I can sympathise with Alex, I picked up a pair of 6" pumps (mens 7), and while I can stand in them I tend to develop cramps when I try to walk. I can actually stand up longer and move around easier in my ballet heels.. which is odd. As it's been said, Practice makes perfect Seeya Jim

While I do not feel waiting till marrage to have sex is out-dated, for some of us marrage is not an option. There are plenty of risks related to sleeping around, tis why I went a couple years between doing anything with anyone till I found someone special that I'm still with a year and a half later It's definatly a personal matter, and I never hold it against a friend if they play the field, although I would definatly keep that in mind if I was to develop a relationship with someone. You just can't overlook that in these times. Besides, it feels alot better to wake up next to someone who's still there after they learn about your odd quirks, and who you're still next to after you learn about theirs Have a good one Jim

Only once did I attempt to drive with my LSB ballet boots.. and it was at 4am when very little traffic was around. Of course, driving was pretty easy compared to the walk down stairs to get to the parking lot.. then the down angle on the pavement was fun.. not to mention not realizing just what a PITA the seed's from my neighbors tree can be while going from my vehicle to the mailbox, back into my place. I have worn 4.5" heels on drives across Aligator Ally a few times, with little problem. Jim

Heels.. (HA!)

Well, my bf showed a friend of his some pics of me in my boots last night. The comment was "my god, I'd break my ankles trying to walk in those" Things may be looking up. Seeya Jim

Hrm.. no "puts up with it, but not in public" answer on this one..

Tellico area maybe? I'm planning a trip up there soon actually.. see what a stock TJ rubicon is capable of, and what I really need to modify. Should be a fun run... I just need to clear out a fri-mon that my b/f can get up there. He's got a few 'odd' friends in Atlanta he wants to visit while we are up there. Seeya Jim

Ooops..

I knew I should have previewed that post..

Well.. my Jeep wouldnt exactly fall into the heel friendly catagory.. nor will the places it can get to..

Although, I have had decent experience driving my astro van (work van) in the mornings/afternoons wearing heels, but thats mostly before or after rush hour on a pretty long boring road.

Although, if looking for a reason to keep a pair of driving shoes with the car a Lotus wouldnt be a bad one.

I ordered a pair of knee high ballet boots from archenemys a couple years ago. It would make sense if they were selling LSB boots, since mine do look exactly like the LSB models, but I do wonder if they buy from LSB but have LSB use less expencive leathers... Teri from bootlovers mentions her LSB ballet boots are made from extreamly soft leather.. yet mine are a bit stiff.. My qualifetish boots are definatly extreamly soft leather, but provide adaquet support. Having LSB make boots custom per order would definatly explain why arch enemys took 5-6 months to get my boots to me. If they'd only mention to customers on their site that some custom orders take longer then others they would have a few more fans Seeya Jim

Ok.. This is probably pretty basic but I do not remember them covering "how to store thigh high leather boots" in home-ec class.. maybe I was out sick that day *Shrug*.. Whats the best way to store leather boots when not in use? I only have a couple pairs that are tall enough to need to worry about, but I'm hoping to keep them in good shape for as long as possible Any suggestions? I'm sure I'm not the only person who's ever incorrectly stored some boots and found them in less then optimal shape afterwards. Jim

Those are the same as the thigh high zip up boots I just got. I actually got them to give me a good price ($395) for a pair in red leather, since they had them in stock and I was looking for black. Awesome boots, I like them quite a lot have a good one Jim

While I obviously enjoy ballet heels (I have 3 pairs), I can see how someone may not find them visually apealing, I'm not a fan of sandals or other strappy shoes.. So it's good that there is enough of a variety of shoes out there to keep most people happy. I'm fortunate that I drive near a store in Ft Lauderdale that carries ballet heels, and thus have been able to try them out prior to owning a pair. Maybe we could get a list together of stores that have been known to stock a pair or so of ballet heels so people know where to shop at I may be wearing my ankle high bb's to a club tonight, havnt decided yet.. If I do I'll make sure to get a picture or two to share. Seeya Jim
