balletboot Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 After the "show us your girliest heels" thread I thought we should see the other side of the spectrum. So let's all show off our most masculine heels here! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heelguypa Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 @balletboot I will try and find a pair that I like, but myself I am prefer girlie shoes, since I was the one that started that thread you can really tell. But in the spirit of the board I will try and find a pair that fits the criteria and I like. Get the ball rolling @balletboot post a few of your choices like I did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balletboot Posted September 5, 2018 Author Share Posted September 5, 2018 I'm thinking these will be my next purchase. I found them at a Nordstrom rack nearby and I think will look great under my normal jean's for a more masculine look or with my skinny jean's for the more freestyle approach 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzfreestyler Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 oh very nice boots. I love the tassle details!! would also be neat with a simple tweed short shift dress in earthy tones - like the mod dresses of the 70s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shyheels Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 (edited) I've always worn boots - typically hiking boots - and have almost never worn shoes over than for running or cycling. And as a boot wearer I wished there were more styles open to me, and envied the wide choice of heights, styles etc available to women. THat's how I got into this - and here. Heels were actually not that big a deal for me. What I wanted was a pair of classy knee or otk boots and in my size that is not that easy to find. Happily I now have several, but with low heels - would that count? As to masculine heels I have a pair of Abbey ankle boots with 2.8 inch cuban heels from the now defunct Shoes of Prey. I like them very much and see them as a sportier, jazzier, more daring take on my usual hiking boot.

heelguypa Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 (edited) Ok, after some googling and searching I found some heels that I like that would satisfy (a little bit) the masculine criteria (I would prefer it without platform). I don't particularly like chunky heels, stilettos all the way for me, and some wedges but closed round toe without platform are almost non-existant specially in 4" to 5"heights. I will keep looking for more "masculine" I like. I also found this company that makes high heels for men, not my style didn't find anything I liked but some of you might. http://shopsyro.com/shop/ Edited September 5, 2018 by heelguypa Missing note 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jkrenzer Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 If unattractive means masculine you have it in spades with these. Just me but I never got the hidden heel sneaker thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shyheels Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 (edited) Me neither. I simply don't understand the appeal at all. I'd as soon wear the boxes they came in. Each to their own of course, but I do wonder why "masculine" should always be associated with blocky, chunky, thick, heavy or baggy.

CHRISPAP Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 My masculine heels (between 2.5 to 3 inch) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heelguypa Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 exactly my point, as I said these might be the most masculine I could wear, not a fan, however, those sneakers seem kinda cool. For my it is mostly stilletos and as girlie as possible. I just posted some of my choices if I had to have masculine looking heels. Just to follow the spirit of the thread. @jeremy1986 Sorry, since it was stated that it was like my thread where I said heels you have or want to have I posted images from the internet not ones I had. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balletboot Posted September 7, 2018 Author Share Posted September 7, 2018 I personally don't have any heels that are very masculine. I have a few pairs of stilettos 4-5 inch and a pair of 6 inch wedges. But no low heeled shoes or chunky heels. I'm just not attracted to them. I've been trying to find different ways to wear heels more regularly. I was kinda hoping I would get some ideas from this thread when I made it. I like where this thread is headed so far and I'm curious to see where it leads! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkrenzer Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 All of my heels are masculine because I wear them and don't attempt to pretend I'm trying to be fem. Stilettos, slightly fury legs, a beard and no otherwise feminine attire. To be honest, the ladies like it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAT Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 I’m still waiting to use that line,,,,, “no they are my shoes”. No one ever gives me the opportunity.

I always get “love your shoes” ,”love your boots”, “ love your heels “, “ love your outfit” I used the line “no they are my shoes” last month. We were coming off the beach, I was carrying mule SM mules and she was carrying her running shoes. The woman in the couple in front of us asked my friend about the shoes I was carrying. And I said, "they're my shoes." Edited September 8, 2018 by Cali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puffer Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 I don't own either of these pairs but both have a distinctly 'masculine' look to my eye. The first ('Timberland' style) are obviously based on a man's rugged workboot but made feminine with the stiletto heel and sharp toe. A stimulating combination imho! The second are a newish introduction by Topshop (the 'March' boot, 4" heel) and I admired them in-store yesterday and felt they would easily pass muster for public wearing. Alas, not available above Eu42. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
