Kittyinboots

Perhaps with 2 feet of snow, you could have an excuse to wear thigh high boots. If the snow is over the knee, then it's time to wear OTK boots!

I have always wanted to go to a shopping mall in my boots. Some people wear their heels at malls to be seen. But for me it is not practical, because there will be a lot of walking involved. Although I have made big strides and increased my daytime heeling, going out in public in boots is still a challenge for me. But in my own dream world, if I could go anywhere in boots with no negative reactions, stares, double takes, or even foot pain, it would be a mall.

My first pair of high heel boots was purchased at a resale shop. In fact it took courage just to buy them. I was eyeing this pair of 80's style black leather boots, pull on, straight leg shaft with a 4 inch heel, only seven dollars, used. I was very interested in buying them, but was afraid of a reaction from the cashier. So I went into the dressing room to try them on, and for privacy. But I could not get them on, and even worse, it was hard to pull off. I was thinking to myself I might have to face the embarrassment of calling someone to help me pull off the boot. After a little patience, it finally came off. So I walked out that day with no purchase, feeling defeated. The next day, I decided I would try again to purchase the boots and just ease into them at home. I just broke down and immediately grabbed that same pair and headed straight to the cashier. I just hoped that it would be no big deal. Fortunately they rang up my purchase without question and I was glad to bring them home, where I could try to slowly stretch them out. I wore thin dress socks to help ease my way into them. After several patient attempts of pulling on and off my boots, I succeeded in putting both of them on. I looked at the pair in the mirror and absolutely loved the way they looked on me. So I was content with wearing my new black high heel boots in the privacy of my own room, behind closed doors. Eventually I would develop the courage to go outside in public in my boots, but that is another story, another post.

Boots, of course. Once again, here is a picture of my brown boots from my avatar.

I like the thigh high boots in this video. Adam Ant's costume goes well with his boots, also a nice pair. Thanks for posting.

And the classic TV-series 'V' also has Diana, wearing highheeled boots.

It's very hard to find any pictures of her in full, showing the boots. Also hard to find scenes in the videos were you see the boots, but for those of you who have the videos, it's time to take them out and look at the serie again.

I think it's only Diana who wears boots, but they are nice looking black kneehigh with a stilettoe heel of maybe 4".

First a pic of Diana in boots (not showing the heel):

Here you can see here boots.

In my search, I also stumbled on the remake of V from 2009.

Here is the site and the first video shows a short glimps of some nice heels and boots:

Thanks for sharing these pictures. I preferred the original V series for that same reason. Diana (Jane Badler) looked so powerful in her boots. And her overall costume is stunning.

I have only seen the first episode of the new V series. Although the effects and technology are better, it does not compare to the original.

Two days ago my wife asked me to come out of our apartment and help her bring in groceries, so I came out in my brown boots, not a word was said about them. Yesterday I changed into my boots for the ride home, my wife was still napping when I arrived. So I spent much of the evening lounging around in boots. When she woke up she was still very glad to see me. We spent part of our New Years Eve sharing a few kisses on the couch, boots still on. My wife's feelings about my boots hasn't changed, but she was just simply missing me and just didn't care what I had on at that time. But I am also aware that I just got lucky and caught her in a good mood. But it was pretty cool that she did not say anything about my boots, as if she truly accepts me for who I am and not what I wear. I can live with just tolerance and acceptance of my boots. But I can always dream about encouragement, support and heeling out in public together. It was nice these last few days to go out in high heel boots.

The Paul Bond boots arrived today. They look, fit, and feel great. The boot tops are 16 inches and the heels are about 4 1/4 inches at the back.

Nice boots. So that would be 20 inches tall with the heels, right? Do you tuck your pants into your boots? Such a nice pair, you should show them off fully exposed.

It's probably no big deal for the First Lady of the US ordering boots with a flat heel. But if Michelle Obama ordered thigh high boots with a 4" heel, now that would really be a story, and turn a lot of heads!

This incident actually happen or is it a case of "you scoping out possible reactions?

If is a real happening, she might begin to put "2" and "2" together and discover that what you said is providing some answers to your past behavior. Even though you have opened the door, be very careful how you go through it.

lilgis - I pretty much had to joke about it with my wife, gradually ease her into telling her about my boots. So she would see a pair of sexy thigh high boots on television and say that she likes them. I would say back "they look like mine", to which she would raise an eyebrow. After several times of joking about my boots, she figured out that I was serious. But for me I found this to be an easier, gentle way of telling my wife without saying directly, "I have something to tell you."

