Hello All, Watching a news network the other night. They had a fashion show of Tommy Hilfiger. All the Female models came down the runway doing the Model stomp, one foot crossing over in front of the other. It actually looks painful especially in really high heels. But the men came down the runway as if they where just walking along as usual. Ok the question. Why the Model walk ? it doesn't seem to make the clothes look better or do the models job just have to be more difficult because of how much they get paid? Really why the cross over walk Any idea who started it? Thanks

Thanks for all of your words of wisdom and encourgement, It was a rush trying on Womans jeans for the first time. They certainly do feel and fit soo much nicer than Mens jeans. I will have crank up my attitude and try going into a womans store to buy jeans and maybe try them on there. I did have a experience in a Lingerie/Shoe store where I had bought a pair of knee high platform boots. Once home found they where marked wrong on the box, I returned them and the woman sales clerk handed me the new pair and unlocked the dressing room and said Here try them on this time to make sure they fit. That was a first for me in a womans Lingerie shop But the clerk seemed like it was just business as usual.

Well, I have bought many pairs of womens shoes in several stores through the years, That's now no big deal. Last friday I stopped at Wal-Mart for some things and saw Womens low rise Wrangler Boot cut Jeans for under $15.00 US. Nice Price, I was a little nevous looking for the mens fitting room, Which is in a island next to the womens. Argg! a attendaent has to unlock the door and count how many items you have. On my way to the dressing rooms I refolded the 3 pairs of jeans so the large brightly colored tag that says WOMANS was hidden on the inside. Whew counted and in the dressing room. Now to try them on. Wow started with a 16 , it fit but was too tight ended up with a 20. Slightly loose. Went home cut off the size tags and washed them with the rest of my jeans. I wore them all day Saturday out shopping with my wife, Her only comment was Are those bell bottoms. I said yes they are boot cut and found them for only fourteen dollars. Once washed and dryed they fit really nicely. I might try the 18 size next pair. The low rise waist is actually comfotable and I noticed the front pockets when you put your keys into them lay towards the front unlike most mens jeans where you get a bulge from whats in the pockets towards the sides of the hip. So If your ready to buy Womens Jeans Go FOR IT They are a lighter material with some lycra and are really comfortable, The slightly wider boot cut leg does well to hide most of my 4 inch heel boots.

I agree, Last year in the fall I happened to go to Wal-Mart and find, that the size 12 womens shoes had just been stocked with a new shipment. The selection was wonderful several styles and colors and they all fit my feet. There was a crowd of several women as well as a couple of men picking through them. I bought only a couple of pairs, then went back the following week. The size 12 section was cleaned out. Only a few pairs of ugly loafers were left. I asked the clerk if more were coming in. See said that she had placed a order for more size 12 shoes and was surprised at how fast the shipment sold out. I checked back several times over the next month or so and unfortunately the new shipment never arrived.

Hope this works EMS

On there web page is a spot called new arrivals pick on this and then the Lot number 034294 BROWN Tether Roller Bottom Oxford as it is called. I called a local store where I usually by shoes from and was informed that this pair is a web only shoe. I had to order it hope it is as nice as the picture.

Just a note to let you know of a new style Oxford style sneaker with a 3 inch heel at Payless.com Lot number 034294. They are brown in color and really don't look like they have that high of a heel. At $16.00 with free instore shipping They are worth a look. EMS

Thanks for the advise of posting a image correctly.

Also in reply as to the type of toe on these shoes, They are more pointed than appear in the picture not a sharp small point but a point about 1/2 diameter. Even still given the pointed toe the size 12 still fits comfortalbly.

Hello all,

Just got these shoes Yesterday,even though the toes are more pointed than I usually wear they fit great.

They are made by Ellie and the size 12 fits very nicely.

I can even walk around on the 5 inch heels but still need a little more practice time.

A very nice store to deal with, they where very helpful and the best part was the fact that the shoes where on sale.

Best regards EMS

This issue just out is filled with many ad's with pictures of new style heels for spring. Including a nice article about the types of heels designers are working on, most all with 4 and 5 inch heels as well as wedges. The article says that designers are looking for footwear to be bigger with larger heels for spring. A lot of great pictures and hopes for new style shoes coming this spring. I can hardly wait for spring. Enjoy ems8

Nice looking shoe Scotty.

I just ordered a couple pair of new boots from Payless.com

and had the instore delivery. Just walked in picked up the order and away I went. Very easy way to shop there and you don't need to worry if the particular shoe is in stock

Great picture of your boots. I feel a little envious especially of the ballet boots. How about a picture of you wearing them out and about. I have a few thigh high boots and have to get the camera out and take some pictures. Thanks for the post of those really nice boots Ed

I usually wear a size 12 and often check whats new at Payless. The other day I was disappointed because nothing really looked good. In desperation I walked over to the size 11 rack, which had many more shoes. I picked up a pair of ankle zip boots with a 2 inch heel in extra wide. To my amazement they fit perfectly felt comfortable and the ends of my toes don't even touch the inside of the shoe. I guess it all depends on the style and make of the shoe. I wore them most all weekend while shopping with my wife. She never even noticed or at least is use to my shoes with heels higher than hers. It is nice to be a bit taller than her when I hold her close. So don't be afraid to try on some other sizes close to yours. You might be surprised. I sure was. ed

I almost bought those at Wal-Mart. I tried them on and they are really comfy. Wal-Mart now carries the No Boundries brand in size 12's Yeah! And at those prices who could pass them up. EMS8
