Yup! Joak wins the under 60s and Himark wins the over 60s. Well done both! Heelsfan

Hello High Surprise! That sounds like a FANTASTIC sighting that most of us only dream about seeing. I suppose it's too much to hope for that you (or one of the other contributors) will ever see her again, and photograph her! Cheers, Heelfan

Hiya Dheel! I can only agree with all the others and say GO FOR IT! You've got everything going for you - a fairly 'unisex' pair of starter shoes and most importantly, a supportive girl! And first time out you can add fairly long trousers/pants for extra discretion. We can all assure you that EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE, and you'll get back home with a helluva satisfying buzz that you've actually done it! From then on, it'll get easier and easier, and more and more fun. We will all look forward to your postings in future months that, like the rest of us, you're boldly wearing slightly higher and slimmer heels, and showing a bit more under the bottoms of your pants. I can assure you, it's a great feeling of unleashment if you really get into it, and I really hope things develop well with the girl next door. A very, very exciting time for you! Good luck and keep us posted! Cheers, Heelfan.

Excellent news YamYam! - Well organised! And Jim, happy sailing, and don't forget to take some closed-toe pumps (or OXFORDS) for bailing-out (peep-toes might give you that horrible sinking feeling)!. ISLEBEESEEINGYUH! Cheers, Heelsfan

Must report a wonderful sighting in Bristol City Centre last Friday night at abut the time people begin criss-crossing from one nightclub to the other. A couple came striding throughout the length of the long central precinct. The young man was manfully striding away with very attractive slim girlfriend justabout keeping-up in some great high heels. Her top was a short-sleeved white singlet and below that was a cute denim mini-skirt that only just covered her lovely apple-shaped bottom. Her high heels were a great pair of 5" white stiletto plain courts (to match the singlet). She clicked along with a tantalising little inward heel-wobble on each step and the overall effect was awesome! There were a few other good pairs of stiletto courts being worn but without the exciting wobble, and two great pairs of boots with the bottom half of the black 5" heels in gleaming gold metal, both worn with very short denim shorts! Look forward to reading a few more of other people's latest sightings! Cheers, Heelfan.

Just a reminder guys and gals, that there are still three weeks to go if any more of you decide you'd like to join us for our fun day in Oxford. There's five or six of us expected so far, so why not join us to make some new like-minded friends and enjoy some shopping, chatting, swapping info and anecdotes, eating and even venturing into the odd hostely! Cheerfully yours, Heelsfan

I'm UK Men's 9.5 (ish) = UK Women's 10.5 = European 44 = US 11/12 (?) and I'm very, very, very, very, very envious of guys with smaller feet who can swan into any ladies shoe shop and have the pick of the entire store. Occasionally I can find a sexy style in the 'large ladies sizes' from Barratts, Brantano, Evans, Tallgirls etc., but the vast majority of these large sizes are frumpy, and it's SO frustrating that whenever I get momentarily excited in some of the shops upon seeing a FANTASTIC style, it always seem to be made in sizes only up to about a 7 or 8. I often end up spending a fortune getting shoes or boots made to my own design by custom-makers such as The Little Shoe Box, London. Cheers, Heesfan

Hi! I haven't ordered anything from either firm yet, so I can't comment on quailty/service, but I admire your taste which co-incides with mine! Classic Pumps have those superb low-cut pumps showing toe-cleavage (I HATE pumps with high, ugly uppers), and Brazilian orchid excell with their lovely low-cut mules (again the toe-straps of most other mules seem unnecessarily high-cut a stodgy). I really just posted to say why not include Lovely Pumps as well as Classic Pumps? To me, their range looks even more exciting, although it's more expensive that Classic Pumps. Hope you manage to get something and that it satisfies you! Cheers, Heelsfan.

Yes, it was actually me who found out that 'Sadie' was sold-out. When Firefox posted the picture on the 'Heels for Guys' board, It took me ages to deliberate whether I should order a pair for myself - the whole of one second in fact! Like a flash,I reached for my phone, only to be told that 'Sadie' was no longer available. I imagine it was probably the tail-end of last winter's range of boots. Such a shame, because mentally I was already planning to wear My new 'Sadies' to the forthcoming Heel-Meet in Oxford to show them to Firefox and the rest of the bunch. Incidentally, for those of you from the States that have just been talking about the logistics of coming across the pond to the UK to buy stuff like that, you don't have to because Barratt's (and various retailers who include large sizes) offer an on-line mail order service. However, if any of you do fancy the trip for the helluvit, try to coincide with one of our Heel-Meets, because we'd love to see more heel enthusiasts from Stateside! Cheerfully yours, Heelsfan

I agree with those of you that think this story does not ring true. The only conceivable reason for hospitalisation would seem to be to try to cure Casmo of his crossdressing. However, if that were really the case, then the LAST thing that they would do would be to instal Camo in there with all of his female clothes and shoes. Sorry Camo, it just doesn't add up!

