tightlevisandhhboots Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 I just got these custom made boots made. They are a 4 1/8 inch heel and the base of the heel is roughly 2 1/8 by 2 inch. They are very comfortable, and very unique. I would appreciate any comments, and I can take some more close-ups if any one is interested. It took the maker in Mexico about 2 months to make, and all from just e-mails and jpgs of parts of other boots. http://www.hhplace.org/album.php?albumid=142&pictureid=2574 http://www.hhplace.org/album.php?albumid=142&pictureid=2578 http://www.hhplace.org/album.php?albumid=142&pictureid=2577 http://www.hhplace.org/album.php?albumid=142&pictureid=2579 http://www.hhplace.org/album.php?albumid=142&pictureid=2573 http://www.hhplace.org/album.php?albumid=142&pictureid=2567 http://www.hhplace.org/album.php?albumid=142&pictureid=2568 Thanks Tightlevisandhhboots
Iamme Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 I fell in love with this pair of heels the moment I saw them. I should get them in the mail somewhere in the upcoming next 2-3 weeks! http://www.endless.com/Funtasma-Pleaser-Womens-Gangster-15-Platform/dp/B002LCEN26 I really love the unique look of those heels. Then again, I've always loved the 'alternate' look. Normal heels won't cut if for me- I need to have unique and special ones. Even if that means they'll draw attention if I'm ever going to wear them in public.
Dawn HH Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 LovesHiHeels:-) Very sexy pair of slingbacks. Are you going to wear them out in public? TightlevysandHHBoots:-) Very nice pair of cowboy boots. They should go well with the right jeans for streetheeling. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!

Tosca Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Hi all, I bought these from Pricesless last Friday. Already worn them for work (with a new skirt from M&S) last Sunday. Really comfortable, UK11, almost 4 inch heel but realy easy to walk in and wear. And ONLY £20.00! http://www.pricelessshoes.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product1_11051_-1_115104_11051 Pity about this icy weather. I wanted to wear them today, for the last day at work, and then hit the pub this afternoon, but it's just too risky on these pavements in heels. Best wishes for the holidays to all Love Tosca Still rainin' still dreamin'

Tosca Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Hi, I'm going to get into town early tomorrow, avoid the bound-to-be-awful crowds, and buy these: http://www.pricelessshoes.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product1_11051_-1_127071_11051 I really like the square too (can't bear pointy toes), and they come in a round toe version too: http://www.pricelessshoes.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product1_11051_-1_119557_11051 Crazy prices, too good to miss. Looks like, from the reviews, these have been appealing to guys (anyone here?) like me/us, and I can't wait to wear them to work in the New Year. Speaking of square toe platform heels, I been eyeing these from Next for a while, but they only go up to 43, which even in their wide-fit I find too small. Such a shame, I love the colours! How I wish Next would raise their sizes to 44.

Puffer Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Hi all, I bought these from Pricesless last Friday. Already worn them for work (with a new skirt from M&S) last Sunday. Really comfortable, UK11, almost 4 inch heel but realy easy to walk in and wear. And ONLY £20.00! http://www.pricelessshoes.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product1_11051_-1_115104_11051 Interesting, Tosca. I saw these advertised and doubted the claimed heel height of 12cm – your clarification is therefore helpful. What size do you normally wear, please? Do your 11s run true to size in length and width? These boots are also available up to size 11 from Priceless and its sister companies: http://www.bigshoeboutique.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=14051&catalogId=14052&productId=114119&langId=-1 The reviews on BSB include this interesting one from a bloke with size 12 feet: My first boots and they fit perfectly "Bought these for a fancy dress do, not fully expecting them to fit (am 6' tall and big, with size 12 feet) but they fit perfectly, can even get my jeans inside them. Still looking for an excuse to wear them out, but the missus seems happy for me to wear them about the house, although they take a bit of getting used to!" Anyone interested in these or other products from Priceless/Barratts/BSB is recommended to look at all the sites as price/availability does seem to vary between them, as do any discounts (online shopping only) or free delivery options. These codes appear to be current: 1. Barratts: The code WINTERDISCB entitles you to 10% off your order including reduced items (and also free delivery, I think). Valid until 31st January 2010. Free Delivery on web orders over £50, Voucher Code DELAWB Expires on: 31/12/2013 2. BSB: 10% discount with code WINTERDISCBSB until 31.1.10 Free Delivery on orders over £40, Voucher Code DELAWS or MOV4B Expires on: 31/12/2013 3. Priceless: 10% discount with code WINTERDISCP until 31.1.10 Free Delivery on Orders Over £30, Voucher Code DELAWP or FREEDLP Expires on: 31/12/2013 Happy shopping and season’s greetings to all!
tightlevisandhhboots Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Darn Nice Pair of Boots You Got There. Does the maker have a web site that you can refer us to? See this Thread about this boot maker on e-bay. http://www.hhplace.org/guys/14888-new_high_heel_cowboy_boot_maker.html I really like my latest pair, though the black patent came out a true patent, vice the more of a high glose leather like the toe, so If I were to do it again, ia would ask for "shiney leather" vice "patent". But he did them basically just like I aske hime to, other than the heel coming out just a little shorter than I had hoped. TLAHHB

