yozz Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 The other day I ran into some really nice boots. They are not very high but they are super comfortable. http://www.pikolinos.com/imagenes/catalogo/i07/mujer/samoa/9468.jpg The Pikolinos have a rather wide toe box. Their main problem for many people here is that they go only to size 42. But because it is a wide 42, it is probably the equivalent of an italian 43 for many of us. Another advantage: my wife has no problems with me wearing this outside. Another nice one that I picked up earlier is http://www.pikolinos.com/imagenes/catalogo/i07/mujer/san_marino/9448.jpg They belong to the winter collection, which means they are on sale currently. This puts the price a bit below 100 Euros. (regular for full size boots from them is about 150 Euros). The hard part is to find a shop that sells them. They have a whole list of shops, but my experience is that most of those have just one or two models. In the shop where I went they also had some higher heels as in http://www.pikolinos.com/imagenes/catalogo/i07/mujer/illinois/9485.jpg but I didn't buy them because the upper side was way too wide for me (I have rather thin less and the upper circumference for size 40 was almost 40 cm). Many of their shoes are very good for those of us who want to start slowly with street heeling. Y. PS: I didn't buy stock in them. It is just that I am a happy customer. Raise your voice. Put on some heels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 A few days ago I bought these new stiletto boots They look very very cool! Are they comfy to wear? How high is the heel? They're Good. very Good. Very soft elastic leather, made in Italy (someone tells it's a good thing), brand Via Spiga Very confortable, also the 1st time on. I'm satisfied, I find them less female than a pair of pumps or sandals, so I prefer them. Here a picture The heel is 12cm high (a few less than 5 inches, measured as here) on a size EU43 http://www.pikolinos.com/imagenes/catalogo/i07/mujer/illinois/9485.jpg but I didn't buy them because the upper side was way too wide for me (I have I like them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximilian Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Picked up a pair of Guess cowboy boots just the other day... 2 and 1/2" heel.. Very soft and comfortable.. edit: My only gripe is that they are LOUD.. but i'm working on that. Nice boots man. What's wrong with loud ? Since I couldn't purchase these pair of boots due to a size issue, I decided to get another pair I took interest in. I've just placed the order for the most expensive pair of boots I've ever bought. Check them out (these aren't the size I got them in). I can hardly wait to try them on and am really hoping that they will fit according to the measurements. They don't have a very high heel, but I wanted stylish boots that I'll be able to comfortably walk in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pumpedup Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Ok here is my latest purchase. White Jessica Simpson "Polo" pumps. They have little things in the back that are supposed to resemble wings. They are beautiful and sexy, just like all her other pumps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shyguy Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Those Pumps look great pumpedup, thanks for sharing the pictures with us. The "wings" set them apart from the usual pumps we see, a little extra unique. Enjoy them. I recently bought some new heels, they are unfortunately a little tight on the toes for me, so may be sold or traded. Anyone interested, pm me or I will keep them.

shyguy Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 They look nice, shy, what size are they? They are UK 8 or eur 41, most of the time a 41 fits me, and even a 40 from some styles but as we all know they vary a lot. It's mainly the toe box is a weeny bit narrow for me on these though.

ShockQueen Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I have a similar pair in black. They're about worn out. I wear them every where. Never any problems. I can see why! They just came in today, and the heel is way less noisy than most, and from the front, you would never know they weren't regular flat shoes. Yay! Time for a test spin out!

hh4evr1 Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I have just brought a pair similar to these. 4" Courts/pumps. http://www.snaz75.com/pl-vanity-420.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roniheels Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I bought a pair of black patent leather slingbacks with a 5 inch heel and a pair of black kidskin pumps with an open toe and a 5 inch heel. I'm off work Friday, so I'm going to test drive them about the town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majo Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I finally reached the 100 pairs.

roniheels Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I just bought my first pair of thigh high boots, black patent leather with a 5 1/2" stiletto heel. I am wearing them now and they are so comfortable. I won't take them off the rest of the day. And they were on sale (woo hoo)!! I just wanted to share that bit of fun with all of you.

johnieheel Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Just bought some red d'Orsays from www.sexyshoes.com. These seem to run just a tad large (less than 1/4 size if I'm any judge). They are very comfortable and were pretty cheap. Very nice. BTW, buckles go on the outside. I had a pair like that from the same company but they fit to tight so I put them on ebay. They were black. Very nice shoes. I like the red! real men wear heels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewfieGuyInHeels Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I just ordered a new pair of shoes from Transit ( www.transitshoes.com) They're black Mary Janes with a 3+ inch wedge heel. Click the link o see them. My gf is encouraging me to get some other styles than just boots, so I figured these would be nice. http://www.myspringshoes.com/eng/storeSection/redirect.cfm?sectionID=b2c/style/productDetails.cfm&itemID=62959372&&var=d&ckey=CA http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j78/darthraze/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnieheel Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Those are really cute Newfie. I anit crazy about wedges but I don't dislike them either. I think mary jane wedges are great and trying to talk the wife into a pair kinda like that, only patent. Great choice! real men wear heels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

at9 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Got these in brown from the end of Nine West sale. £20. Unfortunately they only go up to US 10W = UK8 in the UK which means they're a bit tight (I'm really UK9) and will need stretching. I think I'll try the isopropyl/water and newspaper method. Quiet and grippy rubber sole, leather upper. Ideal for discreet outdoor wear. They go well with a pair of Gap brown chino style trousers which were £12.99 in their mid-season sale. They seem to have a few left on the rack in more than 1 branch, typically UK3 or UK8:smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba136 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I have a similar pair. While the wedge heels are only 3½", I've worn them out after 2 winters of constant wear out and about all up and down the eastern seaboard.

raymond.nl Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Perhaps a somewhat timid choice for most of you guys, but to me they seem the perfect mix of masc/fem, all day, not-over-the-top heeled boots. It's a 6cm / 2.5" heel. Available in Europe through Otto (brand: Tamaris) Feedback - as always - is highly appreciated! Acceptable for work?
