Goodbye from JoeNJ. Take care everyone. I wear up to 4.5" heels; my usual heel-height is 2 1/2" . I am too busy to visit and review this Bulletin Board. Best of luck to you all. Be safe and sane. Please, no tears. (LOL). Take care, Craig and Knee-highs.

It is official. My current heel-height is 4/1/4" heels. I wore these to work today. I do too much walking at work though, and it is an exercise. I won't wear heels this high to work, again. Was fun trying, though.

From: JoeNJ

SUBJECT: I have graduated to 4 1/4" heels! <br> I can wear nice jeans or nice trousers over these; yet not wear them to work Monday--Wednesday. Oh well. Whaddaya think?

From: JoeNJ

SUBJECT: I have graduated to 4 1/2" heels! <br> Bought these at Nine-West store on 5th Ave., NYC. Sales-ladies were nice, civilized. I can manage these easier than the Jessica Simpson, and they are better quality than the Fabco boots I had (3 1/2 heel; I discarded years ago ). I can wear nice jeans or nice trousers over these; yet not wear them to work Monday--Wednesday. Oh well. Whaddaya think?

Danielle: What happened to your photos?

Sorry, but I think they are ugly.

I found a photo, here goes:

I hope the Jessica Simpson "Parisa boots, black" linked. I wear size 10 Womens'.

I don't post / link pictures often. I will next wear them on my commute to New York City on Friday. Take care everyone.

Hi. I was impulsive and impatient, LOL (sigh). I bought (at full retail) Jessica Simpson "Parisa" boots (knee-high; Oh my! ), in Black (size 10). If I had bought them online from Zappos, I would have saved some dollar$.

How good a quality are these boots? I wear womens' size 10 boots, and the highest heel I can wear is 3 1/2" heels (block heel). Thanks.

What if it is raining hard tommorrow? Do bring an umbrella!!! I am "joenj"; I'll be wearing 2" heels (St. Johnsbury boots). I don't think we should race. Safety first! How much shopping are we going to do?

Yuck. Buy shoes that fit you (width) or don't buy at all. Yuck!

I wear size 10 ( which is Euro 40-41 ) ?

What, nobody saw it? What heels!!!!

I would like to be able to wear different shoes, with a max. heel height of 3" at work; and in town. I cannot, for the time being. I was High Heeling today (boots are 2" heels, women's ) . I think if we men can walk safely in our shoes, then we will be <<tolerated>>. If our behaviour is within the "accepted 'Framework of Standards' " where we work, than we can wear our boots OK. I can't wear 3" heels well, until I can demonstrate that I cannot trip and fall (Fall Flat On Your Face == FFOYF ) . Best regards from northern New Jersey U.S.A.

I wore my heels (2" womens boots; St. John's Bay leather boots, ankle high ) to my College job today. The more I walk in them, confidently and comfortably, the more <<tolerated>> about it I am. I think 3" may be the maximum; and I agree, thicker heel (non-stilletto) will go over better. Also, for my own comfort, 2 1/2" ( or less ) is better, if I have to wander from office to office accross the campus ( like I had to do today ) . Take care, Cheers /signed/ Joe in Northern NJ.

only 75--200 feet to catch the commuter train!!! ROTFL!

Went to Newport Center Mall / Pavonia ( Jersey City ) . today They have an Aldo shoe store there, as well as Bakers (name) Shoe Store ( both had Womens shoes). At Aldo Shoe Store, tried some Women's sz.40(EUrope) boots (pointed toe), with 3" heel. Very nice. Though I don't have the money to buy them ( $149 ) . Sales guy (young guy, 20's) was kind; as was staff. I referred them to this site (the women sales staff). I try to be a good guy. Seasons Greetings! ( I celebrate Christmas). Peace to you all.

DawnHH --

I will look for them. Thanks.

I don't know whether this is what you are looking for or not, but here goes. This is the first Winter since I started street-heeling that I thought that I should look for a pair of women's knee boots with a bit of a lower heel to wear out in the cold weather and for shoveling snow, etc. I picked up, from Naturalizer, a pair of knee high leather boots, (the rest is man-made materials, a warm lining and a 2" block heel with no trim on them at all---just plain and a bit masculine looking, with a round toe box. They also have a bit of a design in the tread to make them a non-slippy rubber sole

Joenj:-)

So far, those boots are working out well. The 2" heel is very easy to walk in and they are quite comfortable in the cold temperatures and also indoors. I have worn them indoors quite a few times all evening and into the wee hours in the morning. My feet stayed comfortable without sweating.

Cheers---

Dawn --- Let me know how those boots fare, in the cold, after a walk in town/city. Thanks.

Hi, JoeNJ here. I like my current heel height ( 2&1/2" ) at work, but what good shoes (maybe lined) do you like (leather) for Winter? What shoes have a nice 1/4" or 1/2" inch platform, with a nice block stacked heel (2 1/2" heel) BTW: I've seen many a cute boot at my college in North NJ and News: Pointed Toes are IN!!!! I do like my women's boots that I own. Help!!! </p>

Hi. Here is the report from North-central New Jersey (USA), and Bethlehem, PA. (LOL).. I wore my St. John's Bay women's 2 1/4" (block-stack) heel to my sisters in Bethlehem, PA for Thanksgiving. Before going, my Dad ( now 68 ) noticed my boots. He said they are nice; took a while to figure they are womens. his girlfriend noticed too, said they are nice ( and they wondered aloud how I like them) and I said I like them. My sister wendy said "Check out those heels!" to me, in a quiet voice. I am SURE she noticed they are Womens boots. But I like them, and I feel sexy ( I am Bi, and my life is tough ) in them. ( sigh ). So, there wasnt bad reaction with 2 1/4" heel heigt. At Dunellen NJ Railroad Station, some people noticed ( teenage girl with her family, 14). They didnt' say anything to me. Mostly non-verbal communication "check out that guy; probably Gay; be careful around him" . Oh well. Diverse crowd ( age-wise) on the train.... mostly Looks and Double-Takes. That's the news from north-central NJ. Take care, all..... /regards/ Joe .

Have you seen that commercial? The woman in the

Mercury car commercial is cute, and wears nice

sky-blue pumps! Cute! Very nice!

Well, I *_AM*_ Bi , and I have worn my Margo-St. John's Bay women's boots ( 2 1/4" heel ) to work, and to Greenwich Village ( NYC ) . Cheers! --- end ---

Nice!!!

Try Aldo Shoes ( outlet store ) on 14th st. near 5th avenue; also 8th st. and 9th St. in Greenwich Village, east of 7th avenue.

You have forgotten my notes/posts about my wearing 2" <<Luceta>> boots that I bought. These, the Margo ( St. Johns Bay ) boots are

Leather, not Vinyl, and are better quality. I *HAVE* been "in heels'' at work before. You forgot, I have no problems with heels up to

3 1/2".

Hey, Joe, what have we been trying to tell ya? !!!!! Good going and the more you wear them the greater confidence you'll gain. Keep us posted on your progress.
