larkofam Posted December 4, 2009 Posted December 4, 2009 I'm rockin' my pink kitten heels as I write this... and check out this pic I took earlier tonight
Bubba136 Posted December 4, 2009 Posted December 4, 2009 any male that is willing to suffer the slings and arrows of the general public while wearing women's shoes, especially woman's high heels, out where anyone can see them, can wear any color he wants....because wearing a pair of pink pumps won't look any more unusual than wearing a plain black pair. So, all you guys that wanted to wear a color besides the boring black or brown boots or pumps, get with it....get that red pair and get out and about --- what are you waiting for? Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
larkofam Posted December 4, 2009 Posted December 4, 2009 after I took the pic and posted I actually went out in my pink kitten heels for a bit... loved it
Jen J Posted December 5, 2009 Posted December 5, 2009 Well.... Spoke with a female clothing designer friend of mine, pink is fine, it is purple that you have to watch out for. jen 1
Jen J Posted December 5, 2009 Posted December 5, 2009 Those are very nice and I like the color. But I don't think I would wear pink shoes in public ... http://www.sexyshoes.com/p-602-8030-...heel-pump.aspx Actually I can tell you from experience those run about 1/2 size small. Jen
danielp6406 Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 http://www.sexyshoes.com/p-602-8030-...heel-pump.aspx Actually I can tell you from experience those run about 1/2 size small. Jen Thanks for the info about sizing. Do you wear them in public ? I guess a walk at the Navy Pier (with several thousand people looking at you) would be quite an experience And thinking about it I agree with Bubba136 when he says "wearing a pair of pink pumps won't look any more unusual than wearing a plain black pair"
highheelwale Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 In my opinion if they have the right size for them and they like they pink color well everything is for people many years ago they would go out in pink shirt now they wear pink t shirts shirts and white shoes so why not pink pums!
krazykev64 Posted December 19, 2009 Posted December 19, 2009 i dont make a habit of walking around in heels at home or outside. pink happens to be a colour i hate. on the other hand pink can be used to good effect in the right situation. for example in august next year (2010) i have organised to walk a 10 MILE sponsored walk to raise money for cancer research. i will be wearing pink from head to toe including a very high pair of pink stiletto sandals as seen in the picture i have posted. as you can clearly see it is rather girly and not really a mans colour. at the end of the day its up to the individual what colour they wear. i am going to set up a new thread to get an idea of what to wear with the pink sandals. my wife says pink trousers but i say pink skirt and cycle shorts underneath with bare legs and feet. i do after all want to get a bit of attention as i will be fundraising. as the heels are the main theme of the walk they need to be easily seen.
kfsteve391 Posted December 19, 2009 Posted December 19, 2009 I love the pic of your pink sandals. These are beautiful and you will attract lots of attention. I have five pairs of pink sandals. They are very feminine looking and sexy. Hope your fund raiser is successful.
Dawn HH Posted December 19, 2009 Posted December 19, 2009 Nice pair of pink sandals. Hope your fundraiser is a great success Cheers--- Dawn HH. High Heeled Boots Forever!
Heel-Lover Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Hi all, I think colour is a minimal consideration when placed alongside the other more feminine factors, such as a high heeled shoe, the altered walk, the sound of the walk, other attire - eg skirt/ capris pants etc... Women have the luxury of having shoe styles and colour combinations galore - if men wear heels the least we can do is style-up a bit and coordinate our look. So in summary - Pink is great - if it suits the rest of your clothing/ accessories. rgds Heel-Lover

Iamme Posted February 14, 2010 Posted February 14, 2010 I'm not for it- but I never liked the color pink anyway. Doesn't mean it can't look good, but I think it needs a great well-put together outfit to go with it.
yozz Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 I voted "with the right outfit". Because we culturally assign pink to girls and light blue to boys, starting at age 1 day, it may not be easy though to put together a coherent manly looking outfit that involves pink shoes. Maybe we should have a race, who of our specialists can come up with a picture of such an outfit. Y. Raise your voice. Put on some heels.
