Rockpup Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 tbg: well, at least you know some of the people at Biggs -do- look at your face so they know you even if your not 'the boot guy'. Great to hear of your further adventures, let us know if your neighbor says anything down the road. Jim (formerly known as "JimC")
Fog Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 ....a new pair of Gloria Vanderbild shorts (99¢). These are high waisted shorts with a ¾" inseam. I do so love a bargain These will look good with thigh boots. Absolutely!!
Thighbootguy Posted September 1, 2006 Author Posted September 1, 2006 Well I wore the Gloria Vanderbild denim shorts with a blue dress shirt and my blue leather thigh boots with 5” stiletto heels when I went to Bigg’s this morning. The same register clerk I had yesterday noted, “You wore your boots today”. “Yeah, I had time this morning. … I just found these shorts yesterday, how do they look?” “They look Ok if you like that … Do you like them ?” “Yeah, I do.” “Then there Ok” She has commented before that she really didn’t like my style of dressing, but she really is a nice lady and one of my favorite clerks at Bigg’s. These shorts are really short and the cuff flairs almost like a short skirt with the front and back joined in the middle. They are a little breezy but very comfortable. The top of my thigh boots come within 6” of the cuff of the shorts. Most shorts I have either meet the top of the boots or leave a 2-3” gap and are tight on my leg. This pair also had a higher waist than some of my other pair. The high waist, short length and flair all combine to really show off my boots. It would not be appropriate to bend over while wearing these shorts. This is as close of an image as I have been able to find. This pair has a 6 1/2" inseam. Mine have a 1/2" inseam. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.

TBG)- six inches is a lot on a pair of shorts that size. No I won't make any schoolboyish jokes about you having a lot of balls, but more power to you, and if people don't like it fine - if they do fine.
Thighbootguy Posted September 3, 2006 Author Posted September 3, 2006 I put together another Thighbootguy video of me just puttering around the house. I am wearing my new G.V. shorts and black thigh boots with 5”stiletto heels. They don’t look as short as they really are but they are designed to make your legs look long. This is done by having a high waist and a short inseam so the whole garment wears higher on the body than normal shorts. The waist band is right below my lower rib.

Dawn HH Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 TBG:-) The store people are so used to seeing you in thighboots that they really notice when you don't have them on and make a comment about it. This just proves that you can wear thighboots any time, any day. Congrats! Your braver than I, my friend. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
tal Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 @TBG I watched your vid in the garden. I have to say that i noticed that a man wearing a nice leather skirt and boots can look very normal, almost natural. Good stuff. My username changes every now and then on here. God knows why.
iloveboots Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 Hi TBG....awesome videos! Thank you for sharing, david I put together another Thighbootguy video of me just puttering around the house.

Thighbootguy Posted September 18, 2006 Author Posted September 18, 2006 I had a couple of nice boot outings over the weekend. I went out wearing a long sleeved blue denim shirt with the cuffs rolled up, blue denim shorts, and blue leather thigh boots with 5” stiletto heels. (As often as I have written a description that says “I wore… and thigh boots”, I am still struck by the fact that I’m really doing that). First I went to PetSmart for cat food. The clerk on duty was the one I had ask if my wearing boots was a problem. She had told me it wasn’t a problem at all and that they looked cool. Anyway when I went is she was busy but threw me a nice smile and a Hi. There were two other customers in the store, a lady with a small dog did give my boots a second glance and then just accepted that there was a guy wearing them. The other customer was an older man who stared at my boots and heels for a while and looks like he was going to say something then either thought better of it or thought why bother. (If he had said something I was going to complement his Mickey Mouse shirt). When the clerk got around to me she was as cheerful and nice as she was when I ask about me wearing boots in the store. She helped me carry my stuff out to the car. I didn’t mention that I would have rather made two trips just for the walking fun. Next I went to a Sam’s that I don’t normally go into. The folks there were not used to seeing me (or anyone for that matter) wearing thigh boots. I got a couple of second takes from the customers but most didn’t bother to react at all. One clerk was a little short with his answer to my “where can I find…” question but other than that I just had a lot of fun walking all over the store finding my stuff. When I got to the checkout, the clerk was saying something to the elderly couple in front of me about the good prices so when I got to the clerk I said, “In addition to the good prices, there’s the entertainment value I provide (and nodded toward my boots).” She looked at my boots and said, “Those are great boots”. “Thank you” “They really do look good”. The lady behind me joined in the conversation with, “I couldn’t walk in those”. The clerk said, “I’m looking for Cheryl, she’d really like those.” We had finished so I bid them a good day and headed out. Next I stopped in the big thrift