RobertB Posted December 19, 2004 Posted December 19, 2004 Boot season is here. I've been looking in Payless, Famous Footwear and Shoe Dept and finding some really nice boots for cheap. I bought these today for $20 at Shoe Dept. The heel measures 2.5" at the back. It's not really a "high heel" but is great for "normal" wear. The heel is rubber and makes very little noise. I wore them to the supermarket and found them very comfortable. I think these are going to be my normal wear shoes. It's a great boot for the price. Too bad they only go up to size 11. -Robert B.
Jimnj3 Posted December 19, 2004 Posted December 19, 2004 Yes it is!! Don't pass up Walmart, I found a nice pair of kneeboots last week in size 12M and they fit me like a glove. 4" block heel with a rubber sole so they are quiet if you want to be silent. I wore them to work last week and the girls I work with thought they looked fine. Jim
loveheel Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 A great pair, Robert !. But watch it. Before you know it you will be so comfortable that you will be wearing 4" stiletto heels !
RobertB Posted December 20, 2004 Author Posted December 20, 2004 A great pair, Robert !. But watch it. Before you know it you will be so comfortable that you will be wearing 4" stiletto heels ! I do wear 4" heels. I was at the mall in these last night: Those heels make a lot of noise which I'm still not comfortable with in public. Quiet heels aren't a problem. - Robert

Dawn HH Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 Fantastic pair of heeled boots. Enjoy wearing them. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
bootlover1935 Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 Shoe Carnival is also a good place to get shoes and boots.
azraelle Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 I bought these (dark brown leather upper) day before yesterday at my local PayLess for $9.00 (on sale!); they're selling on the net for $32.95 Not as high a heel as I generally like, but having worn them for a couple of days and "broken them in" (you can do that with real leather), I find that they are the most balanced boots I own--the heel is in EXACTLY the right spot for walking naturally--no wobble at all, even though the heel tip measures 1" x 1/2". And, I couldn't argue with the price!

Dawn HH Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 Azraelle:-) That's a very nice pair of boots and it's good to know that they are ultra stable for you. Enjoy wearing them often. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!

Blade heels and pointed toes aren't my style but, the price was tempting.
Bubba136 Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 It's really boot season here. We've had a spell of colder than usual weather leading into the final week before Christmas and it's brought out the boots that have been hidden away since our last cold spell last winter. I am very surprised at the number of women I've seen wearing them. All kinds of boots. All styles of boots. Chunky heels, blade heels, stiletto heels. And, most noteworthy, most with heels at least 4" high. Great sport to sit in the mall and "contemplate" while awaiting my wife to pick out that perfect gift for one of her older sisters. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
Dawn HH Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 Bubba136:-) I have been doing the same thing at the Malls lately just as you have. BOOT WATCHING!!! I have been in my glory while doing this and have seen a good portion of boots on gals that would fill my street-heeling requirements and would look good in my boot collection, and I am just a bit envious that they are on other legs and feet and not mine. Oh well! Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
