shrimper Posted July 23, 2005 Posted July 23, 2005 The wood platforms with the lucite wedges have been spotted on the feet of such as JLo, Beyonce, etc. They're a curiosity. I just don't consider platforms of any kind to be sexy. One man's opinion.
dr1819 Posted July 24, 2005 Posted July 24, 2005 It bothers me that a beautiful animal like a python is killed to make shoes that only a narcisistic celebrity is likely to wear, and only once. Painter I'm with you. Let's slaughter the cattle and wear their hides on our feet incessantly, as, at the very least, there's a plan to replace them! No offense intended - just putting things into perspective...
Shafted Posted July 24, 2005 Posted July 24, 2005 I don't know about you dr1819, but I'd wear a farm raised snake on my feet any day. As I said in earlier postings there is no ethical difference between utilizing domestic farmed animals and exotic farmed animals. Shafted, the boots that is!

asdf174 Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Those pumps are kind of asian stylish to me. Like I can see someone wearign them with a chinese style dress or something. It's all good. ~Arron.
JeffB Posted August 5, 2005 Author Posted August 5, 2005 Anyone here wanna fiddle with these shoes: Pretty wild to say the least! Opinions, anyone? I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
ShockQueen Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 Anyone here wanna fiddle with these shoes: Pretty wild to say the least! Opinions, anyone? Those I would call "dare shoes" - designed to test a person's nerve during their first outing street-heeling. They get all buckled up and then as they go down the street, it's way more troubling to take them off than to just brave it and find out that........... Gee...it really IS easy to street-heel! SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
Bubba136 Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 Those shoes (pumps) are quite nice by themselves. However, it's the buckles that make them outlandish! Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
Shafted Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 I don't think I'm quite ready to wear those out of the house, but I do like em'. Shafted, the boots that is!

crotchhiboots Posted August 6, 2005 Posted August 6, 2005 I like them too. I like the buckels. Were did you find the pic ? Just curious. 77r90dL lf
tal Posted August 6, 2005 Posted August 6, 2005 Those shoes are absolutely stunning! Why don't we seem them more often in public, worn by women .... damn...!! My username changes every now and then on here. God knows why.
Dawn HH Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 Now those really are quite different, aren't they. You may not even see a lady wear them on the street, much less a guy. They put me in mind of a more of a bedroom type of shoe or a pair that a guy could really have fun with wearing them up and down stairs and around the house. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
JeffB Posted August 7, 2005 Author Posted August 7, 2005 I like them too. I like the buckels. Were did you find the pic ? Just curious. Those boots are on ebay for any brave soul willing to buy 'em and take 'em out on the street! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
JeffB Posted August 7, 2005 Author Posted August 7, 2005 Now, I've seen boots like these before and they never fail to flat out amaze me. For instance, how the hell do you walk in those things? Or is walking not a requiement? Inquiring minds wanna know! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Shafted Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 Wow Jeff, now there's the ultimate bondage boot, complete with locking ankle cuffs. Shafted, the boots that is!

ShockQueen Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I saw a video of someone walking in those that has never had any training, and she was prancing around like a pro! I can't figure out how people manage to maintain their balance while going around in ballets. My hat's off to them though. SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
Ionic Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I've seen a short video clip too. To do it successfully they needed to have that full ankle flexibility to 'go over' as I think ballet dancers call it. ...and have the ankle strength too, which a regular wearer of 4.5" stilettos would probably have sufficient for a short demonstration. Why do the gals seem to have more natural flexibility there, that's always puzzled me? /I /I

Definitely not something to wear out in public! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
JeffB Posted August 7, 2005 Author Posted August 7, 2005 Try these on for size, folks! From Sexy Shoes, five inch heeled boots in black or red with mesh sides! They're supposed to be available around the end of this month and will sell for $69.95. Boots like those beg to be worn with off-black pantyhose and a short skirt to show off one's legs and the mesh! Anyone out there that brave? I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Ionic Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 if anything is giving me vertigo, it's the ones above ~ I think it's caused by the kind of Moiree pattern created by the mesh... /I
JeffB Posted August 9, 2005 Author Posted August 9, 2005 if anything is giving me vertigo, it's the ones above ~ I think it's caused by the kind of Moiree pattern created by the mesh... Yeah, that mesh can have a sort of disorienting effect on the eyes. But that doesn't take away from how gorgeous they are! I've never seen anything quite like those before! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Shafted Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 White hose JeffB, will really make those mesh shafts pop. Shafted, the boots that is!

JeffB Posted August 9, 2005 Author Posted August 9, 2005 White hose JeffB, will really make those mesh shafts pop. Hmm! Upon further review, I agree with you there, Shafted! Off-black wouldn't make the mesh stand out nearly as much as white. Like I said earlier, a skirt would be essential with boots like those! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
ILuvHeels Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Now, I've seen boots like these before and they never fail to flat out amaze me. For instance, how the hell do you walk in those things? Or is walking not a requiement? Inquiring minds wanna know! I'll let you know when I get mine!
Dawn HH Posted August 10, 2005 Posted August 10, 2005 JeffB:-) A pair of 5" heels and mesh shafts? Now, THAT IS different. Maybe someone will buy a pair and let us all know all the details. I don't think that you could get away with a pair of those in the office, but might match your leather skirt to form another picture session. And since they have a 5" heel, they just might be up your alley. What do you think, my friend? Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
crotchhiboots Posted August 10, 2005 Posted August 10, 2005 I'm sopposed to be getting a pair of knee high ballet boots from another member of this board. I can't wait. I will let you know when I get them. 77r90dL lf

I'll definitely take that under advisement! Besides, who says I couldn't wear boots like those away from the office? Thatnks for the suggestion! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
JeffB Posted August 13, 2005 Author Posted August 13, 2005 Words fail me in describing these things which are currently up for bidding on eBay! Seven inch heels! Wow! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Shafted Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 How about hideous, Jeff. If I saw a woman wearing those I'd head for the hills. Shafted, the boots that is!

Dawn HH Posted August 14, 2005 Posted August 14, 2005 JeffB:-) No-no Jeff. Don't even consider bidding on those. They definately are not office wearing material and wearing them while street-heeling sure would be asking for trouble or even a disaster. I get a nose-bleed just looking at them. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
