Asos.com very good too

Result !!

Glad to hear that you only got nice comments - had a similar experience at our Halloween /birthday bash. People were very surprised that a man could handle heels for so long .. I claimed one back for equality sake. Anything girls can do, boys can do too !! 

Job done!

Thanks Dr Shoe,

In the end I was away on business and ended up walking through a mall to get to my meeting. Saw the perfect shoes in  shop window as I passed - went in on my way back and though they didn't have my size, they did have them one smaller. Colour wasn't great but a bit of shoe stretcher and some glue and glitter - I think they turned out well.

Thanks for advice everyone

Thanks for the suggestions at9, I will go and look there. Point taken about the heading - unfortunately I don't seem to be able to change it now!? Perhaps a Mod can help ?? .. I like your suggestion of "shoes for rocky horror"

My wifes best friend turns 40 this Halloween and there is the obligatory fancy dress party! Amazingly, my wife has suggested that I go as Frankenfurter (RHPS) and even arranged the costume for me. The only thing she (we) are struggling to find is the shoes. You will recall Tim curry wore ankle strap sandals with block heel in the original

Main problem is I am size 10UK or 12US

Does anyone have any ideas as to where I may find these. I came very close to an identical pair on ebay (made by saint of fashion) but lost out due to flat battery on mifi device :-(  Have not seen another pair that comes close since then, they all tend to be stiletto heel. Have tried ebya, and just about every other shop I can think of but to no avail.

Any help greatly appreciated. Would hate to waste a good opportunity to heel with my wife .. they don't come along often

in a heartbeat!

WOW! Lots of us dream of having an open minded wife like yours. Glad that you are finding wearing heels such a pleasurable experience. Welcome to the forum,

Hi, welcome from me too. You will find that there are quite a few folks on the boards from round your parts. Hope that you and your SO are able to resolve things - it takes time and a lot of talking. Think that you can be sure there are a lot of questions running in her head scaring the heck out of her. Whilst tryng to avoid sounding like an agony aunt, you need to take the time to listen to those and answer as much and as honestly as you can. She will be looking for reassurance that she is still very much part of your life and you remain you, nothing changes cos of the shoes Otherwise, good luck, look forward to hearing more from you

HHMania - welcome from me too .. always nice to have another Saffer join the board. As Addicted said, join the group. Youre a lucky man to have such an understanding wife - look after her. Look forward to hearing more from you

Welcome back - good to hear from you and glad that you have kept heeling thing going. What, if may ask, was the reaction you received in the lounge?

Nice shoes but more importantly where can I find a cousin like yours?

Having originally professed to loathe them with a vengence I have since decided that the genuine ones aren't too bad, although I still think they look like you've gone out in your slippers. However I see a lot of girls wearing the cheap knock-offs where they're walking off the side of the heel and they look awful!

At the risk of incurring the wrath of Dr Shoe - I agree with Chris. Genuine UGGS tend to get a bad name from the cheap knock offs where the soles collapse and the girls end up dragging their feet around - makes me want to tell them to pick their feet and walk properly!! They also seem to fall apart and look scruffy in no time. Doubt it happens with the real ones as they are properly built.

With the right jeans and good legs, you can get away with UGGS in a social environment

Just because you or another guy wears boots with with heels or just heels doesn't make

them gay. For some reason my wife feels the same way. Somehow we need to correct this.

As for Halloween, not doing anything here either.

Hear hear, there is no correlation between men who heels and men who are gay!! She may have a lot of gay friends but that doesnt mean she'll automatically warm to her husband in heels .. and if she draws the gay comparison that will complicate things for you

Too funny .. loved the older lady but the gent with the silly hat on cracked me up. Especially when asked his opinion .. he was about to offer one and then seemed to withdrawat the last moment. A great summation of how people react (inadvertantly) when they see something that does not fall within their definition of normal. Thanks for sharing

Lovely heels!! Thanks for posting the photos of the different pairs but I have to say that my favorite are the nude courts from Barratts. Cut exactly to my liking and actually a bit similar to a pair that I just purchased from DSW today. These were in the clearance section plus received additional savings with a birthday coupon. Nude/powder pumps by Jessica Simpson, style: Oscar in a size US 9.5. Very comfortable featuring a soft rounded toe and moderately high heel. Comments are always appreciated and welcome!

I like them - thanks for sharing

Dont think the last shot of the nude ones was that good so I have taken more - the last one shows me wearing them today with a pair of combats and fleece - Not the most stylish but I reckon it works around the house

Well, its been a while since I posted about new shoes but I have recently seen a lot of nice shoes in 5' and wanted to try them - 4' has been where I've been for a while but everything new seems to higher. Never really been keen plats before but though they'd be a good place to start. Hunted around before finding the tan ones (first 2 pics) in New Look - theyre a 9W so a little snug but they soon stretched. They're actually only 4 3/4' high but found them comfotable and easy to walk in. A bargin at £10 Next came the wedges, also a 9W from New Look - a full 5' but soooo comfortable! Got the next pair on a sale at Payless. Quality is not great but they are comfortable too, actually quite like them. Then I saw these Nude Courts from Barratts!! Just had to have them - love the round toe. They are a smidgen under 5' but no platform and man did I struggle to walk in those to begin with. Took me a while to sort myself out, shorten my steps etc but eventually got it and love em. Still training at this point - who knew a 1' difference in height would be so hard. Anyone else had this experience?

Great heels Christine. Classic shape and love the colour! You rock em with jeans too and am pretty sure they'll go well with a skirt too.

Yeah, there was a similar thread a while back, several of us were wondering where he'd got too. Hope he is ok! On a similar note, Bubba has gone very quiet too ... Anybody know why? If you're reading this Bubba - speak up! We miss your straight talking ways man.

Look forward to the pics - what size does this shop go up to? Any hope for us with size 10's? would love a few pairs in the style of CL

Hi Violet Hello and welcome from me too. Look forward to seeing you about here more and hearing what you have to say

Hello and wlecome from me too Sounds like you have a wonderful relationship there and we would love to hear more from you on how you blend heels to accent your style.

Congratulations from me too. Looked good and am glad to hear that youve not had any unjust attention. Now if only I can get the courage up

Yeah, watched most of it - coverage wasnt great here, they kept breaking away!

Good evening to all. Here we have a stunning pair that just arrived after a long wait! These are by far the most classic cut pumps in my collection featuring a perfect toe box, low cut vamp, high 4.5" stiletto and extremely feminine decorative bow! Maker and style: KG by Kurt Geiger, Dancer in satin champagne. Please comment and thank you for allowing me to share!

Lovely shoes - I'm just jealous that you can fit into KG's.
