Bubba136 Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 Hi Ft. Worth!!!! I happen to love T-straps, too. Although I haven't worn a pair of "men's" shoes in several years, I - like you - don't wear my T-strap mary jane pumps, with 4" stiletto heels, in public either. I have been know to drive while wearing them, however. Welcome to the Forum. It's always nice to see another male heel wearer amongst us. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
Dawn HH Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 Love T-straps:-) Since you like that style of shoe you have picked a very appropriate name to post under. Welcome to the Forum. I'm into boots and my wife says the same thing that your wife tells you...NO MORE! But I still manage to get a new pair now and again. She just ordered me 2 new pairs and I'm awaiting delivery on them now. Welcome here and have fun posting. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
Dr. Shoe Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 Wives and heels eh? Mine is exactly the same, it's not normal, it's stupid, we haven't the space.... It goes on! and I still buy about a pair a week on average! Graduate footwear designer able to advise and assist on modification and shoe making projects.
Dougal Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 Hello T-Straps, Nice to meet you!!! Why do we have to conform with fashion??? Boots are the way forward
Lee Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 Welcome T-Straps, Glad you found the forum and I know you will enjoy it. Our profiles sound simular in age and the wife's comments. :-) Except my favorite HH shoes is the classic pump! Welcome to the forum. Lee
HeelD Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 Hello T-Straps. Welcome. You're not alone in the "too many" shoes category. I'm already running out of space to put them. But shoes are great!! Heel-D - Freestyling since 2005
t-strap lover Posted September 12, 2005 Author Posted September 12, 2005 I want to thank everyone for the great replies and support. t-straps are my favorite style.
docs41 Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 Welcome t-straps, you have lots of company here. I fall into the "too many shoes" category too, but can we REALLY have too many???? If the shoe fits-buy it!!!!!!
Dawn HH Posted September 18, 2005 Posted September 18, 2005 There can NEVER be such a thing as too any shoes...too many boots. So many boots...so little time!!! I must try them all. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
shrimper Posted September 18, 2005 Posted September 18, 2005 Hey t-straps, you sound just like me, 58 been wearing forever only at home, etc. Welcome to the place where everybody doesn't know your name but we know what you like and its OK.
Bubba136 Posted September 18, 2005 Posted September 18, 2005 To many shoes! aWay to many pairs of women's shoes. I quit counting at 100 pairs. Closet is full. If I kept every pair my wife bought home for me, we'd be living in the garage. Problem is, that her taste in styles is completely different than mine and 90% of them are returned. But, is still is great to have a wife that is interested and I get to try on all those shoes before they go back. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
Dawn HH Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 Bubba136:-) It sounds like I may fair out a bit better when Mickey wants to buy me a pair of shoes or boots. She always asks me if I would like them before she buys them for me. Then, the only time they would be returned would be to exchange for a different size. I don't have nearly as many pairs as you do, so storing them is O.K. at the moment. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
Bubba136 Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 Don't know who's better off, Dawn. At least I get to try them on before I make up my mind to keep or not to keep. Besides, my wife and both girls have black belts in shopping. They buy, bring home and return a lot of things because, "they look different when they get them home." Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
Dawn HH Posted September 20, 2005 Posted September 20, 2005 Your right there, Bubba. Sometimes things do look a lot different after you get them home. That's why everybody has a return policy. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!

bluetango Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 I'm new, 58 yr young guy. Recently liberated (divorced), I'm wearing heels at home all the time and have ventured out and about in some of my more conservative boots. I'll post some pictures as soon as I can find a site to upload them to. I tried Snapfish but that doesn't seem to work. Steve Minneapolis, MN Bluetango So many shoes and only two feet.
Dawn HH Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 Bluetango:-) Welcome to the board. Awaiting your pics when you can get them set up for viewing. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
bluetango Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Here's a boot I got from Overstock.Com last spring. Comfortable and sharp looking. Yay!! I did it! I posted a picture. Bluetango So many shoes and only two feet.
Dawn HH Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 BlueTango:-) Yes you did. You posted a pic. Now can you tell me step by step from the time that you took the pic with a digital camera to the pic that I saw on your post so that I may try it? That is a great pair of boots and has the right style of heel for some great street-heeling. Congrats on both counts. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
bluetango Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 Yes you did. You posted a pic. Now can you tell me step by step from the time that you took the pic with a digital camera to the pic that I saw on your post so that I may try it? Dawn HH Hi there Dawn I have started a new thread with picture posting instructions. Try it out. Send me a private message if there are problems. I'll try to help. And then I can edit the instructions to cover the issue. Steve/Bluetango Bluetango So many shoes and only two feet.
Dawn HH Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 Bluetango:-) I'll be looking for your new thread on pic taking instructions. Thanks. Maybe before I PM you, you should know that I do not use a computer to post on. I have a MSN-2 TV web-TV set-up. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
bluetango Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 Dawn HH Posting pictures from a web TV poses an interesting challenge. But not an impossible situation. You may have to visit an internet cafe so you can up-load your pictures. Steve/Bluetango Walking a mile in another man's heels isn't bad if they are nice heels. Bluetango So many shoes and only two feet.
Dawn HH Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 Bluetango:-) I may take you up on your PM offer once I get into this pic taking thing. Maybe you can help me out then with the web-tv. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