Today I toned down my outing in boots. My wife has sort of come to terms and accepts that I will wear my boots in public. She is not thrilled about them and would rather not see me in them. But I made a compromise. I told her that I was running a few errands, getting gas and making an ATM deposit. I told her that I would be going out in my brown boots, but if she wanted to come along we could stop by Starbucks Coffee. She asked if we could just do the drive through window. I was willing to compromise since I already paid for gas inside the store in boots.

This is my way of letting it rest and not going overboard about heeling in public. But on our way home she also told me that she loved me and I told her that I loved her.

well theres this young glam rocker teen in Germany on youtube who has his own channel (his name is called rubberturk for those who want to visit it) & he loves his high heel over knee boots (hes got several different pair I think) & on a few of his videos he has put on some thrash metal music like motley crue for the background soundtrack.

I have seen his video postings. I like his boots, yet his overall look is too over the top for my tastes. His fetish for latex and corsets would probably not do well for posting at High Heel Place, maybe some other web site.

I prefer boots that are pointed toe, with a slightly rounded toe. My boots in my avatar and my cowboy boots are both pointy rounded toes. So I am not into boots that are strictly square or rounded. And boots/shoes that are too long and pointy are bit of an eye magnet in my opinion, can't help but look down at someone's extreme pointy toes.

I do find second hand shoes to be interesting since I prefer vintage 80's style boots. Second hand boots were easier to buy for me, at least my purchases were confidential. As of this moment I have yet to buy a pair of boots at a shoe store, mostly because the current styles do not appeal to me. My first pair of vintage high heel boots and my current pair were both purchased second hand. The first pair was purchased at a resale store (in and out with no questions asked), all my other pairs of knee high, high heel boots were purchased on Ebay. Buying boots online has helped me to keep my purchases confidential. On a side note my only new pair of boots was ordered online, I bought Ellie #8868, black thigh high boots with 4" stiletto heels.

Same here, not a big fan of boots that are more like sandals. The second a boot has too many cutouts, or peep toes, it is no longer a boot in my opinion. It becomes a sandal. It defeats the purpose of making it look like a boot, since a boot should be a protective covering that covers the entire foot. Although the singer in this clip looks very sexy in them.

Here is another video on thigh boots in fashion. They recommend thigh boots with tight jeans, short skirts or leggings (sound familiar?). The last comment is, “and why not for men to?”

The Thigh boots section starts at 13:30 and goes through 18:15.

I like that first black pair at 14:10, a nice straight leg shaft and slightly thicker spike heel. Very much like an 80s style, much like my boots in my avatar. If that style, shape and color were more readily available in the US, I would get a pair.

FYI, I watched the entire episode, very interesting topics.

Another way of looking at the Twitter situation is that "it goes with the territory". When you post on the web, you are exposing yourself to the general public. Much like wearing your heels out in public, it goes with the territory. You can expect to get a few negative reactions, double takes, snickers, people taking your picture, and even running into someone you know. So in this case I would have to let it slide since I asked for attention. Just my thoughts in addition to what was said by other members.

Like I said---if the girls can do it that way, why can't we do it too. It is time for all men to tuck their clothes into their boots that they wear, male or female style boots.

Cheers---

That is how I wear my boots. I go out with jeans tucked in, boots fully exposed.

Bootking - That is a nice pair of boots. It looks great with jeans tucked in. I would recommend your pic DSCN6926.jpg as a possible avatar pic.

Hello from a fellow Chicago area member. Hopefully they will plan another Chicago heel meet for 2010, then you could show off your heels.

NH Heels, What a coincidence that both of us had our breakthrough weeks of heeling, at almost the same time, recently. I feel that my recent outings in boots brought me a little bit closer to my wife, and made me appreciate what I have. I won't take her for granted. I enjoyed reading your posts.

