though religious.. my best heel viewing experiences come from the church i grew up in. i've seen many heels there! so... Amen AnitaC!!!! I'm familiar with Focus on the Family.. from the radio... but.. had no clue in practice they could be so concervative.... oh well. keep on heeling girl!! rock them even higher!!! let the whole world know.. you're the hottie in heels. RPM ps. alas.. folks fear what they don't know.... oh well

why oh why aren't we neighbors!!!!!!!!!

that is a great example of TC that looks hot!!! thanks for the pic! RPM

asked my lady to drive in 5 inch.. the car was stuck at the time. she was a trooper and managed to make it out.. i shoveled though... some. it was my request. she' never wear heels that tall to drive.. let alone when stuck. she drives in flats mainly. RPM

i so know the feeling.. my lady now has a growing collection of heels in the 4 inch territory. she's proud of her collection.. loves them.. and wears them when I'm around! in fact.. she's working up from that point on her own.. i might add. now that she's ok with it and is used to how i feel about it. blows my mind! she met me with less than 25 pairs of shoes.. she has over 30 pairs 4 inch or over... not counting those below.. or close to 4 inch. and she's getting rid of many of her lower heels and focusing on just having higher heels around! i'm thrilled... who knows.. your lady may do the same. however if not.. i'm just happy she surprised you this way!!! RPM

Tanya, I just want to say in passing, you're very pretty and those heels go oh so well with you!!!! just amazing!!! i wanted to say that before moving on to my night. also.. while most have to go up a size when in taller heels (due to the spreading of the toes and supporting structures). some with 'higher' archs have their feet look like it shrank because the arch 'absorbed' the angle of the foot. this has happened to one of my friends. to her.. the heels need to be purchased snug because when she stands (most of the time she's in heels she's standing) the arch 'absorbs' the angle and the shoe now fits perfectly. doesn't make sense to me.. but after seeing it with my eyes.. i believe it. but at anyrate.. you're a sexy gal... bf is fortunate to have you!!!! i'll be back to see how you're doing along this thread. keep your heeling going.. and in time.. with a bigger budget.. you'll be rocking along beautiful I too am saddened that heels over 4 inch are becoming super hard to find.. but fashion changes.. high heels will make a comeback ( i hope tech doesn't prevent such a comeback though) RPM

too funny PiB!!!!!!!

these may be a repeat.. but got a question... my lady is looking for where she could find not only these.. but the others in the set from Steve Madden. I can't find them anywhere. US9.5 size. thanks.

RPM

p.s. any info.. name of the shoe (doesn't say inside the shoe).. location.. anything would be greatly appreciated!

one last thing bubba... to address your comfort in 5inch heels. i'm more apt to believe someone can get really good at walking in 5inch heels than 6 inch. not that 6 inch can't be done.. it's just not that easy. but because we've got vintage pics and vids.. we all know that 5 and 6 inch can be done. especially if you work towards that goal. the human body can do a lot of adjusting when properly trained. but i feel i've taken the thread far off topic.. so i'll stop now. RPM

love that clip.. that is walking in 6 inch heels! the art not many can do too well!

hjt101.. you're so right!! absolutely.. it's how the wearer does what she does in the heels she's in. There is a gal I know.. I love her taste in heels. I've been working for a year to get her to model her shoes for me. and she's pretty to. her sister too for that matter. the sister won't get up to 5 inch. she says it's tough for her to get up to and beyond 4 inch.. the most i've seen her do comfortably was 4 inchers.. and once a 4.5 incher but you could sorta tell it was pushing her limits. the gal I'm referring to.. she's done 5 inch and made it look super easy. in fact.. today.. i didn't have my camera and she had on 5 inch heels from highestheel.. the same one I bought for my gald.. and I measured.. they are 5 inch. .my lady struggles with them. most gals I know who have that shoe struggle... but this girl.. walked as if they were just another pair of 3 inchers. I wish I had a vid camera.. she's so graceful. when I asked what is her max height to wear.. she says she doesn't know.. she's only found heels up to 5 inch in the stores and as long as she's not standing all day in them, she manages just fine. if she has much standing to do, she brings a pair of 4 or 3 inch to change into. Bubba.... i've never met Erica or Maud. But I read their stories. I am not always convinced that they are in fact in 5 inchers.. however.. given some of the details they've posted.. I do beleive they do wear 5 inchers more often than not (in terms of how much they say they do). I think it's concievable that Maud does that more than Erica.. and as the post indicates.. Erica tends to pay the price for that and is more open about the discomfort that comes from a long day in 5 inchers. the gal I mentioned who wore 5 inch heels today... i've only seen her do it in settings that require more sitting than standing. she looks totally at ease in them when walking about. when standing in place for a period of time.. you can tell from her posture that she is aware they're that tall. but she's very agile in her heels. i spoke to a professional photographer about the topic of fetish heels. he says in 100 women.(who he works with).. about 5 can do 5+ inch comfortable as if they're born in them. about 4 will learn to look at ease in them for the photo sessions. only 3 will be able to hit 6 or 7 inch (no platform). and all the ones who can do it are the ones that take to heels like a fish takes to water. those who dont' naturally take to heels almost never really learn to look at ease in them(6+inch) no matter how much practice. the overwhelming majority tend to be limited to below 5 inch for his shoots. so.. how real is it that most women will take to 6inch in every day setting? not very likely (bubba... I feel Maud will talk about venturing int 6inch whereas Erica won't.. just a gut feeling) in all my days.. like I said.. I've only met tow ladies who did 6 inch and made it look easy. and one was a US 7.5 the other a US7. but.. one only did it for special banquet and special event deals where sitting was the choiced option.. the other one.. taught in class in her extreme heels. trust me.. none of the fellas focused much... RPM

