Nice choices, Heel-D.

Excuse me, women do not have to wear heels. No one is putting a gun to their head. You can look even on the Hollywood red carpet and see several elegant ladies wearing flats or kitten heels.

Actually, I forgot about my new flats!

I got these on clearence for $8.00 at Zellers. I have them in black. The buckle on the pair I have is a little more subtle (no rhinestones/glitter), plus my footbed doesn't have hearts on them.

I've wore them once so far because the weather in Windsor changes every 5 minutes (yaaa Great Lakes! lol). My gf has similar pairs so it's kinda cool when we match. They are super comfortable to wear. Can't wait to wear them at school.

Do you wear those out????

Ya, Heel-D, you're right about that! You sure pull off the look good, Zero. Do you wear any other styles than those boots?

Nice gallery, kinheels....it has a really nice mixture of shoes you can wear on all occasions...keep it up.

Both guys - great boots and loafers. They look good! I hope your partners support you both. I think after you wear them out once with them and they realize its ok, they will be more open.

There's 2 reasons for this: 1) It's classic supply and demand economics. Those large sizes for trendy shoes are hard to find. Therefore, people will spend a large sum to get them. I've noticed this with a lot of payless shoes on ebay. 2) People don't bother looking at either the store which sells the shoe or even the ebay store of the seller. Many of times I've found stuff on the general auctions, then looked at the store to see that it is cheap due to the fact people keep bidding and bidding on the auction. Just some food for thought.

I recommend a pair of jeans with a superflare. They will sit nice over that type of sandal and look trendy.

I looked at the message boards on the American Idol website. There were several ones about Zach. These two were the best. They also have some support for us.

I couldn't see the pics!

You should of offered him to try them on!

Ya I've seen those before. It is also a bold step for Dior to market them as heels, and not as "shoes". Definately a thumbs up for our team.

On a side note, www.internationalmale.com has some heel styles for men also.

heelsrus... Who do you root for? My gf cringed when she bought the tickets since she is a Detroit fan. The Leafs were playing the Penguins - first visit of Sidney Crosby to the ACC. It was a good time. The floors in the ACC were very slippery for the both of us, but we managed!

That's awesome. Encouragement always helps with it comes from your gf.

*bites bottom lip* I'm gonna start doing some grocery shopping..lol

I just checked out Victoria's Secret. They got some nice strappy heels on sale that caught my eye. Many nice styles up to size 11 US. Frederick's of Hollywood (I think they are the same company) has lot of stuff on clearence and sale. There shipping is pretty cheap also.

Thanks for the kind words, Anton. You're right. It's still kind of odd to get up the courage to purchase shoes in the store. Being a size 11-12 US woman's, they are hard to find in some stores. It's still funny to see their looks on their face. I haven't had one bad response at a store. Just one time a guy was like "whoa, look - he's trying them on!". It wasn't a shock or bad thing, it was more like "ooo look at that plane". haha keep it up!

Great article, bluetango. You should be recruited by CNN...lol I like your mental preparation. I get worked up too sometimes before I go into public. When you don't think of it, it's no big deal any more. Keep it up! What does your partner think of your boots?

Those boots are an awesome look on anyone. I saw a girl in my store the other day and she had on leopard print pumps. They looked tastefully done with her outfit. Now if only I have better luck shoe shopping...hehe.

Great job, kneehigh. Foxxy is a babe - do it up! lol

Great styles. The pumps look great on you. I'm just confused on your name - guy / girl / cd? Sorry if I offended you in - just curious!

Thanks for the responses all. Ya, I gotta take some pictures - I just always forget...lol Terayon - Ya I thought of Square One after the fact when I was driving down Hurontario to find somewhere to eat. Yorkdale I thought would be ok since I always stop there to get on the subway to get downtown. Oh well - there is always next time...

All the boots are not feminine, except the constrating color ones, because the wedge stands out. Better?

Burlington Coat Factory has some good deals, it's just always a mess in the shoe department when I go. It's ok, I enjoy a scavenger hunt sometimes.