It just came naturally to me to wear high heel boots out in public. For the first five years of my heeling, I had just one pair of black knee high vintage 80s style boots (straight leg shaft) with a 4" heel. At first it was just a thrill to wear my black boots on at all behind closed doors in my bedroom, then progress to taking a few steps out into the living room and kitchen when no one is around. I made it even further by walking down the hall outside of our apartment to dispose of trash down a garbage chute. Then I took a big step by venturing out of the apartment at night when there is no one around, going out in small trips to remote areas. It was simple outings, like returning a tape rental to a local Blockbuster Video, ordering fast food from a drive through window, or going to a post office lobby after hours and mailing letters or buying stamps from a vending machine. I became even more daring by paying utility bills in person at my local cable company or auto insurance office during their last hour before closing. Since at that time of night, I would be all alone or one other person waiting in line. For the most part I kept challenging myself to go further and go more in public. It was never enough to keep my boots indoors. In more recent years with my current boots from my avatar, I ventured out during early morning to pump gas, or drop off shirts at my local dry cleaners, or a quick purchase at a convenience store. As of this last week, I made my most daring outings in boots in broad daylight with my wife by taking her to Starbucks, post office, crowded grocery stores, even the movie theater. So there is still room for more adventurous outings. But so far my wife is my only family member that knows about my boots. So it came to me naturally but this web site has encouraged me to keep on heeling. As mentioned by other members, it takes time and practice. Take small steps at first, and over time your courage will increase.

Good for you. Having ventured out to Starbucks in my brown high heel boots today as well, I would say that Starbucks Coffee is a great place to start out wearing heels.

Today I had an interesting outing in my brown high heel boots from my avatar with a little bit of a twist. My wife came along with me on my errands. She needed to go to an ATM, so we stopped by a European grocery store with our branch bank inside. I thought I was going to wait in my car while she runs in and makes a withdrawal. She said she also needed to pick up some groceries. But then she asked me if I was coming in with her to the store. I said to myself, this is the same woman who does not approve of my boots. This is a grocery store on the other side of town, where nobody knows us. So I thought it out and said to myself, "Why not?", just going into a crowded supermarket for the first time wearing my boots fully exposed. So we walked towards the entrance, we noticed the reflection of my boots in the store window, and I heard a groan from my wife. She was probably thinking to herself, "Did I just invite my husband to come in with me to the store wearing those boots?", well it was too late to turn back. So we went about our business, as did everyone else. It seemed as if no one was paying attention. We left the store, and thankfully it was another uneventful outing. To thank her for tolerating my boots, we made another stop at Starbucks Coffee for a latte and brownie. We even went to another less crowded grocery store and picked up a few more items. Later that afternoon, she thanked me for a nice morning outing. I think it was Starbucks that made her day.

Today I had my biggest outing ever in my brown high heel boots. Today I went all over town with my brown high heel boots on, jeans tucked in. It was my first time going with my wife to public places wearing my boots. I took my wife to Starbucks Coffee, she was just happy to be enjoying a latte. I enjoyed drinking my frappucino, sitting down with my legs crossed admiring the look of my boots. There were no stares or double takes. Everybody was just minding their own business. We stopped by a dollar store and picked up a few items. I walked into a post office for stamps. Then we went to her pharmacy to drop off a prescription. So the morning in boots lasted about 2.5 hours. Later that evening I put my boots back on and I took my wife to the movies. It was my first movie outing with my wife wearing my favorite boots. She was happy that I took her to see Michael Jackson: This Is It. Since it was a weekday, it was a slow night at the theater, which was exactly how I like it since it is dark in the theater and there aren't too many people around on a weeknight. The evening in boots lasted about 3.5 hours. Although my wife does not approve of my boot wearing in public, she is still loving and accommodating since I took her to places she wanted to go. She is slowly accepting me in heels and getting used to it. I just need to continue to make it worth her while by taking her on fun outings. With about six total hours of boot wearing, this was my longest day in heels. And since it was uneventful, it made this day even more special. Going out in boots in public with my wife has increased my courage and overall confidence level. I would say it went up from 40 percent to 60 percent. My highest confidence level is still wearing my tall black Western Ranch cowboy boots at 95 percent. I am very grateful to have my loving wife who is willing to compromise.

In addition to what everybody else feels in their posts, in one word I feel special in my high heel boots. I feel special since I feel that I am able to pull off a look that even some women can't pull off. To me it is important to stay in shape and maintain a good figure. As said by other members, the presentation of heels is reflected in the total package. Everything from the clothes, accessories, and the physical aspects, complete the image.

I am about 5' 5" to 5' 6" with no heels. But one thing about being smaller is I can fit into a women's size 8-9 boot. I do feel about 5'10" tall in my brown high heel boots.
