@KrystofI waxed my legs without shaving them so it was painfull as hell. Also my girlfriend did it on my legs. She enjoyed it too much that I was in such pain. It hurts for 5 10 seconds max. So if You aren't ashame to wax Your legs go to a professional. Remember that men do that. Swimmers are great example. So just make appointment and go :). Feeling of stockings with freshly waxed legs are too good to pass it out.

@pebblesfYes she does allowing me more than I would imagine. Check photo below

Welcome to the forum mate, your story is also very similar to mine, nowadays i do wear heels and knee high boots out in public and I’m sure one day you will too, you’ll be surprised how you can integrate heels into male fashion and provide a masculine outfit, take a look at my Costa in boots thread in the guys section and you’ll see some of my styles, I’m looking forward to sharing more stories, pictures and experiences with you in the future.

      Happy heeling mate 

Thanks for saying Hi

I saw Your topic when I was browsing forum as a guest couple weeks back and even have photo of Your knee boots somewhere on my mobile. I like Your styling too, and I hope one day I will wear heels in public too, but I like more stiletto type of heel . One day I will open new topic with my adventures in heels. I have few stories to tell.

Thanks and cheers mate.

All of the most fascinating things I’ve ever learned were outside of school.  Never stop learning!

I agree. Life is a great teacher. School isn't.

The immense popularity of the new-fangled bicycle in the 1890s had a huge impact on women's fashion - and indeed on just about every other aspect of society. Women in particular took up cycling in vast numbers - here was mobility and liberation, and they seized it gleefully, and became one of the main drivers for the huge bicycle industry that flourished in that decade.  Pedalling a bicycle was much easier, neater and safer in bloomers and so came a sea change in fashion... 

Thank You very much @Shyheelsfor a lesson of history :). They should teach this kinda history facts in school.

@mlroseplant

Yeah, I guess You're right about "what x would say" part. Not many women knew and still doesn't know how heels started. Just like trousers. They were made for men, and women took them. I wonder what story is behind it(trousers). 

Even women doesn't understand themselves. My GF is a great example how it works. We bought same pair of otk boots. Now, she doesn't wear them too much because she said that I look better in them. I love her legs and how those boots look at her, and she still doesn't want to accept it. 

Hope You will find Your woman which will tolerate Your "hobby", and You will be happy with her. Those wishes are for all of You. 

Patrick.

@jeremy1986I think all European countries are conservative. Thank You for greetings and sure I will stay around as a part of community. I have plenty stories to tell and few photos to share !

@at9My two cents about company Fashion Style from Poland. I've been there twice in their shop and they also produce shoes in the same place, handmade ofc. I have two pair of shoes from them. Pointy stilettos with 13 cm heels without platform made out of leather. Comfy, walkable and nice looking. Second pair is python colored thigh high boots with 15 cm heels and 3 cm platforms. Most comfortable shoes I have in my collection. Maybe they are not a top notch in quality but miles ahead from China quality for sure. Sizes are good I have Male EU 43 and so I also picked EU 43 in both of shoes and they fit perfectly. 

Customer service in that shop was amazing. I called 2 hours earlier that I will be visiting them and I'm interested in shoes in 43 size. Lady prepared all shoes they had at place at that time in my size. They're like over 25 pairs waiting for me to try them on. Unfortunately I only took those 2 pairs above. 

PS. Be carefull when You pick something from that site. English on that page is awfull and misleading. 

Cheers,

Patrick

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. 

Balletboot and to all who have "troubles" with their better half. 

As a new member and as guest I was following this topic from start. We all know how hard is our passion, how happy can it be, how rewarding can it be. On my own I can say that our wife's, gfs, fiances and all women are hard to understand, they have different moods, different approach from us on many things, but one is common to all of us. We can't live without them. So we are doing everything to keep them happy. But...

Heeling for many of us is something that pleasure ourselves, those pair of heels make our day a better day. We know this, but our halfs don't know this feeling. Unfortunately for them it's only another pair of shoes. Its like for us casual pair of men shoes. 

