Jimmy Choo Mitchel 100 boot.  Found a price I couldn't refuse. They are probably the most comfortable heels I've got. 

Ok, I think I’ve posted these separate, but think the progression might be interesting, from thinnest to thickest heels, and bonus “how I normally wear heels when not sure I want to be blatant about heels”

These are the thinnest stilettos I have. I worry about getting them stuck in sidewalks.

Next thicker I really like. Same as the new wedges I have so I’ve been wearing my wedges a lot to get used to 4.5” heels in the real world before I wear down the heel tips.

Thickest are very comfortable, I’ve even worn them around a Disney Park. 4” is a comfortable height, and I could probably live in these boots. Same boots in the last photo. Basically incognito mode. You can see a little heel but most people never notice.

(edit: last two are in the wrong order)

I’ve got a higher probability of facial injury then toes at jobsites, so i am less worried about steel toes.

Well, they do not show the internal wedge heel. Trust me, my Sportiva Olympus Mons Evo’s might have a thicker sole, but not as much heel lift. I’ve wondered about fitting a wedge boot into the outer boot, but why add the risk?

edit: maybe I’m not the only person in the world with mountaineering and heeled boots sharing a shelf...

i have a pair of these, and they are pretty well invisible at jobsites. Most places that require steel toes also accept them. The heel isn’t spectacular, but ya do what ya can.

I think it is really cool to see couples who share the love for heels not everyone is able to do that so if you can be proud show the group pics of them 

this thread was done recently.

When using my phone I use the 10 second timer and a chip clip as a tripod to keep the phone from falling over.

In a lifetime of travelling, through many, many countries and on every continent I have never seen a guy in heels. Not once.

I have, but only low heels in public.

To our happy heelers :  Question : Do these come under the heading of Wedges ?  Or they in a class of their own ?

Pony boots? I had a pair with hooves.

Lovely wedge bootie!  This should be in the wedge thread too  

Can we see the back of the heel? how wide is it?  And I assume it had a zip?

Not stiletto narrow, and I can walk in the yard. Normal inside zip.

Another pair from Therealreal, CL wedge ankle boots with a 4.5” heel in size 41. Very comfortable

Maybe these one. Too high? Available in any color and men sizes. Very comfy. 

Italian heels. 

How is the sizing on those? I've got a couple pairs from Italian Heels but I seem to be between 40.5 and 41.

too bad they do not show him in heels.

I have a pair of pants from Volcom that I like to wear with boots. With pumps I e got a pair of Levi’s 510, but I’m trying to find a better option.

Rag and Bome lace up boots off Therealreal. I’d tried a pair on at a Last Call and regret not buying those, but this pair was cheaper. So far they are comfortable. I think I’ll enjoy these

Congratulations on graduation, and I wish you the very best in your future. Try not to forget about us again

I was well aware of this concern when my husband suggested we install wood floors in our house. I made sure to pick one that would have little issue, but I also cannot have metal heel tips.

I’ve only been to Vegas once. I should have brought 4” heels to wear out, as I only ventured into the casino once in the 5” boots I had with me.

And i'd venture to guess, most didn't dress as some would expect a gay group too. That's what I find hilarious. All the gay men I know, and I know quite a few, don't dress any different than straight men. I find they dress a bit better, but not different.

Other then pink skate laces and a rainbow Jersey I suspect this is not much different then a photo of any pickup hockey game between friends.

Stories such as this just seem to confirm in the minds of some that any guy who wears high heels is automatically homosexual.  A shame. 

Straight, gay, who cares?  I wear heels because I like to.....   Take care all.....    sf

I was just at an event with 160 gay males, and I was the only one who spent any time wearing heels.

A few of us did try that line on the quartermaster when it came time to return the boots. It got a laugh - and a request for the boots. On the other hand the so-called 'Bunny Boots" issued by the US Antarctic Program are truly hideous. And required to be worn when you're down there. Ghastly things. I was constantly in trouble for not wearing mine and going with my Scarpa mountaineering boos instead. 

One of my non heel interests is cold weather gear. Yea, my bunny boots do not get much use, but my La sportiva Mons Evo are quite comfortable, if I ever get to the top of Everest.

This is my TNF Himalayan suit, I have a pic of my new Millet down suit and ballet boots but that pic would violate the TOS here.

@CAT You have more pairs then me! I've got the rubber wedges in red, three pairs of Joan ankle boots, and one pair of Conquest. I do also have a pair of Snowlion's, not useful in Miami though.

Yea, do not expect them to show up looking like the photo. Also very much plastic. 

Maninboots: They are not really for outside of the house except for specific events
