Anita, where is your sense of adventure. This is fun! Bill, let me put the boots back together, and we'll go for a whirl.

They are superb, if only they did them in a lace up ankle boot for a bit of ankle support, I'd be willing to give them a go, although I think it would be indoors!

Hi Ellenjay, thanks for posting some of your wonderful pics here on the driving thread. BB

Hi Heelsrule, walking is a piece of cake. You are tightly laced in, so there is a lot of support, but the secret is to have some proper toe cushions in the bottom to protect your tootsies. Hi Jim, yeah they are LSB, but they are only knee high. It takes long enough to lace them up as it is, nevermind all the way up to the to of your thigh!!

Hi Jo, the instep is 5", so they are comfortable to wear. I've been out in them, and the only problem is if you get over confident going down hill. You start to go "over the top", and then you end up running, which isn't the best idea with a 7" platform under your foot. If you take your time the ankles and knees don't seem to mind. The problem is potholes and stones, which can pitch your ankle over. Otherwise - I luv 'em.

Bubba, I think you are dead right. You wouldn't get too far.

Thanks guys,

Ruud, next time you plan on going to see Donna, let me know as I only work 5 mins away! Meet up ?

The Femme situation - they still wreck my ankles after a short period of time on the hard stuff, but -

I am expected to do the 5, 6, and 7's. How far do expect me to get in the 7's ?

This is not the best picture in the world, but the flash would have spoilt the effect.

Ellenjay, your pictures just get better and better. I love the ones where you are in the car. I take it you drive in them? Have you seen the thread for driving in heels in the fetish section.

Those shoes are brilliant. A little girly maybe, but nice. Will we be lucky enough to see your better half wearing them?

For heellover 1907

yes I do have 2 pairs of ballets, and I can walk / drive in them.

Roundup (its a weedkiller)

Not cheap, but good fun.

I suppose we could ressurect this thread a little.

Any creative comments anyone ?

Ultra thin is an understatement. That is what makes wearing them so much fun, plus the noise from those steel heels.

Here's another one for Bill to think about.

Definitely an 8.

These have been out for a few secluded trials.

Another pair I'm building up to. They're easy enough to walk in, but sownhills are a bit of a problem.

Do you think the lack of a showing toe section would be a little obvious?

Any suggestions?

Kerridwyn, yes I can walk outdoors, not very far, and that heel sounds superb. Heelson, yes it can be done, as long as I don't have to go down hill. Then it looks like are a beached whale as you end up taking ridiculously small steps. Nhoj62, yes they are leather trousers, but they are not especially long in the leg to cover the heels. That is just where they fell to. Wheels, I got the same feeling last night when I got in from work - where are my Screams. Ruud, I'm working on the practice for the stroll. You don't seriously expect to go for a hike in those 7"ers do you?? Thanks for the compliments folks

Dawn,

thanks for the compliment, but I will openly admit, I didn't get that far before my ankles started to complain like hell.

Just a taster!

I know this is a mock up at the moment, but I need to get some smaller skates to get the full effect. The ones I use at the moment are based on a uk size 6, I need some 3/4 's.

Jennifer was right,

they were a mock up to show what could be done. It would actually be a piece of cake to screw through into the platform.

Bill, I've skated in these boots inside the normal tops, and would rate as a 3. The ballets, even though they are somewhat set back rate as a 9. You can't push forward, you just end up going back as you've experienced.

The 12" heels rate at an 8. You can cross the room, but as you can expect, they are somewhat precarious.

Hope the link works.

I've just bought some 7" Screams from Alternative Footwear, plus some ankle ballets.

I just need to get use to extreme heels again.

Heelson, I am really impressed with your boots. What style are they? And how high are the heels? They look great.
