I know what you mean. While I like the shoes they have at places like Payless (and the price !) in the end I always go with leather shoes. It just makes for a much more pleasant wearing experience.

I remember sneaking into my nieces shoes when I was 6 or 7 or so.

Great animated story. Like Jeffb my favorites are the baby doll pumps. I have never ventured out in anything but block heels, but if I ever trade up to pumps, those will be the ones. Thanks.

I think I'll try stilleto boots this Fall. It is just a little too warm this summer to wear boots. Anyway, I don't have stilleto boots yet, so this is another great excuse to go shopping for shoes.

was in Vegas yesterday. Lots of heels. Mainly 4 inch sandals and mules. It was 105 F (that is 40 C for you Euro people)
-
Great boots. The sool looks very thin. Do they not bend when you walk in them ?
-
Straooy sandals with thin heels are some of the sexiest things ever made. I dislike those very point shoes. For people with larger sizes they look endless.

My favorite is Aldo shoes (Canada and US). I also like Nordstrom

tick tick tick ticke di tick Just nothing like a stilleto heel ticking away on concrete
-
great shoes for replacing light bulbs on the ceiling.

Women's size 11 or 10W (US). EUro 42. Just on the edge of finding shoes in regular stores.

I am 5 10. Heels make me perfect ! Yeah.

I agree with the Doc. I am "average" male weigth and with cheap shoes with thin soles, the shoe bends, making walking very uncomfortable. One advantage of platforms is that they thend to be stiffer (sorry for those of you that dislike platforms). When I go shopping for shoes the first thing I check is the bending of the shoe. If it is too flexible I just don't buy it as it will be uncomfortable for walking some distance.

Can't believe how many techies on here !

Really interesting question. While I have always been interests in heels, my heel wearing got bolstered when I didn't mind being different anymore. I am one of these people that did everything in life that was expected from me, and now it just got a little boring. I wear heels regularly but not at work. I am still quite woried about the negative consequences it can bring with it in a work environment. This may depend very much on the type of work

I thought of having my ears pierced. But after reading Laurie's description it seems like a complicated thing. I can't really afford to show up at my job with two ear rings. SO it would only be for occasional use. Keeping them in for six months ... ?
-
He was going through trash barrels ? Sounds like a homeless guy that picked up the shoes for lack of any other footwear. Maybe not the way we want to see the trend go.
-
Really like the heel on the sandal with the thickness in between a blade and a block heel. Nice
-
Guess I got a little carried away. It was late.

Everyone here seems so excited talking about their school system ...

Those are some nice shoes you were wearing on your last school day. Congratulations on having the courage, and good luck with mom and dad. Sounds like you have quite understanding parents.

There may be be many issues that determine a women' reaction to a man wearing heels. People are complicated. But shoes are shoes, and when you have a passion for high heeled shoes I think it matters very little whether you deal with a man or women. I have seen this behavior in sales people. Once in a while I get served in a shoe store by a person who loves the shoe thing even more than I do, and you really get the feeling from them that the fact that I am a male trying on HH womens shoes is a non-issue. Some of the pictures on this web site prove that guys can look pretty sharp in HH shoes, given the right combination of outfit and shoes (just like is the case for women). I know plenty of woemn that have no clue how to coordinate their outfit. What colors our feelings is the other stuff. The association of HH shoes with lack of masculinity. Once we get past this, there is very little resistance that remains (except for the little envy of not being the only one to grab people's attention. Larieheels, thanks for the very honest post on this. You have my greatest respects). This is why in the end there are many spouses that seem to have no problem with their husband wearing HH shoes. They know him to still be the same person, whether in flats or on heels. It is only the shallownes of random interactions that allows the association of men in heels with lack of masculinity to live on.

Waw, what a great group of people. As Laurieheels mentioned, haven't seen one weirdo yet.

I find stilletos no harder to wear than block heels, but there definitely is a difference in appearance. Stilletos are clearly womens shoes. With block heels, even the 4 inch high ones, people just seem to be "confused" as to whether the shoes are womens or mens. Not that it matters to me. Just saying there is a different reaction.
embarassing moment

I went shopping for leather pants today. So of course I was wearing some serious heels as the whole purpose of the leather pants was to go with my boots with 4 inch blade heels. These boots have plastic tips on the heels which can make them a little slippery on a tiled floor. So as I walk through on of these large clothing stores (Target) I slip and fall with my feet in the air. Obviously this attracts some attention from the people around you, in particular when high heels stick out in the air. I didn't hurt myself and continued shopping but it was rather embarassing. I pride myself on being able to walk quite well in heels, but I guess these things happen. I'll try to show a picture of the boots with the pants I got. It looks great. I wonder if other people have had similar incidents.