Most go up to 40/41. Great shoes though!
ShockQueen Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 I just bought a pair of the Skye platform ankle boots in brown from Avenue.com for $25 on sale - couldn't pass 'em up, and they'll look great with my jeans! SCORE! SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
heelguy Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 i haven't bought them yet, but i fell in love with the hottest heels ive seen in a while, they were rather tall too.. electric blue in colour, small open toe, 1/2cm platform with i'd say atleast a 6inch heel, cut straight and flat towards the inner of the shoe and moulded to the shape of the curve of the rear of the shoe towards the back (if that makes ANY sense at all :S) only thing is they were $140 :/ but i will get them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i must!!!!!!!
k6ps Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 I just got these custom made boots made. They are a 4 1/8 inch heel and the base of the heel is roughly 2 1/8 by 2 inch. They are very comfortable, and very unique. I would appreciate any comments, and I can take some more close-ups if any one is interested. It took the maker in Mexico about 2 months to make, and all from just e-mails and jpgs of parts of other boots. Although i'm not a fan of cowboy style, i like these a lot. You've got one of the very unique very masculine looking pair of footwear with high heels -- which is what i also keep searching for. Have lots of fun on these Happy Heeling k6ps
jwhite44 Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 I just bought a pair of the Skye platform ankle boots in brown from Avenue.com for $25 on sale - couldn't pass 'em up, and they'll look great with my jeans! SCORE! Lucky you! I tried about 8 stores in my area trying to find a pair in my size (13), but no luck. A few weeks too late I'm afraid. I'm sure the 30%, then 40% off everything sales didn't help to keep them in stock. I've never worn a pair of high boots (have a few pair of ankle boots), and figure between that and the 4" heel (most other Avenue shoes seem to top out at 3"), it was a perfect pair to try. Maybe next year! (guessing they're clearing out the winter shoes & boots). ps - I think they're actually the "Star Platform Boot"
LovesHiHeels Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 Nice slingbacks Where are you planning to wear them ? If I do wear them out it be at WHM 2010. The heel is slightly to high for me to walk to far out in public. Otherwise I be wearing them at home

Soon as I get some finances in order, I'm placing an order.. Never frown because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
Dawn HH Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 I liked the round toe platforms better than the squared off ones. Would prefer a much lower platform, maybe a half inch to a three quarter inch one. Nice looking shoe and in my favorite black patent color. It seems that you all; know just how to celebrate Christmas and gift yourselves accordingly in the process. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!

SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
roniheels Posted December 26, 2009 Posted December 26, 2009 That's a nice high heeled bootie at a very reasonable price.

If you go to avenue.com, they are still there, and the brown ones are even still in size 13W on sale for $25.00! Skye Platform Boot Get 'em while you can! I think we were looking at two different shoes. Yours were ankle high, the one's I were interested were thigh-high. I'd post a link, but it looks like they (along with about 1/4 of all Avenue boots) have been pulled from their website. I guess they're clearing out the winter boots; after all, Spring is only 3 months away!
muddypaws Posted December 26, 2009 Posted December 26, 2009 Just bought these on ebay. Check out the seller. They have some very nice heels for sell. Just type in emmdf99 on the search on Ebay. :smile:like everyone says, very nice! Classy, stylish without being OTT. Enjoy. Muddypaws
LovesHiHeels Posted December 26, 2009 Posted December 26, 2009 After a pair of boots from Next but didn,t have any in my size. I found these in Payless instead.
stefan Posted December 26, 2009 Posted December 26, 2009 After a pair of boots from Next but didn,t have any in my size. I found these in Payless instead. Nice boots. Good luck and have fun in your new boots. Best regards, Stefan
HHLover Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 I picked up these Payless Oxford Booties in the fall, but just got around to taking some pics over Christmas during my first major heel outing.
roniheels Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 I picked up these Payless Oxford Booties in the fall, but just got around to taking some pics over Christmas during my first major heel outing. I have a pair just like these. I responded in your other post about these high heels.
larkofam Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 Just today I bought a pair of Penny Loafer Pumps (something I have always wanted) at Walmart for $15, and also a pair of bootcut jeans. See pic.
Bubba136 Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 Great shoes. Should work well wearing them in public. Go for it. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
larkofam Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 yeah, I just took the garbage out in them (I live in an apartment complex with some 50 other people...) the thing about Bootcut jeans is they sorta facilitate heeling for guys in my opinion.
