J-Nation Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 You could contact Bananashoes (just up the road in Rotherham) and make an appointment - it's really mail order, but various good reports have said how helpful they are in person. There's not an awful lot of retail shops for 5" heel stuff - the only one that springs to mind is 'Desire' at 619 Attercliffe Road Telephone: 0114 2442626 (no website) They do the usual fetish stuff - latex, leather, pvc etc with a few shoes and boots. There used to be a really classy shop in Eckington, a few miles south of Sheffield, which sold designer name shoes, but I don't know if they're still going (being a 'big-foot', this was off limits for me, anyway :-( ) I hope this helps a bit, Emma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 nhoj62, Take a walk round the city centre too, there's a "Shuh" and nearby "ultimate shoes" or something, both often have high-ish heels, sometimes 5" I'm sure! Also there's a Tk max which has a very random mix but I've bought my GF some 4 1/2" boots from there. Then there's Meadowhall, the out of town shopping centre which has a lot of fashion and designer shops, places like Dune which often have a higher heel. Bob.

The one near "Schuh" has a terrible pun for a name - its called "Outrage Shoes" (=outrageous - geddit?) Emma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba136 Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 Ah yes, emma. That is a terribly "punny" name. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
