jessica6 Posted August 10, 2003 Posted August 10, 2003 Hello.. I made a post a while ago about wedge heel boots. When I was in San Francisco last year, I found 2 pair at DSW. Always looking for more though! I'm looking for boots with ~4-5" wedge heels, no platform. The ones I found in SF are: 4.5" http://seductra.netfirms.com/jessica6/jheels96.jpg 4" http://seductra.netfirms.com/jessica6/jheels95.jpg If anyone has any leads, I'd love to hear about it! Thanks!
Heelfan Posted August 10, 2003 Posted August 10, 2003 Use your search engine to find La Piazza Shoes. Pictures of La Piazza's wedge-heeled boots being worn are on Joak's High Heel Site, worn by Joak himself. Cheerfully yours, Heelfan Onwards and upwards!
jessica6 Posted August 10, 2003 Author Posted August 10, 2003 Well, I've seen La Piazza. I was hoping for something costing about the square root of what they cost on La Piazza. The ones I got in SF were about $50, but I'd go as high as about $200. I found a place that will custom make for me, for about $400, but it's so hard to know what that final product will look like. If I don't like it, I can't return it.
Joak Posted August 10, 2003 Posted August 10, 2003 Hi Jessica, nice to hear from you again - and sad to hear that you still haven't found your wedge heeled boots! Sorry that it's the same answer like last time - still don't know another source for those heels best wishes Joak
jessica6 Posted August 10, 2003 Author Posted August 10, 2003 Hello Joak! The custom site I mentioned was one you provided me (western something.. I can't remember). I came close to having them made, but wanted a better description/example of how they might look from the maker. The maker was not able to provide me this information, so I continued my search elsewhere. I wonder if a shoe repair shop could convert a pair of stiletto type heels into a wedge...
Yamyam Posted August 11, 2003 Posted August 11, 2003 I couldn't see the images, which was a big shame. I have a nice pair of 4" wedge ankle boots, bought from Schuh on the high street. I don't know of any other sources for high wedges, as most of the specialist retailers seem to to stilettos instead. Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic"
jessica6 Posted August 12, 2003 Author Posted August 12, 2003 I guess my site doesn't like pictures linked. If you get the error, just click your mouse up in the address field of your browser and hit enter; it will load the image. platform. 4.5" http://seductra.netfirms.com/jessica6/jheels96.jpg 4" http://seductra.netfirms.com/jessica6/jheels95.jpg
Yamyam Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 Oh, I can see the pictures now. Those are nice boots, but then, I'm a big fan of wedge heels, so I'm probably biased. It's nice to see someone else looking good in them! Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic"