emporium just for a look around. I had to park a good distance from the store and got to walk past the store with the mirrored windows. In the store I overheard a few “Oh my God” comments after I had left an isle but no one seemed to be too bothered. I didn’t find anything I wanted so I headed back to the car. Sa I was walking a lady with a real type “A” personality shouted out to me, “I love those boots”. I called back a “Thank you”. She walked over to me and asked, “Where did you get them?” “There on the WEB, I got these at howcool”. “Do they have them in purple or black?” “I’ve seen them in black but not purple”. “Purple is my favorite color. How much were they?” “Around $60”. “Wow that’s great I spent over $100 for mine. They really look great”. “Even on a guy”? “I knew you were a guy”. “I know, but do they look good with a guy wearing them”? “Yeah, they look great, if you like ‘em, wear ‘em and don’t give a rip what anyone else thinks”. We bid each other a good day. Last I went to Radio Shack for some batteries. I walked in and the clerk (lady) came out from the back room. The expression was priceless. She was filling my order as other customers came into the store and the other clerk came out of the back. He gave me a rather hard look, which I ignored and continued to pay for my stuff. The other customers didn’t seemed too bothered. I walked back out to the car and headed home. This was a fun outing. Folks - Thanks for the kind words on the videos. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Rockpup Posted September 18, 2006 Posted September 18, 2006 More great adventures. It's nice to hear of the compliments you've been getting. I like the new avatar also. have fun Jim (formerly known as "JimC")
Thighbootguy Posted September 23, 2006 Author Posted September 23, 2006 I’ve been stopping at Bigg’s all week wearing a dress shirt, slacks and pull on thigh boots with 4” stiletto heels. No one even seems to notice anymore. Today I wore jeans with a black turtleneck and my blue thigh boots with 5” stiletto heels. I think the these boots with the 5” heel are easier to walk in than the pull on pair with 4” heels. The 5” boots are a little tighter especially with the ankle zipper and are a little more stable. At lunch I went to the local Goodwill (thrift shop) and spotted a pair of tan suede slacks that match the suede jacket I was wearing. For $4.50 I couldn’t pass the up. There not made for a belt and worn with my jacket it a lot of tan leather. I’ll have to find something to break it up a bit. A tall pair of boots comes to mind but I haven’t had a chance to try that yet. The only way to gauge women’s leather clothing is to try it on. I normally wear a 14-16 in women’s jeans and these slacks are marked 12 but they fit very comfortable and are not tight at all. I didn’t stop anywhere on the way home. It’s been a busy week and I’m looking forward to getting some sleep. JimC - I was hoping someone would notice the new avatar. It took a bit of fussing to make it. Glad you like it. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Thighbootguy Posted September 23, 2006 Author Posted September 23, 2006 This afternoon I went to a Sam’s I don’t normally go to get some groceries. I was wearing a tan leather jacket, black turtleneck, jeans, and blue leather thigh boots with 5” stiletto heels. This is the same store I went to last week where I got the nice comments. I shopped all over the store just to be shopping then I picked out my stuff and headed for the register. The line I picked had a cute clerk and was also a ling line. W chatted as she rang up my stuff and when she was done I asked, “Are these too much for this part of town?” She said, “You’ve been in my line before.” “Really?” “Yeah, last time you were wearing black ones.” “I’m sorry, I really didn’t remember.” “Well, I wasn’t wearing something distinctive to remember”. “I wont forget again.” We bid each other a good day with big smiles. Thinking back, I still don’t remember her but I do remember talking with a register clerk about my boots and having another passing clerk comment on them, but this was months ago. It must have been the same clerk. I guess a guy wearing thigh boots is more memorable than I thought. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Dawn HH Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Thighbootguy:-) A guy wearing thighboots would be much more memorable to the public than you may think, as to my co-worker the day that you visited the Science Center where I work. He still hasn't forgotten your image. You made a good impression on him for sure. I also noticed your new Avatar pic, but only mentioned it just now as I haven't posted for a while. Was on vacation. Cheers--- Dawn HH . High Heeled Boots Forever!
Fog Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Dawn's hit the nail on the head. How many people have ever seen a man wearing thigh boots? The first time you see something you've never seen before which you weren't expecting it's a surprise. They've all got used to you, the shock factor has gone.
Thighbootguy Posted October 8, 2006 Author Posted October 8, 2006 I’ve added another video Thighbootguy in the Kitchen Nothing exciting, just fixing lunch. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
HIGHFEELING Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 Really not bad the last video; and i've to do my best compliments for your courage for all your outings!! Do all your friend know your passion? ... Have you ever tried the SKYHIGH of highest hell brand? They seems really nice. Stay heeled and smile to life!
Guest Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 I do love all your videos thighbootguy, you look so natural in thighboots, simply great!
