Majo Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Bought these on Saturday. The black ones are 7cm high, kind of low but they'll do. Specially for long walks. I was looking for them ever since I saw them but they were always in a caki colour to orange. I found them in black so... into the bag. The short ones are quite cool, a bit snug. I'll have to break them in.

adz302003 Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 As I said a bit new to all this! Hopefully the photos are now visable!
Thighbootguy Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Changing the permissions seems to have fixed things. Nice Boots! Are they destine for out and about wear? I have a similar pair and would be interested in what you pair them with. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
adz302003 Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Thanks Thighbootguy! I am trying to build up the courage to wear them out! I have worn them with some shiny leggings they have a 4 inch heel and are very comfortable to wear.
Shafted Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Nice boots adz302003. I would wear those myself. One thing though, they look a bit large on you. Your heel doesn't look like it's fitting into the heel counter properly. Shafted, the boots that is! View my gallery here http://www.hhplace.o...afteds-gallery/ or view my heeling thread here http://www.hhplace.org/topic/3850-new-pair-of-boots-starts-me-serious-street-heeling/ - Pm me if you want fashion advice or just need someone to talk to.
adz302003 Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Thanks Shafted! i do think they are a bit large. I may go half a size smaller in future.Many thanks.
StormClaw Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 I feel like a special or sale person.Sure as a job I am a sales person but I always seem to shop the sales/specials Bought these today at $60NZD.They are down from $140.For that price I could not say no.Had a good chat with the sales girl as I tried them on,walked around asked for some fashion tips and left with the boots.Very pleased with myself after being depressed about uni and car problems Sorry for the bad quality,there wasnt enough non-artificial light.Boots are 4" thigh boots,but can flip down to knee high. http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab7/serunox/Boots%20and%20Heels/IMAG0084.jpg
CPB Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Nice boots, look great with the jeans. Wouldn't mind picking up a bargain like that!!
SleekHeels Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Wow, that's less than $50 US - great find, especially that they can be worn both ways. I like pointy (like the ones in your avatar) but the roundness of these with the less shiny texture adds a softness which I like too. What a winter this is turning out to be for you... Enjoy! If you like it, wear it.
StormClaw Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Thanks CPB and sleekheels.I realy couldnt believe that find.And great thing is winter is just starting.So Ill be wearing boots a lot when going out.Or Ill try haha. I like both styles,but the pointy ones will draw more attention but the less shiny boots feels little less femine but I like both boots
Thighbootguy Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 I was browsing a thrift store Sunday and spotted these tall brown ankle boots in a 13W. They are a Payless product and I have another pair in black in a 12. The 13W is almost too large but for $5 I can wear a heavier sock. The heel is 3¾" and is rather ugly but the boots (even the 12s) are comfortable enough for all day wear. I have been wearing the black pair at work for several months. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
jwhite44 Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 ...They are a Payless product and I have another pair in black in a 12... Do you have a picture of them? I'm not sure I like the black heel with the brown boots, but black and black might look good.
Steve63130 Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Jwhite44, Take a look at the post above again. There are photos of them. You missed them. Steve
jwhite44 Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 I meant, do you have a picture of the OTHER, all black pair? Sorry for the confusion.
WhyNotMenToo Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 StormClaw, Awesome boots, I wish I had them. I also feel it's time to end gender based clothing that men should have the same fashion rights as the woman have enjoyed for 60 years. Equality in Fashion!
ImInHeels Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 I just got these: Nice and cheap, reduced from £40 to £15 and have a rubber heel
dbert Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 The boots are not all that new, though I have not posted a photo before. I went out in these boots earlier today and walked around an outlet shopping mall. I decided to try on a couple of different pairs of female fit jeans in the gap outlet and took photos. As they were 50% off I decided to buy a pair of skinny fit jeans to be able to wear the boots outside jeans, which is not something I've done before, preferring to go for the "covert" look. However, the heels on these make a lot of noise anyway, so I'm looking forward to my first public outing in this combo of skinny jeans and knee high boots.
SleekHeels Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 I just got these: Nice and cheap, reduced from £40 to £15 and have a rubber heel They look great for casual everyday heeling, like you could walk for miles in them without needing to change into flats (which I had to do lately). If you like it, wear it.
Korbach Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 Very nice boots, I think they can be worn very well as man under the pants. Great outfit!
danielp6406 Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Just got these nice boots from Aldo. I saw them last fall and I fell in love at first sight. But the price was too high (They are in real leather) They are now on sale (less than 50%) so I could not resist from buying them It is too warn to wear them now but I will be ready for next fall !
radiodave Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Nice! I've got the same boots, and they are quite comfortable.
at9 Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Great looking boots but this is where we are a little jealous of guys with smaller feet. I'm only UK9/EU43 but Aldo's largest size is supposedly UK9/EU42 and it feels more like EU41 in several pairs of boots I have tried.

Those look nice Daniel. And apparently you got them at a good price too. Enjoy!
StormClaw Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Very very nice boots Daniel.Thats some very good looking boots.So jealous
benno Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Great looking boots but this is where we are a little jealous of guys with smaller feet. I'm only UK9/EU43 but Aldo's largest size is supposedly UK9/EU42 and it feels more like EU41 in several pairs of boots I have tried. ALDO sizes are very small. I'm a UK 7ish (EU40) and have some shoes that are UK 6.5 (39.5) and fit me perfectly. With Aldo I'm a UK 8 in most of their styles. Don't even go near their Atlantic City style from a couple of years back. I had a pair in size UK 8 that were murderous. They were more like a UK 6. I bought them off Ebay (to re sell) for about £10 and sold them for £55. I was honest with my auction and made clear that there's no way a size 8 foot would fit into a size 8 Atlantic City shoe. It's not just me. My girlfriend has issues with ALDO too. She has slim feet and is also a UK 7. I bought her some shoes from ALDO (They were called Fawson) and they were too big length wise but she couldn't feel her toes after trying them on for 10 minutes!!! It's a shame as ALDO sell some really great styles and lots are very strongly styled and quite masculine apart from the heels.
tpryor Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 These just came on Thursday. VERY comfortable and I have worn them to Starbucks twice and to get my nails done last Saturday.
SleekHeels Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Very cute boots danielp6406 (and radiodave), they almost make me wish it was winter again! If you like it, wear it.
Charlie Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Very cute boots danielp6406 (and radiodave), they almost make me wish it was winter again! I'm glad you underlined 'almost'. lol Charlie Everything I say is a lie!.......I'm lying
