balacau Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 I really hope so! While there isn't anything wrong with stilleto heel boots in my humble opinion, I really prefer the look of chunky heels better, even sculpted ones for that matter. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280066156483&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:UK:1 I found these Bronx boots on eBay in my size, I don't intend to bid on them though! They look great in my view, but I don't see why they should be called "pirate" boots... What about the rest of the UK, or anywhere else for that matter? Have chunky heels started turning up in more places or is this just an isolated case? I learned the truth a long time ago, being afraid of the dark is what keeps most of us alive...
Duo Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Yep. I'm the same as you balacau. I prefer chunky heel boots too. Though stiletto boots do look great. I see what you mean by those boots being called "Pirate". They do have that look to them. As for chuncky heels popping up anywhere else. I can tell you that down under, here in Sydney. I don't see many pairs of them. Even last winter I didn't see all that many. I work at a place where everyone dresses nicely for the evening, so I can usually scope out whats in, around the town and whats not. I don't know bout the rest of Aust but this might just be an isolated case. It would be nice to see a small comeback for the Chuncky Heels though. ..Duo..
balacau Posted January 2, 2007 Author Posted January 2, 2007 Thanks for the reply its nice to know whats going on elsewhere in the world. I found these Faith "Reeve" stilleto calf boots on ebay this morning, they are one of the few stilleto styles I do like......and they are my size. Hmmmmmm... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200064463238&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:UK:1 I learned the truth a long time ago, being afraid of the dark is what keeps most of us alive...
chris100575 Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 I'm quite happy for chunky heels to come back... just as long as I can still get stilettos! Chris
dr1819 Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Chunky, narrow, wedge - so long as they're ergonomically designed and properly mated to a sound shank that doesn't allow them to wobble all over the place, I'm up for anything, provided it's high.

jmc Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 Although I prefer the term "block" over "chunky", I will welcome their return! In fact I'll have to celebrate -- by buying a few pair! Have a happy time!
jmc Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 i like stillettos. Don't we all? Stilettos are amazing but they do take a tremendous amount of self-confidence to wear well -- especially for guys but also for women. For me, personally, blocks or wedges work better. Just a personal choice. Have a happy time!
JeffB Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 Don't we all? Stilettos are amazing but they do take a tremendous amount of self-confidence to wear well -- especially for guys but also for women. For me, personally, blocks or wedges work better. Just a personal choice. I agree. It does require a tremendous amount of self-confidence, or just plain balls for a man to wear stilettos, and wear them well in public. Not everyone, regardless of the gender can do that. At the risk of tooting my own horn, I like to think I'm one of those confident guys who can, and have done so for quite some time now. However, I don't begrudge anyone who prefers block or chunky heels, everyone has their choice, what makes them feel good, and that's the important thing. I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Dawn HH Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 I have no choice right now. I have to stick with the chunky, block heels. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
tinaspade Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 I have to say I much prefer stilettos, but at least the new "block" heeled boots look a lot better this season than some previous efforts
johnieheel Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 As long as they're at least 3" or higher, I'm for any heel. real men wear heels
