jeremy1986 1,314 Posted October 10 I know some of you are fans of metal heels, and came across these at asos.com not clear to me if they are actual metal heels, or metal looking... but they have up to size 42/9 UK which should cover many of you :-) https://www.asos.com/asos-design/asos-design-nation-metal-heel-barely-there-heeled-sandals-in-black/prd/12198149?clr=black-patent&colourWayId=16421041&SearchQuery=metal heel let them know I sent you 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Puffer 145 Posted October 11 (edited) Tautology reigns! They are 'metal-heeled shoes ' (or, more accurately, sandals)! Or just 'metal heels'. Goes along with 'PIN number', where the 'N' means 'number'. Nice style though! Edited October 11 by Puffer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mlroseplant 858 Posted October 12 I am usually with you guys on things like this, but in this case, I'm going to rise to Jeremy's defense (defence??) and argue that we often refer to high heeled footwear as simply "heels." In the informal setting of this forum, suddenly the title makes perfect sense--much more so than an ATM machine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jkrenzer 553 Posted October 12 (edited) RPM's, double plural. There are so many more. Beer is my all time favorite. How many beers have you had? I like to reply 1 beer, since I drank beer just happens I may have had more than 1 bottle. Edited October 12 by Jkrenzer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They aren’t too bad to be fair, but more awkward than my stiletto pumps with a standard heel the same height but surprisingly sturdy, tread lightly though 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
