So I love my wife, and there are a million reasons! Now, there's one more!

I had shown her these boots a few days ago, and she had been on the fence about letting me get them. Not because of how feminine they are, because she is still getting used to that, but she is frugal and didn't know about me spending that much money.

However, I was sad to see they sold out of my size, 10, until I found them on eBay brand new in box for $74.99!

This morning, she told me she loved me, and finally gave in, letting me order them! I have to wait a looooong while before I bug her for more boots, but this will make the experience of getting these and showing them off that much more significant!

Here is the link to them on the Nine West website:

I purchased them in black.

Great story! However the link doesn't work for me.

Something like 3 months ago, my mother-in-law was home and I showed her I was wearing my brown boots. At this time, she first said something regarding my sexuality. However, less than 5 minutes later, she came by and apologized. She had never seen a man in heels before. Since then, however, she has seen me several times in heels or boots (always at home), and complimented me.

Yesterday, my mother-in-law came by, after doing some shopping with my gf. Like very often, i'm in heels, this time my newest steve madden booties (which I love : I plan to go out while wearing them, in the coming months), with my jeans.

Before having dinner, I notice a box on the fridge. She says "i wanted to give you a gift. you are dear to me". So she says : go on, open it!

So i open the box and see these beautiful knee high faux-leather boots. Wow!

It's the first time ever i've been given heels. And they fit perfectly, as they were made for me. It shook me and I feel really good since then.

I mean, for the little story, we are to move in a house, my gf, me and her mom, so my love can take good care of her mother (instead of sending her in a '"old' folks' home)... I sometimes wondered how it would go about my heeling around, with my mother-in-law living with us. No longer!

Sorry the pics aren't good quality, my gf and I are to take new pics soon.

I'm an avid collectionneur :

books - mainly history, political and philosophical topics -

discs - mainly heavy metal music -

movies,

magic the gathering cards

and of course, heels.

I don't heel at all so it would be a big step for me.

Really! Were you going there alone? How much is heeling a secret, do any of your friends or family members know about it?

That would be daring. And very appropriate, in fact. Takes confidence, are you heeling out frequently?

...

Years ago I did not wear heels while doing so. Afraid of stranger's eyes.

Nowadays, I think I'd push myself out of my comfort zone and would probably wear some little wedge-type booties. These boots are quite subtle since they don't make the typical heel noise.

I'm sure that your experience will be great. True pros won't matter which color on which feet and will treat each customer with due respect.

Are you going to that store wearing heels?

I had, one time, a few years ago.

I don't think they were professionnal. They were courteous but the woman who took care of my feet hurt me (by cutting too deep one of my toe nail). She asked me like 3 times if I was sure about the color (i choose a deep blue). She did a poor job, in fact, and I never went to a pro pedicure since then.

I did feel judged by the ladies, but none said a thing. There was a man waiting for his girl who was having a manucure, he looked at me several times with a strange look, if I reckon well, but overall it was because of the poor service and job that I never went for a pedicure again. Now my significant other and I take care of each other's feet.

Newest pair!

I find it very beautiful and eye catching. And nice choice of heels btw.

Yup. Wearing my favorite knee-high Aldo leather boots.

a couple of my latest heels,the block heels  are 4 1/2 inch,the 2nd pair are 4 inch and my plat sandals are 10 inch

Wow! Love these heels! Especially the second pair. Very beautiful and elegant. And these 10 inches platform : wow! Sky-high.

That night must have given you a great boost in confidence! Great boots by the way, you wore jeans that night?

Hi folks,

I received today my new pair of shoes, from Aldo.

They feel quite good, and without a platform, i'm still not used to a heel that height.

Very nice boots! Are they hard to walk with?

Following on the same "stream" of confidence, I just went for a walk to the store. There was no customer, the employee was in the backstore when I entered, so with the sound of the stiletto boots, she expected a woman at the counter. The cashier was a beautiful young girl, maybe 19 years old. I went to the register and asked her to verify if my loto tickets were winning. She soon after asked if I was wearing high heels and if I could show her. I immediately did so. She smiled and asked if I was new to this. She said that as last us men will know how can heel hurt. She somewhat did make fun of me but that was good spirited, and I joined on so I did not got "owned". When she saw my fingers (black nail polished) she said "oh the nails too? Do you get your legs waxed?" I said no, not for the moment but I consider it. I forgot to ask if I was the first man she ever saw in heels : a question I won't forgot to ask her next time I go there... in heels! I'm very proud of myself for taking these steps to just enjoy and wear heels. I did today what I would have been unable to do just a few weeks ago. My first outing went well and my first "confrontation" wasn't quite one. I'll continue to work on my "shield", because frankly, if 4-5 young teenagers had been there, I would surely have been laughed at.

Hi fellow heel lovers,

I feel like sharing a little of my life to you.

For years I denied my attraction to high heels. Oh sure, girlfriends knew I loved women's feet and shoes : however I kept to myself the pleasure I also had wearing them.

With ebay and secure internet shopping, I bought my first pair of heels several years ago : cheap plastic white stripper shoes. I really loved these, but eventually I just scrapped them. Two times in my life I denied my love for high heeled shoes and got rid of all pairs I had (4-5 in total maybe?).

That was before. Recently I had a pretty rough time. Having sought professional help, I met a social worker who helps and listen to me. She is the first person I ever tell about my love for heels and my wearing them (but always just in my house or car). Today I had a meeting with Rita and had my ankle faux-leather boots. It was the second time in heels outside but I consider it my real first experience, as I got out of the car and was inside for more than an hour with my boots. I tried to choose clothes that were, let's say, a little more "androgynous" than just jeans, and had also my nails polished.

I was feeling quite insecure, even though Rita knew. It felt really great : i'm relieved, as I was quite stressed! I'm in the process of telling my closed ones : sisters and brother, mom and eventually dad. Good friends will come to know as well.

I guess I love pretty much all kind of heels, but the stilletto heeled boots I had on felt a little too feminine for now. I love too much heels to deny and hide this part of me anymore. I want to live and enjoy it! I keep on working.

Thanks for reading me!

I love this place, I'm so glad I found it.

I would definitively work in a high heel store.

you are lucky my friend. my girlfriend doesnt wear high heels because she doesnt like to be too tall:cry1: but i would love for her to buy more heels and make me wear them.

How tall is she?

Yeah shoegirl I would gladly trade my 5'7 for your 6'3!

Personally, I would get jealous seen guy in cute shoes size 9:))))

Lol I do wear size 9 or 10.

Hi Evan! Nice to hear from you, fellow Canadian.

Hi Cathy & David, best wishes and have a good day!

Why? That is a way to get dirt in your bed.

Indeed it would if the shoes i sleep with were used outside.

Hi all heelers, How many of you like to sleep with your shoes? For my part, I sleep most of the nights with my leather boots or pumps.

I did not even think about asking the manager to try shoes in the backstore. Not a bad idea. I was thinking about all the businesses around the Jean-Talon subway station. There are a lot of businesses there.