Regen Posted March 7, 2010 Posted March 7, 2010 I think the pole is a bit skewed and poorly made. For example, "With the right outfit" and "yes, they can wear them" are too closely related. I think a second question would have been better as well as a rewarding of the first question. For example: Question 1: Should men wear pink high heels? -Yes! -I'm not thrilled with the idea. -No! Question 2: If so, in what way? -Any way! -Only with the right outfit. -Only for the home. -Only in bed. -No to #1.
Crazyewok Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I'm probbaly gunna get some negative comments for this. But in public NO!!!! Not yet anyway. I think it would look to odd and draw to much attencion. In private sure.
HappyinHeels Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I scanned this thread back to its origin and made a few observations; Simcity3 started the thread posing the question and personally concluding pink heels could be worn but with care as to location and outfit. Bubba136 noted that a man wearing a high-heeled shoe of the pink color, and its automatic connection to anything feminine, would essentially become a moot point when one considers the MAN is wearing a HIGH-HEELED SHOE. If such a person openly chooses to wear such a feminine article of clothing then it is a foregone conclusion that he doesn't give a penny for anyone's negative thought on the color. Crazyewok notes that he doesn't like the idea of any public wearing. Yet, within the last week or so, Crazyewok has begun to discover his real identity and has opened up to people in his world. Somewhere his path may cross that of another individual finding their place in the world and that guy might be wearing pink heels. This is where the rubber meets the road-perhaps where the heel meets the sidewalk for this thread. Everyone here needs to find out where they are and where they are going as human beings. The same reasons the gender barrier for style of shoe worn should (and is) be broken hold true for the half-baked idea that one particular color (PINK) must be reserved for women. Men are now wearing extremely nice pink ties and pink shirts with their business suits. I love pink because I love the outdoors and growing flowers many of which are pink. WHich brings us to what roniinheels said. He will participate in a 10 mile walk for cancer in August wearing ALL pink. The participants should be emulated for the type of human being the world needs more of. THE SUBSTANCE OF ONE'S CHARITABLE DEEDS SHOULD NEVER BECOME OBSCURED BY THE SYMBOLISM OF ARTIFICIAL COLOR BARRIERS. Let fashion freedom ring! Liberty and justice for all! HappyinHeels
Crazyewok Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I'm not aginst men wearing pink. But I think society needs to get used to heel wearing men first before throwing pink heels at them. All I'm saying is that its best to take small steps. But that just my opinion.
Cl0setheels Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 These are my pink heels. They are so comfy to wear I bought them because i really liked how they look. Didn't care much about how they look on me. I don't wear them outside anyways.
Dawn HH Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 Imroter:-) Have you tried wearing those pink shoes with a pink shirt and grey jeans yet? See what you think about that outfit. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
ShockQueen Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 These are my pink heels. They are so comfy to wear I bought them because i really liked how they look. Didn't care much about how they look on me. I don't wear them outside anyways. Now THOSE heels I'd wear out and about in a cold second without even another thought! Nice find indeed! SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
Cl0setheels Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 @Dawn HH I only have blue jeans. @ShockQueen They are by H&M and they where cheap. Got them for €7 if i remember correctly.
Simcity3 Posted March 30, 2010 Author Posted March 30, 2010 @Dawn HH I only have blue jeans. @ShockQueen They are by H&M and they where cheap. Got them for €7 if i remember correctly. I have never seen H&M have any nice heel's so guess you did a pretty lucky find there:P http://meinheels.wordpress.com/
Cl0setheels Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 I have never seen H&M have any nice heel's so guess you did a pretty lucky find there:P I have quite a lot of shoes made by H&M Every now and then they have great heels. In the Netherlands atleast.
Bubba136 Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 HI... What's this? Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
5inchforme Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Pink heels are a part of my collection and I can't say that I would ever pass up a pair if I liked them. Pink shirts are fine pink shoes are too.
Dawn HH Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Marziovitt:-) You have got to say a lot more than "Hi" if you want to start a conversation here on the Forum. Tell us a bit about yourself and just what excites you about high heels. Welcome to the Forum. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