Thighbootguy Posted October 18, 2006 Author Posted October 18, 2006 I spent another fine afternoon at the Art museum. I was wearing jeans, knit shirt , and black leather thigh boots with 5" stiletto heels. The trip was uneventful. I walked in, got a stool and headed for the galleries. The guards greeted me warmly and no one else said a word. After the museum, I stopped at the thrift emporium and got little to no reaction at all. A nice uneventful outing in thigh boots. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Thighbootguy Posted October 18, 2006 Author Posted October 18, 2006 I‘ve added another Thighbootguy video. Nothing fancy, just doing some yardwork in black leather pull on thighboots with 4” stiletto heels. These boots are not as comfortable as the 5” pair but I just got them back from the cobbler and I wanted to wear them for a while.

Thighboots2 Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 Way to go - two jobs in one. Cutting and airating the lawn. TB2 Are you confusing me with someone who gives a damn?
Texboots Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 Great job in the boots, but I had a question. You had to stop a few times to pull up the tops of your thigh boots. I noticed that you did that in another of your videos, one of the shopping ones I believe. With the frequency of your boot wearing, is that a typical problem? Any solution?
Guest Posted October 19, 2006 Posted October 19, 2006 I remember doing that years ago when I had these Italian-made black thigh boots ( back then flat heels on those though) all the time back in the early 90s! (I bought them @ nordstroms on sale as I recall)
Thighbootguy Posted October 19, 2006 Author Posted October 19, 2006 Thighboots2 - Demoniaplatforms - I normally mow the lawn wearing thighboots with flat heels, which are a little more practical and a lot easier. I wore the 4" heels just for the video and, as I mentioned, I had just gotten them back from the cobbler and wanted to wear them. Texboots - The pair of pull on boots I was wearing tend to slide down my leg a lot. I have sewn a seam up the back of the shaft to tighten them, and that helped, but they still slide down my leg. Pulling my boots up in the shopping video was just for the camera:wavey: . That pair are Tony crotch boots and I stitched the top of the boots so they are very tight. I find that pull on boots, because they have to have a loose shaft, tend to slide down my leg when I’m walking. Wearing them over jeans helps a lot. Boots with an ankle zipper or side zipper stay in place, especially when worn over jeans. Thanks for the comments. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Thighbootguy Posted October 20, 2006 Author Posted October 20, 2006 I went to a nature preserve in the area today. The site has a parking lot, a couple of picnic tables and several trails. I went with the idea of taking one of the trails in boots. The weather was cool and it had just rained heavily the night before. The trails were gravel, covered with wet leaves with a good bit of mud here and there. This was not the palace for 5" stiletto heels (I’ve never understood the wet and messy fantasy) so I switched into a pair of flat heeled thigh boots. I also wore black suede leather shorts and a short denim jacket. I didn’t meet anyone on the trail (except 3 deer) which is probably a good thing since I really didn’t know what to expect Thigh boots turned out to be a good idea since there was a lot of wet plants growing on and by the trail and all I have to do is to look at some of them and I break out in a rash. This turned out to be an very enjoyable non-adventure. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Thighbootguy Posted October 21, 2006 Author Posted October 21, 2006 The sun came out today and I went back to the nature preserve I visited yesterday. It was still a bit muddy but it was beautiful with the sun cutting through the trees. I wore my flat heeled thigh boots and they now need a good cleaning. I walked about a mile on the muddy trail and just enjoyed the whole thing. I would have gone farther but the mud was getting deeper and, as I said, I don’t enjoy the mud and messy genera. After I got back to the car I pulled on my black boots with 5" stiletto heels and headed back to civilization. I stopped at a Goodwill (thrift store) and the place was packed (50% off sale). I went in a d shopped for a while. One lady stopped me and said, "Those are gorgeous boots". "Thank you, there a lot of fun". A few minutes later another said, "I love your boots". I thanked her for the complement. Not everybody liked them however. Most people just glanced and kept going but a few ladies gave me a look that as my grandmother used to say, "that look would cool soup". I just gave them a grin back. Another nice boot outting. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Dawn HH Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 As was mentioned---heeled boots may be right for yard videos, but flat heeled boots was the right choice for muddy trails. Sounds like you had a great time. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
Guest Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 I have a pair of flat heel thigh boots I had bought (some years ago) from Leather from Jamin Leather, including: Leather jackets, coats, pants, motorcycle leather chaps, vests, lingerie, & fashion leather (JAMMIN LEATHER) that I'd use for this kind of dirt trail walking activity- NEVER any of my high heel boots, just is not practical to my thinking!
Dawn HH Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 I also have bought items from Jamin Leather. They seem to be good to deal with. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
