  1. The shop has changed a lot over the years. It had a huge shoe section in the late 1990s, and sold a large range of clothing too. It was certainly catering to the TV/CD crowd. I'm not sure who the range of shoes was made by, but I'd guess LSB or Leatherworks. Several ladies ran the shop, and the window display always featured some of the highest heels imaginable. The shop changed hands several times, first some Scandinavian staff, then other people, then the downstairs part closed. In more recent times it was bought out by a chain of "adult" shops, and the product range changed somewhat. Haven't been there for several years now. I have only ever known it at 123 Hammersmith Road. Is 111 Brompton Road their old address, a different shop, or poor memory? :silly: Recently, the name has changed to Simply Pleasure, reflecting the change of product line. There was one other shop in London selling LSB ballet boots in the late 1990s. Can't remember the name (it had ".com" in it, on the sign over the door). It was in or just off Peter Street in Soho, with the shop on 2 levels, one downstairs. From memory, there was a Spar or similar on the other corner.

  2. Not sure, but some of those "visitors" might be Google, Bing, et al, indexing the pages of the site. On some forums, each "page" they visit is counted as a new visitor because the forum cannot track their accesses from page to page in the same way it can track a normal web-browser. It is also influenced by how long people are here for, and the total is all people seen over a short period of time not all in one instant. -- jmc types more quickly.

  3. They don't answer e-mails once they have your money. I am very upset.

    That seems all too common these days. It's an accusation pointed at several different companies many times over the years, including several in the last few weeks.

    Harder to understand is that when such comments are being made in public, the company doesn't have some representative online and smoothing things over - they just let the negative comments build up unchallenged and uncorrected. It would only take a few minutes to explain things.

    I have them in white and now black, somehow the blacks are bit tighter around the toe area, sky high but easy to walk in.

    Amazing heels, head-turner every time!

    Sound like they are his. Maybe it's someone from here?

    Luckily I am a size 8 and these fit me like a glove, never thought I would be able to acquire such shoes on the high street, heel is perfect, style perfect. Look perfect, thankyou Schuh, have also the red, you must bring a white out in this style.

    Love these shoes. Relatively easy to walk in and look fab and very sexy. Reading the previous comments about how narrow they are at the front I decided to order a size larger than normal and they fit absolutely perfectly. Fab shoes at a Fab price.

    Are they for him, or for someone else? Doesn't say.

    Absolutely wicked - v high! But stunning with glossy sheer tights and pencil skirt or dress!

    Bought these as a present for my sister so haven't worn them (plus I'm a bloke, so I wouldn't anyway) but Schuh were great getting them to me very efficiently.

    Top notch service.

    He should give it a go.

    As I said for the black ones of these that I purchased, sky high killer heels is not a wrong description. Loved the style of this classic court and had to have another pair. The heel is really thin, and unfortunately I scuffed a heel on the 2nd time of wearing so watch the pavement cracks. At size 8 the heels measure 13cms. Can't wait until pay day to get another pair of these in light grey and would love a plain black pair as well, not patent, so please please make these soon. My boy friend cant get enough of me in these and even tried them himself, but couldn't walk in them they are so high. A must for any high heel lover.

    Excellent. Get him a slightly lower pair and he's off.

    Is indeed a killer heel,but also very comfortable and surprisingly easy to walk in love the pencil thin heel, would recommend this shoe to any one.
