hhdude159 Posted November 18, 2010 Posted November 18, 2010 What kind of female shoes do you people wear beside heels?
jay jay Posted November 18, 2010 Posted November 18, 2010 Hi there. Seeing that between my wife and myself that we got about 50 pairs of shoes, and we wear the same size, I can pick and chose what to wear. We have the following: about 10 pairs 13 cm wedges, boots up to 10cm and some kitten heels tht I do not really like feel uncimfortable in them. then my favourite about 15 pairs of high heels up to 13 cm.
wolf Posted November 18, 2010 Posted November 18, 2010 I really love heels. but, I don't know why, I'd like to try ballerinas at home , and we wear the same size, It's a shame that me and my girlfriend don't wear the same size, too! :-)
ShockQueen Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Ballet flats, wedges, and even some athletic sneakers in fashionable colours just becuase they don't weigh as much. Jeez....have you noticed how male shoes feel like lead bricks after not wearing them for some time???? SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
jay jay Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 You are right there mens shoes feel like bricks after you have worn some nice heels. It is a pity that I cannot wear my heels to work, but I have worn one pair of slipons 4" to the shops under my long jeans without anyone noticing them.
jay jay Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 I am so gifted and blessed to have such a wonderful lady that does not mind me wearing everything. I am busy taking photos and will post them soon.
Maninheels Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Other than heels I really like Mary Jane flats. I really like Mary Janes of any type but they are my favorite flats by far.
docs41 Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 I'll wear most any style of women's shoe--not just heels. If the shoe fits-buy it!!!!!!
hh4evr1 Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 I have a few pairs of flats and may get some womens loafers.
Mike Hinch Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 For me it is kind of simple, all my shoes come from the women's department so that I do not need to put up with this crap that mens shoes come in two varieties that being wide and extra wide and that is anywhere from uncomfortable to painful. There is just no need for my feet to slip all the way to the front. My low heels include my favorite Reebok both low and high top. There was a lucky find at a thrift store size 11 ladies hiking boots. Some low heel sandals. Medium to low heel nurse and waitress shoes. Just about anything that is good for the occasion but all from the women's department. Got a pair of brown Clinic shoes 11aaa. The first time that I saw those I did not think that I could ever fit into them but somehow I gave them a try and did love the feel. And that was not just an extreme feel for the fun of it I could actually wear those Clinic 11aaa all day and then some. While this narrow thing is true it is also my cover story because mens shoes are just plain ugly.
jay jay Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 I have a lot of womens shoes and intend getting myself some flats that I can wear to work even some flat boots for the coming winter. I
yozz Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 The past years I have bought only in the women department. I have rather narrow feet for a man, but in women shoes they are rather normal. And much more choice, more elegant etc. I just have to select reasonably neutral boots for my work. If I don't there will be an international gossip circuit. This may influence a few things. Better hang in there till my retirement. But there are nice flats or almost flats as well. A few cm heel in a neutral appearance I have no problems with. Y. Raise your voice. Put on some heels.
Pete Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 I have worn women's flat casuals all the time for about 20 years. SAS is my favorite brand. My work boots are in women's sizes also. I have never had a comment on it.
Sangue16 Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 I hope it's okay that I post even though I'm a woman... I was shocked that you all wear and like the style of women's general shoes other than heels! I love heels and they are all I own. By absolute necessity I have a pair of old, old Converse for gym class and jogging but not to wear any other time. I did not realize they could be likeable other than wearing them because that is "the type of shoe women ought to wear," but there must be if you guys are and you also have the good taste to love heels. What do you find that you like in women's shoes? Do you ever find it anoying that shoemakers like to tack a bow on to any women's shoes rather than actually build design elements? Peeptoe heels are my passion... and flexibility: www.Flexines.net

I wear them because they fit me better and are about half the weight of equivalent men's shoes. I don't do bows.
ilikekicks Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 I hope it's okay that I post even though I'm a woman... I was shocked that you all wear and like the style of women's general shoes other than heels! I have narrow feet, as mentioned earlier, ' mens ' shoes/footware is way to wide for me. This is what I usually wear on a daily basis.. I havent worn the sketchers yet as its snowy and cold. I have quite a few pairs of flats. REPEATEDLY ARGUMENTATIVE, INSULTING AND RUDE. BANNED FOR LIFE.
Mike Hinch Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 That is another interesting point to consider. There were times that I decided to pass on a shoe acquisition from the discount rack because of design, decoration or color because I did feel that made it too girly.
SleekHeels Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 The last pair of trainers/sneakers I bought were from the women's section. I preferred the colour and style. I have a couple of pairs of walking shoes which I also like for their slightly softer colours and more streamlined styling (the mens ones tend to look like monster truck tyres). I also have two pairs (one white, one black) like these ( http://www.ca.skechers.com/en-ca/product/76356/work-bikers-hobbie/bbk/ ) which I like because the more open style is cooler/fresher to wear than being wrapped up in socks and laces. Finally I have a couple of pairs of biker-style ankle boots (one black, one tan) which again have a more streamlined and less clunky style that the mens equivalent and have a subtle buckle detailing which is a nice touch. I must admit there is an aspect of appeal that they come from the womens section, but actually I wouldn't buy anything from the women's section that I didn't like, and if I liked something in the men's section I'd buy it. It just happens that there's generally a "cuteness" to the women's styling that I find appealing, aspirational and I identify with, same as with heels. If you like it, wear it.
WhyNotMenToo Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 Here are some of my heels that I wear from knee high high heel boots to pumps. 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!
Mike Hinch Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Not too many nasty pointies in that pile, that is good.
shoobydoo Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I have a couple of pairs of flats and heels also one pair of flat boots, on the look out for some nice wedges.
Guest Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Tennis shoes. I have several pair of sketchers. I even have steel toe womans tennis shoes. Cowboy boots. I have some shoe boots by zodiac. I have a few other paiir Of flat boots/shoes, none are very fem.
Heelster Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Oh this is good - - Womens Steel Toe work boots. But there is a reason. First off, I wear a womens size 9 in work boots. Nobody locally stocks a mens size 7. Then to top it off, The same model in womens cost about $20 to $30 dollars less, and has extra padding. Most comfortable work boots I have ever had. The guys at the shop know about it, and I laugh when they say something. I remind them that mine cost less.
Guest Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Mine are WORX tennis shoes with steel toe. Very comfortable.
Shafted Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 I also have steel toes for women. Shafted, the boots that is!

fatfuzz Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 I have 3 pairs of "ballet" flats which I wear all the time round the house and stuff.
Mechanic Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 Sneakers. Love the very tall Nike "boots". Over jeans or leggings during the winter.
pebblesf Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 I love cool sneaks too, especially vintage Nike/Adidas/Puma...