If you are already wearing heels around your peers and friends, sometimes accompanied by a friend doing likewise, it sounds as if you're already 90% of the way there! Why not simply extend these wearings into the other areas in which you move, and let the heels tell the story for you? Cheers, Heelsfan

Here are my answers: I enjoy the feel of height and walk. 10 Fashion, an indespensible accessory 1 For the extra height & confidence 7 A way to emphasize my feminine side 1 I am sexually stimulated by wearing them 10 To be more attractive 1 Cheers, Heeslfan

For me it's always a huge turn-on, but it stems from my excitement at seeing georgeous women in super high-heels. I always wondered how they managed to balance on wobbly stilettos, and how they felt perched up on their toes for long periods, etc. It was wanting to know and share the experience that THEY were having that attracted me into wearing high heels. When I put them on and wear them in public, the big turn-on for me is knowing that all high-heeled women must be regularly experiencing the same sensations of empowerment through being raised taller, but combined with the various restrictions and subservience imposed by high heels, becoming outright bondage when heels get extremely high. It's all great and fascinating stuff! Cheers, Heelsfan

Well, unlike the rest of you, I prefer to have a VARIABLE rather than a set leg-length. If I am having a bold/extrovert day, I will hitch my trousers further up my waist to reveal my entire heel-height (highest are 5.5") to the big wide world. However, if I'm in a more meek/private mood, I'll ease my trousers further down on my waist to cover all but a inch or so of my heels. Even if I'm in the former mood, the latter technique has often stood me in good stead if I'm walking towards Trouble (groups of thugs or small children, bless them! or giggling schoolgirls). Another method of excercising this VARIABLE technique can only be applied when wearing jeans. Unlike trousers, it seems fashionably acceptable to turn-up the bottoms to any great or lesser extent. Therefore, instead of having to alter the belt-height at my waist (as above), with jeans I simply adjust the amount of turn-up to suit the heels and the occasion! Simple! Huh? Cheers, Heelsfan

UPDATE, 12th JUNE 2003: Jenny's Forum has been very busy lately, so the piece about the 'Catwalk Flip' has now unfortunately been nudged off the bottom (and lost for all time). Anyway, as stated above, it is utilised to great effect by Dolly Parton in her 5" stilettos all the way through her film "Straight Talk" (hireable on video) and is also mentioned in 'Lucy's Story' which at present, is still on Jenny's Forum Message-board. Cheers, Heelsfan

Well. maybe the rough surfaces will add to the fun! With a month to go before the Oxford Meet, we're doing quite well. So far, we're expecting Firefox, Xaphod, YamYam, Daz and Me (that's already 5). Further guys and gals are most welcome to come on board for our fun/shopping/eating/chatting/pubbing day out, whether or not in heels: OXFORD MEET, 12th JULY 2003, 10am START OUTSIDE OXFORD UNIVERSITY BOOKSHOP, 106 HIGH STREET, OXFORD (IF DELAYED RING FIREFOX ON 07941 172043) TILL EVENING. Let's have a great time folks! Cheers, Heelsfan

As a newboy of only a few weeks to this site, I am surprised and a little saddened at just how many ideas (like this Paris one) seem to start getting talked about and then just fizzle out! Nothing AT ALL has been said on this page for WELL OVER A YEAR! That's sad.....what is it?........it's VERY SAD. Well, here we are in June 2003 with the Oxford Meet to look forward to on 12th July 2003. Once that's been and gone, and we start looking ahead to further meets, how about resurrecting Paris, Huh? ................ Huh? ................. Howsaboutit? ...............Huh? ........ Waddayareckon? ............... HUH? Cheers for now! Heelfan

Xaphod, I haven't thanked you for greeting me on to the site (posted with your Heelmeet photo at Camden Lock stables). Your were the first to do so. A very friendly site, and look forward to seeing you all at Oxford on 12th July. Cheers, Heelfan.

Just in the process of shaking-off that dreadful comfy loafer! Cheers, Heelsfan

That was a year ago! let us know in advance if you're ever planning another UK visit. We'll be talking about a few meets during the rest of 2003 and 2004. Cheers, Heelsfan.

This 'London Meet' page has gone dead since May 2002, but perhaps once we've got the imminent Oxford Meet (12th July 2003) behind us, we can talk about a few meet possibilities for the second half of 2003, including London. Huh? Wadd'yasay folks, Huh? ...........Huh? ISLEBEESEEINGYUH! Cheers, Heelsfan.

Several of us have arranged to attend the Oxford Meet on 12th July 2003 (see under its own heading). Once we've got that behind us, it will be nice if we can discuss plans for other meets, including one to the Kinky Boot Factory (divine Shoes) near Northampton. ISLEBEESEEINGYUH! Cheers, Heelfan.

Ah Firefox, me doth thinkest you sell yourself short! You're obviously a scholar and a gentlemen, hence the hallowed portals of learning and those ancient towers and spires of Oxford will be a goodly and fitting place for you to convene the meeting with us on 12th July. My felicitations, Heelsfan.

As usual folks, we're getting off the point of this page's title. Let's all hope Stephen finds his girl in the Bristol area (whether or not he joins us on the Oxford Meet on 12/07/03). Best wishes, Heelsfan

Irrespective of WHAT your neck colour is (can't believe we've ended up focussing on necks on this heel forum!), why not think positive and join us for our fun shopping/eating/pubbing day: OXFORD MEET, SAT 12th JULY 2003, 10am 'til EVENING, STARTING OUTSIDE OXFORD UNIVERSITY BOOKSHOP, 106 HIGH STREET (ANYONE DELAYED RING FIREFOX ON 07941 172043).
