancing lessons and not only that it is taught by man but also they do accept guys in there as well.
So I will be going there starting next year.

I have to say I am so excited about it.

For those who are interested it is being led by dancer and choreographer Filip Jankovič.

It does work quite well. The only downside is that the locking mechanism which are 2 pins on the inside of the shoe. One of them sometimes when you crouch or so just unlocks so you have to put it back together.

But mostly it seems to be fine.

Thank you Lads,

Well I no longer work in shoe shop full time. (I am there for part-time... its more of when they need me they call me otherwise i am not there sort of deal).
Last time I had them I had trousers over as I do not have any trousers that can fit in well and not cause problems.
But also these boots have the top part separable which allows you to wear them as ankle boots. And I do that slighty more often.

I am personally not sure about the no comments. Maybe people just do not care. I know for a fact they do notice. I mean you cannot miss me walking in these on wooden or tile floor.

Hello everyone,

So again for a while I did not say a word and some of you might be wondering how I am doing.
Well Uni is going decently well and my heeling is going great!

I have been in heels most of the time (time i couldn't due to small injury on my leg - which is fine now).

But these heels is something i am wearing quite often and I am loving them so much.
I don't actually get that many comments or anything about my footwear which i find odd but I actually am not bothered by it in the slighest.

Hello everyone,
I am back after a while as nothing really interesting happened in my life for now. But I did get accepted to uni which is amazing news indeed. But more importantly I did venture out in actually heels that are not wedges. (don't have photo yet).

I went to my ussual saturday shift but i decided to take the heels and from the entire journey nobody said a beep. Which in some ways suprised me as I was sure that everyone heard me walking in them. Not even in the shop nobody really cared.

I did decide to get some more heels and I can't wait for school to start. Looking forward to it.
 

Happy heeling everyone!

I see what you mean guys. I didnt look at it that way.

I guess being forced into heels and wearing them by choice can be a big difference just in mentality.
It would make sense that people that do not want to wear them would complain about being forced in them and feeling awful in them.

Although i have to say that stuff like wet floor and so on are just small things that the type of the shoe has something but little not that much to do with feeling of shoes. That comes to balance and there are dancers on high heels therefore you can definetly keep your balance.

What is a good way how to say it. It is a skill you need to practice and practice on to be good at it. I mean people will look at you no matter what you do in life. Wearing bright clothes also brings attention to you. So I think that is nothing one has to worry about.
I see the point of in winter pumps are not the most idea thing to have but that is why there are boots.

I guess from my perspective it can be a lot different then from others point of view. Well fault on my side with that.

Have fun heeling friends

Hi everyone to another journey that i took.

I did go to work again in the outfit showcased last time (black outfit with sneakers) and I had quite a busy 3 hour work session.
Gotta say that I do not comprehand why do all woman keep complaing about heels. I see no problem with them at all.

I think quite a few people noticed but none decided to say anything or show anything. I genuinly believe they really do not care a bit.
I think they do need to start creating more heeled shoes for men and I would say that it could become a thing.

I never enjoyed myself and got such a good mood from nothing as from heels. Well tbh I never had the opputurnity with s.o. but that will come with time.

So as promissed i said that i will give you what happened during my time out.

To be honest with you guys nothing interesting. Sadly i was trying to get home soon. So no venturing to shops or so. Will do some in like 2-3 weeks probably as i need to find a few things to wear for summer.

Again nobody cared at all which is really nice to know and I am happy with it.

I have to say that the more i go outside the happier of a person I am. This is really big for me as I do suffer from deppression even tho I am not really into trying to get rid of it. (my bad)
So this picture is just from my home. After arriving and almost sending this :-)

Hi @bandit40 they are not a brand. I think they are just nonames that is probably why they didnt cost insane amounts of money as I was unable to find this type of a shoe somewhat cheaper then the brand ones which cost way too much for the start and my financial situation

Congrats @Krystof. You certainly shouldn't have any issues with these as to can't even see the heel. How high is the heel?

Am sure the leggings will go well with them. As you say, do show us the look and tell us how it went. 