My point is that we have something important for us. Heels. And our heels are main enemy to ours halfs because every woman needs to be in center of our attention. Maybe we all look better in heels than our halfs ?(at least in ours halfs minds). Maybe this is a problem ? I've seen many photos of You guys and damn, most of You if not all have great legs, and this is the reason for our halfs to behave like they do. We took feminine part of clothings and we look better than them. Maybe in the end of the day it's just envy ? Same thing goes when You're in public places and women are looking on us with envy and thinking "this guys moves and look better than me, let's mock with him". 

"convince women that we are not putting our masculinity on the shelf when we wear heels"

I agree with that also. Women are "weaker" than us and for that matter there is public thinking that men should protect them, give them safe feeling. Maybe if our woman saw us I heels they lost that idea of men being protective. 

@at9 I think it was my fault because. I wrote this story on my phone and pasted it over with dropbox. Thats why its looking odd. After 6 years of relationship I wish I didn't throw them away. 

@pebblesfYeah I assumed she would have negative reactions. Poland is very conservative country, so its hard to for example when man want to wear heels. My girlfriend was wearing and still wears heels with hosiery for me. After 2 years in that relationship(now we are 6 years together) I spoke with her about heels that I wish I could try to walk in them, how it would feel etc. So We both went to buy heels for me. Since then my collection is slowly growing. Her attitude is great having in mind conservative way to looks at certain things in our country, but at home I can freely walk in heels, at least when her daughter and mom aren't at home. She accept me in heels so I could live with it :). To be honest I have great stories about my heels adventures

Thank You both for warm welcome.

Cheers,

Patrick

Hi there. My name is Patrick, I'm from Poland and I'm 29. What is my story ? 

PS. I'm sorry for this wall of text, but I wanted to share with You.

Nothing fancy really. When I was teenager, I think i was like 12-13 years I noticed that part of women was wearing "strange"
type of shoes which was different from what men was wearing.
I was curious why. My mom was always wearing flats during all year and it was nothing too special. One day she was back from work and was carrying big box.
Box contained a pair of brown leather mid calf boots.
I think they were like 2 inch block heels on them, and pointy toes. Another Day mom left them in a closet and both of my parents went to work.
I Had to try them on but they were tight.
As a brilliant kid I searched for something that would help to Put them on. Socks where too thick. In the closet I found pair of 15 den stockings,
material was smooth so I took them.
I knew how to put them on, saw mother putting them on many times before. So I did it without destroying them. Now boots came so easy on my feet.
Feeling of it was amazing. I was walking in them for another 2-3 hours.
I was in love with feeling of that combo. Unfortunately my parents Splits 2 months later, so was those amazing stockings and boots.
I stayed with father. That was my first touch with heels to be honest and I felt in love with it. 
Few years later around my 22 birthday I lost a bet with good friend, so I had to walk in heels for a few kilometres from his house to mine(Result of that bet was on purpose of course).
I needed to buy a pair.
I've choosed a overknee latex-ish boots from Polish company called Fashion Style. I wear EU 43 so they were the only manufacturer who made such a large sizes.
I bought also a pair of nude stockings.
Combination of best feelings from my early years. It was wonderfull. I practiced walking in them for about 3 hours total before I had to finish my bet.
They had 13 cm heel with 2 cm platform.
So the DAY had to come and I went to my friend with a stockings under my jeans and boots in my bag. We went for a few drinks to a local pub.
After "party" we went to pick my boots from his car.
I put them on. I was still sober but few drinks gave me a courage to wear them in public. So with boots under my jeans and sound of heels
bouncing from flats all around we went for a walk to my flat.
He walked with me to a bench couple meters from my flat. He said "I didnt think You could do it, You have "balls"".
I changed those boots to my normal shoes just to enter flat and went for a sleep.
It was best experience I've Ever felt.
Unfortunately a year later I met my girlfriend who is with me to this day, so I had to throw away those boots. 

Well it is my real story how I started to love heels. If You like my story feel free to comment and I will add my current "heels status".
Again I apologise for a wall of text and for my english. 

Cheers,
Patrick
