NH Heels

TBG - Good one!  I missed it the first time I read it.

RonC - Like I said, the only place I found that exact boot was at the outlet.  Good luck on your search!  I actually like the clicking sound.  It can be a little unnerving when your trying to be discreet though.  Good tip on filling the heel and replacing the cap with rubber.

Steve - Isn't that always the way?

Thanks for the comments guys!  The name on the box says Brynngd, and yes it's about a 3 1/2 in heel.  They are very discreet under longer jeans except for the plastic heel which clicks pretty loudly.  I bought them from the outlet store and haven't seen them any where else so I'm not sure about larger sizes.  My wife and I are pretty close in size so we are sometimes able to borrow from each others closets which is fun.  (I will be borrowing her brown boots as I actually fit in her 9 1/2's and she's ok with it.)  PS  I wore mine out food shopping with my wife again tonight which somehow made food shopping much more fun!  Cheers, Jim

I know it's been a long time since I last posted but I got these boots just after Christmas and wanted to share.  They're Nine West 3 1/2 inch block heel knee boots that I found while out shopping for my wife but didn't want to buy myself a Christmas present.  We went back together to the outlet in Merrimack, NH where I had found them (I had bought my wife a gift card to Nine West so we would have to go back)  I got mine size 10 in black and she bought the same pair in brown size 9 1/2.  We both love the boots and have spent some time out and about in them together.  In the course of a week I've worn them to church with family, out to dinner and shopping with my wife and to dinner at my parents.  Granted I wear them with longer cut jeans that cover most of the heel but they have already been a huge confidence booster for me!  I've spent many years hiding even though my wife is very supportive and my immediate family and very close friends know.

@ saudade, those are awesome! Good choice!!

Sadly I have doubts all the time which keep me from heeling, posting here and doing a lot of things that I enjoy. I also have a closet full of boots, a supportive wife and this forum. Keep your chin up, we found this group for a reason!

Thanks Jeff, here's a pic of the red cowboy boots. They were an ebay find from years ago that I paid way to much for. They have about a 2 inch heel and some of the pointiest toes I've ever seen, but are very comfortable to wear. Even though I really love them they've seen limited wear. Cheer, Jim

I've done it many times. Always with my wife with longer jeans over boots that I'm comfortable walking in.

Congratulations to you for reaching 500 posts and 2 years here at hhplace! Just remember that you are becoming as much of an inspiration to others as they are to you. I've enjoyed reading your posts and look forward to your next 500. Cheers, Jim

Thanks Henri! I did check in every now and the, just never had anything positive to report.

Thanks guys, anxiety and depression can be hard to overcome but I'm trying. I just want to feel comfortable in my own skin and there are times where all the support in the world just doesn't help. Reading about the adventures of others here is an inspiration and I hope that I can contribute some also. Cheers, Jim

I've worn my black 4" cowboy boots with heels fully exposed many times to church with my wife, parents and my younger sister. Even though I've never had any comments that's about as far as I'd go.

Very nice boots, blueparrot!

So, I realize that I haven't been around in a while. I've been dealing with some personal issued which have made it emotionally impossible to do any public healing. Recently though, I bought a new pair of boots that may help change that. I also have recently had a rather frank discussion on the subcject of my healing with my father even though he realy already knew. Still it was nice to get it off my chest and he seemed to be more than understanding. Also, my wife recently made a new friend that I had the pleasure of meeting. She inserted herself into a shoe shopping trip with us the following day, even though she had to back out at the last minute. She seemed to be a very opened minded person and I felt compelled to explain that while I didn't mind her coming, she should be aware that I shop both sides of the isle(because I was not about to let her ruin our shopping adventure.) To which she exclaimed that she knew she like me. Mind you when we met I was wearing my bright red cowboy boots which in her words were "absolutely fabulous". Any way, after stopping in a few stores and not finding anything, we stopped into Marshall's where I found a pair of black 3" covered wedge knee boots, that I fell in love with. At $39 they were a bargain. Today I wore them under longer jeans with a maroon v neck tee, while the wife and I went shopping. A stop at Home Depot, Kohls, the new local outlet mall, and then food shopping. All a non event and a very good time. No spike in blood preasure or shaky hands which on a few failed attempts to leave the house in the recently made me abort and change before heading out. Sorry to ramble, but as I said it's been a while and just wanted to share. Cheers, Jim

TBG, glad to hear things went well and that you'll soon heeling with both feet again soon. Jim

TBG, Thanks for continuing to post. Always an enjoyable read! Thanks again, Jim.

The wife and I are headed to the Tilton, NH outlets tomorrow! Can't wait to check out the Nine West store. Will let everyone know what I wear and what I find. Jim

As usual, another awesome outing. I only wish that I had half the self confidence that you do.

Wow! Don't know what else to say.

My "first" pair was my mothers brown block heel knee boots. I was probably 6 or 7 years old when I first tried them on even though they were way too big for me. I would sneak and wear them any chance I got. Eventually those boots did fit me as did all of her other shoes and boots. I'll never understand quite what the infatuation was but I know for sure that it's never gone away.

Thanks again everyone for following my journey even though I don't post very often. Even though todays "adventure" doesn't have anything to do with heeling I feel it's worth relating to you all. I have for the past 3 year tried to hide the fact that I have both of my nipples pierced from as many people as possible. This has meant not going swimming in my parents or other family members pools because I would have to take my shirt off. Today for the first time while at my parents house celebrating Father's Day, with a lot of apprehension I put on my swim suit and took off my tshirt not really knowing what to expect and went in the pool. Not only did my younger sister tell me that she didn't mind, she was suprised by the fact that I had been hiding it for the past 3 years. My father basically said that he had figured it out sometime ago because he had noticed them through my tshirts. I had already told my brother and mother and naturally my wife new about it so they were'nt an issue. After all of my worrying, it turned out to be no big deal. I guess the point that I want to make is this: You really can hide much from those that love you and know you the best and sometimes you may be pleasantly suprised by how accepting they can be. All of this time I've been so nervous of what my Dad and my sister would think and how they would react and it was such a non issue. This has become just another step in accepting myself for who I am. What a day! Thanks for reading, Jim

Thanks again for yet another inspirational outing. Jim