BTW. When you say you can show more, you mean because of the attachment limit?

Hi @jeremy1986 I though the same about not being visible. They are 8,5 cm high with a 3 cm high platform.

Planning on getting some photos of me in them so that will come on the post on that day.

And yes attachment limit kind of screwed me. I think I may be able to get more shown soon.

Good heeling everyone.

Amazing news.

My wedged sneakers I got to wear to school have finally arrived. They fit really well and feel amazing to walk in. So excited to take the out this saturday.

I even have somewhat cool "leggings" to go with it. Its not exactly that but close enough. Very thin completely black trousers. (Not the ones on photo).

I will say more when I return about how it went. So expect some experience on saturday or sunday.

Good heeling everybody.

Ps: Would love to add more but can not do that :-(

In my opinion wearing sandals/pumps with a skirt/dress needs smooth legs. Open toes require a pedicure, although open toes in a work environment are often a  bit of a no no, I wear pumps to work, but would never be allowed to wear some of my peeps, or mules etc to work. As a full time heel wearer I feel that showing my toes is definitely sort of flirtier than closed toe shoes so I wouldn't do it in a work capacity.

I would recommend waxing (shave to approx 5mm length for best results, and then wax, best to get it done professionally because it is much quicker and hurts much less being done to you, rather than doing it yourself. The waxing results last longer than shaving and hair regrowth gets continually finer and continually easier to wax. Shaving makes hair regrowth coarser.

If you are going to wear a skirt or a dress regularly like I do, then what I chose was to get IPL/VPL permanent hair removal, where you can shave your legs between treatments (to keep presentable in short term) , each treatment takes a little longer than the waxing treatment, but they are typically 6-8 weeks apart, instead of monthly waxing, and the hair never regrows - after an average of 6 of these IPL/VPLs treatments you will have perfectly hairless legs all the time. No need to have anything done anymore, you can wear a skirt/short shorts etc with bare legs anytime.

Whatever you are doing you'll need to exfoliate and then moisturise your legs thoroughly every day. If waxing/shaving this will really help avoid ingrown hairs, and over time it ensures your legs are very smooth and even skin consistency.

The trick to showing your legs is having good legs. I found that its easy to wear a shorter dress/skirt once I felt comfortable in my mind that my legs looked ok. Then you find you can work some of the neat fashion hosiery thats out there too !

Hope this helps

 

 

Hi @nzfreestyler. Oh my this is so much information. Thank you that is incredibly helpfull for me. Definetly will make sure i read it again once it becomes more relevant. Right now just sticking to heels. I mean as long as I will live with my family. But thank you.

Keep up the tips I really appreciate that.

Hi @Krystof, I liked Your adventure and first steps in heels. It looks like you're having fun in them :). 

For shaving your legs I recommend for first time using classic razor and then using sticking plasters with wax on them. This way You should have smooth legs even for 2-3 weeks. And then just regularly use those wax plasters. 

What part of Czech are You ? I have like 30 km to Ostrava from Poland and my place. 

Hi @WenHH for sure I am.

Thanks for the tip I will remember it for the future, most likely will not go for dresses/skirts untill I live alone but its good to know what other people do. Does it hurt a lot or is it another one of those myths same as that heels hurt like hell? Which is very wrong.

I live in Úvaly which is located just east of Prague. Sadly quite the distance between us.

I am quite intrigued into dresses as I absolutely love coats and dresses are the closest to that for other then winter times.

Also not a big fan of trousers period :-(. Dresses look so much better. Hope that world would decide its better to let man dress however they wont without judging them. I guess the heels are closing in on that.

I am back again so as I said today earlier, these wedges sandals I am wearing at home every day. Right now it is with stockings due to cold weather but during summer I think I will wear then on skin.

Hey dear heeling friends.

I have been to the practice lessons for the uni entrance exams. And it was with the wedges that are up there.

Still waiting for my new pair of sneakers, too excited.

I also did get new wedged sandals for home shoes purpose and I will get a foto of them once I get home.

