Fog Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Wimbledon tube station about 1.30 this lunch time. And I must say he looked GOOD. He was a young very androgynous guy, wearing a pair of very nice knee high wedge boots - the sort of thing that SScotty shows. These were teamed with a pair of trousers that just covered them. His entire outfit was black and he was totally at ease. I had a short chat with him, told him about hhplace and urged him to have a look.
HeelD Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Sounds like a great encounter there fog. Pretty much goes to show there are other heel wearing guys out there not just on this forum. Hope he decides to pop buy here - I would like to see his outfit(s). I remember the day after last heel meet in London, kneehighs and heeluis spotted a guy wearing court shoes in Camden. I didn't see him at all typically! Heel-D - Freestyling since 2005
dr1819 Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 Reminds me of walking into a Payless in a major metropolitan area, and encountering not just one, but three other guys, trying on heels. When I asked the manager what percentage of his high heeled customers were men, he replied "oh, about 40% to 50%." I was dumbfounded, but he said that even in rural America, where he'd been a manager before, it was upwards of 20%. Go figure. Lot's of guys in hiding, folks. The trend is way more prevalent than what we see out there on the streets.
on heels Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Out shopping in a large supermarket near Heathrow, my wife and I saw a man in 3inch heeled loafers whilst he was standing in the queue at the check out. This is the only sighting so far. I admit I too was wearing heels (2.5inch) at the time. Of course there must be other places? [including “Erotica” at Olympia, London. (This year on 17 to 19 November 2006) but that's cheating! isn’t it?] May be the fear of ridicule stops some guys from venturing out, so far I’ve had no problems and that includes buying shoes.
Danielinheels Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Spotted a guy trying on size 11s in Payless last week. Dropped a word about this site; hope he joins. Who knows. Be yourself; everyone else is already taken. - Oscar Wilde
HeelD Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 If anyone is wondering who the guy was trying on some stilletto courts and some gorgeous stilletto kneehigh boots in Next in the Arndale in Manchester yesterday...that was me! I also tried on some courts in TK Maxx. Heel-D - Freestyling since 2005
on heels Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 TK Maxx have a limited selection of shoes in my size (8 UK), some of the styles are nice though!
dr1819 Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 I took the opportunity to wander the streets last night wearing my black ankle skirt, hh boots, and my hair a little spiked. I also wore a pair of earrings and just some basic makeup, fake boobs, and that's it. Lots of kids running through the neighborhoods with their parents. I didn't get a single second look! I headed downtown and there were a few costumed characters in the local establishments, including several guys wearing heels. I felt sorry for them - probably the only day of the year they feel they can do that in public! I had a beer then walked home. Again, not a single stare or double-take. There were two girls who sat down beside me and started a conversation, though. When I answered, and it was obvious I was male from a lower voice, their eyes did go wide and they said "nice costume!" One reached out and pinched my "tittie" and said, "wow - are those real?" It was half of a squishy toy my son used to own, and I pinched it and said, "sure feels that way, doesn't it?" I think they were a little freaked out, for they began to look like they couldn't decide whether I was a man or a woman, so I pointed to one of the guys trying to walk up the stairs in heels (he was having a little trouble), and said, "will you look at him? He's all dressed up like a girl!" and laughed a bit. This really confused them and one asked, "What's your name? I'm Carol." I gave her a "Hi, Carol. I'm Denise." At this point they actually appeared to relax. Yeah, they concluded that I was a husky-voiced girl. So, to allay any further mind-benders, I cleared my through a bit and went up two-thirds of an octive and they were even more relaxes. I didn't try any feminine gestures, as many women don't have any feminine gestures anyway, and unless you're really feminine, comes across as fake anyway. Well, back to the threa topic, yes I saw guys in heels last night!