in all my years of watching high heeled women.. what has been said in the recent post holds true.. not many women can wear fetish heels and stand in them.. let alone walk in them. (by fetish.. i mean 5+ inch) in all my years of looking for it.. only three women in my life time have had the ability to use 5 inch for any reasonable lenght of time (mainly sitting at a special event).. and these women are close friends of my family. only one of those can do 6 inch for any length of time.. and that was years ago. she won't or can't do it now. but enough said.. i'm just repeating everythin i've read before. just really be careful.. and do it for fun. and Wickets just shown a great example of fun! RPM

great pics PiB.. i love seeing them!!!! great advice too.. better be patient than being one. and yes.. 3UK or5US is rather small for 6 inchers.. it's like the equivalient of 7 inch for larger sizes.. so i've been told.. but those who do it.. are mighty brave!!!! RPM p.s. my lady is toying a bit more with her 5 inchers.. not yet ready for the streets yet, but i love seeing her try and she is noticing

i'm sorry you are going through it. i won't say anything cliche here.. time and introspection was my key. i had a super super hard breakup years ago. friends all told me that they've never heard of someone go through the crap i went through. what i've learned from it made me a better person.. a more sensitive person.. a better individual and a better mate for the next.. current.. woman in my life. as it appears.. she's the one and last person i'll date. if this ever fails (not only do i pray it never fails.. but work hard to make it work ) i'll not do it again really. however.. i've learned patience.. communication.. and best of all.. i can recover and heal. give yourself time.. you'll know when you're ready to move on.. just don't brood and help youself stay stuck. i won't offer more in terms of advice.. but suffice it to say.. in time.. this too shall pass. RPM

gotta give it to you.... you're woring those plats!!! and you've got sexy feet too!!! thanks for posting! RPM

I'll second that Derf,

size 3 uk is small, my gf is a 5 and she struggles in 4" a 6" heel is very very high ,i think Peachy has some and wears them regularly though.

Wonder how her shop is going in Bristol, not had time too go there yet,

i wonder how she's doing too

Thanks for all the advice. I think I really need to practice a bit more before I feel confident wearing them anywhere. I can walk ok but I think it has to be perfect.

the part I underlined.. that is what my lady always says and i miss out on seeing her in heels. she's a great heeler in my opinion.. many feel the same way. however.. she doens't practice that much because she feels she's not perfect enough in ability to practice, let alone go higher.. however. i'm not upset about it.. i'm thrilled she does what she already does at pretty nice height.

but i digress.

take your time practicing.. you'll be just fine! you'll make it.. sounds like you're one of the few who have the gift of heeling... by that.. i mean... you can rapidly climb up the heel height. just pace yourself.. don't push so hard to be really sore.. but build up over time.

and from a man's point of view. if you can walk well.. you don't have to be perfect.. only time makes perfection.. you have to be comfy with it so you can walk about the whole level of the date you'll need to walk without fear of over tiring or falling.

good luck.. can't wait to hear your progress.

RPM

fantastic.. just fantastic.. great red pumps here!!! RPM

as one who isn't much a mega platform fan... you're doing well with yours. and on top of that.. you've got some sexy feet! nice toe-rings.. and I love hosed feet!!!! if you got pics in non-plats heels.. i'd love to see.. if not.. that is cool tooo... i don't know why i missed your posts.. .but glad i got them now! RPM

oh my.. i love that shade of red.. and Donna sports them well. very complimentary and sexy! RPM

just another prime example of rare finest animal print!

DVT's are in the legs.. never heard it in the feet... but that is a side note. kicking off your heels.. as great as it sounds.. for most.. the feet will swell.. and then.. 'stuffing' them back can be pretty harsh on your feet.. if not.. potentially damaging. i was advised as a child.. when on long trips.. tighten up your laces in your sneakers (the dreaded word on this forum) so to minimize swelling.. the one time i didn't head advice.. i paid for it. got to our destination.. nothing fit my feet. had to walk bare feet two days before feeling comfy in any kind of shoes. no.. i don't wear heels.. but my lady says long trips.. if she takes her shoes off... she elevates them or else the swelling prevents her from being comfy when they come back on. most female flyers i see in heels.. either keep them on and walk about the cabin (great for me to see and enjoy) or elevate their feet on the seat next to them if it's available (another great sight I enjoy when I walk the cabin). but with fuller flights lately, most folks are opting not to fly in heels. (just an observation.. no stats on it) but i dont' wear heels.. so i can't make more personal points on the matter. RPM

just to echo Hoverfly.. patience.. but if you must absolutely push the issue.. practice.. and stretch gently. RPM

not so much the tottering, but the wearing of very high heels. i love it. my lady isn't the biggest fans of wearing heels.... especially if there is no need to wear heels (like around the house). so. whenever she does.. i love it.. but i don't pressure her for it. (not saying anyone here does either). but it's amazing to watch! RPM

though i don't enjoy seeing a woman in pain.. i do enjoy seeing shoeplay like dangling. can be so entertaining to watch. RPM