However about my time out. Well I do not think anything interesting happened. Nobody noticed or paid attention as far as being out loud goes. I think most of them (there was 16) of us noticed at some point but nothing said.

We did however had an interesting experience getting into the building.

They have a door that can only be opened by card or by ring (where you ring someone and they can open the door). Yet the ring was not working and nobody had a card that could open it. So like 8 of us was stuck in front of the door waiting.

Our lecturer did walk downstairs to get us in the end but it did take a while.

In the end I enjoyed my time in heels and I know that I will be sticking to it for the entire uni.

Also I think that thanks to heels I will learn to walk with my back straight.

Still unsure what to do during the summer as I am not completely confident going out in sandals yet.

Also what are your tips about shaving legs and so. I know I should do it if I want to be ever wearing heels with shorter trousers or shorts (skirt and dresses). I just can not make myself to do it.

Hello everyone, sorry for the small delay, had other things on my mind.

I did decide to go to work in the wedges seen at the beggining on saturday again. This time however our new member was with me and she did not even noticed the fact i am taller.
It felt so good to be in heels the entire time and people not even paying attention to it. I am starting to get used to not carring at all even if they do notice. That is a nice improvement if i say so myself.

This saturday i have a lesson from school for learning on enter exams for uni. I might get my new wedges on Friday but if I do not have them I will wear them ones at the top. So excited about this.

For sure, high heels are the footwear many males enjoy and prefer to wear, also. I use to think that males had a feminine side that caused this desire. Since then I have learned that heels actually started as male footwear that females desired to wear that was viewed as becoming more manly. So they are just another choice of apparel for our feet. It's the social attitude that has assigned who can wear what, that promotes the shame for wearing the apparel it didn't assign for you. The social assigning of apparel goes against people's natural ability to know what they personally want to wear. Apparel from lingerie to coats and from hats to shoes doesn't have any natural assignment as to who can choose to wear it. Anybody can wear the heels of the height, style, and type they have the taste and desire for and there certainly is an array of footwear selections.  

Hello and welcome,

This is very true indeed, sadly enough many people do not actually see this as a thing. They are stuck in their head.

That is why we must show the world that we have different desires.

Have fun heeling around.

PS: Realy nice heels, I love them sadly enough was not able to find my size yet.

well done @Krystof - good for you, I know how much courage you must have needed for this!  These boots look really great on you... I really like the style, they look so cosy. am wearing them with tights am sure just makes them even more pleasurable to wear, right?

Where did you get these wedge boots from?

and wow - working in a shoe shop - wow, that's probably a dream of most folks here!! Maybe you can make a special order for larger sizes? As others have said, I assume your fellow associates at the store would not be off-put by you wearing heels... especially if they are as tasteful as these. 

Keep going and enjoying! 

Thank you.

I wear tights as it looks better and goes well with heels. Also I use it as a cover too.

I got these wedged shoes from czech e-shop called "pošta zdarma".

Sadly enough I doubt I will ever make us get bigger then eu 42 sizes.

Also I am slightly scared saying or showing anything to my workmates as they are conservative and unless I get to somehow get to it by random activity I will not be wearing heels with me not being alone here.

Thank you everyone,

Although I did wear heels into the store I only did it cause I was there alone with no other workmates. (I do not think their reaction would be the best but if I ever get a chance to change that I will try it.) Otherwise I just wear normal shoes.
I do plan from October when my university should start only going out in heels. Need to find some that are not so warm for the autumm but it is a plan of mine that I am sticking to.

However I do love working in a shop likes this as I was able to find my correct size, try on some stuff and so on. (all done when I was alone) and I did find a few that I wanted but we did not have the right size :-(.
 

I would love to inspire people to wear more heels.

And to the question why have I not done it sooner? Well did not have anything to walk in back here in czech republic. It is hard to find eu 42 size and even harder to find 43. I need 43 closed and I can have 42 but only sandals. If I would be able to get some more I will do so real fast :-).

And yes I am currently in Czech Republic. I may move to england I may not. Depends mostly on my potentional S.O.

As I am writing this I am wearing the wedges at home.
Keep up the good heeling lads.
