Tech Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Look at the boot...to me it seems like the boot have a very high wedge heel... Have you ever seen motorbike boots? This is NOT a heel, its the extra layers of protection around the ankle which are attached to the outside.

HHfanatic Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 Have you ever seen motorbike boots? This is NOT a heel, its the extra layers of protection around the ankle which are attached to the outside. Well, after being riding motorcycles for 20 years, I think I have seen a few... Look at the sole of the bootand look at the shape of the foot.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smittybill53 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I would have to agree with Tech on this one. It is just a standard motorcycle boot. However the angle with which the photo is taken can give the impression of a wedge heel. I'd have to say it really is just a standard boot. But one can always hope. One of the more recent Harley adds has a woman in high heeled over the knee boots. http://www.my68flh.com/2008/10/08/harley-adds-muscle-to-v-rod-with-marisa-miller-video/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockpup Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Dainese does make a pair of womens boots with about a 1.5" heel, much higher then mens, although still easy to ride with and comfie when walking around. They are my usual riding boots now (formerly known as "JimC") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1g0r Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 btw: hhfanatic's 2nd photo reveals the cause of the wedge-heel appearance. the shadowing on the top of the boot (vamp-arch area) and the horizontal patterning cause a mild optical illusion of more boot. society has decided that men will be confined to certain items of clothing, and certain modes of presentation. until we rebel PERSONALLY against this, we are diminished!

kikepa Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 These are motorcycle boots with heels. And here I thought it was the bike that was giving her a wedgie...

Thighbootguy Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 JimC – Yes, I do remember that photo. I thought it looked great at the time and I still do. I’ve been wearing a pair while I’ve been out riding also, only I’m riding a bicycle. Benno – “My goodness! That's some really bad photoshop work.” Your right and thanks for pointing it out. That was one of the first images I ever made and I think it was done with Photoshop 3.2. R1g0r – “and a THONG bodysuit! I think I'm in love!” In all there years I hadn’t noticed that, but that image was made back when it was a popular fashion style. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
