johnieheel Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 That is quite interesting Gary. Sort of turns things around huh. Now why would they be labeled as womens boots if they are mens? Somebody aint paying attention. real men wear heels
Dr. Shoe Posted December 15, 2007 Posted December 15, 2007 I think that the seller was only putting the woman's size for comparison. Graduate footwear designer able to advise and assist on modification and shoe making projects.

Bubba136 Posted December 16, 2007 Posted December 16, 2007 What ever is this world coming to? Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
r1g0r Posted December 16, 2007 Posted December 16, 2007 well i bid on them, and got sniped at the last minute by somebody with 10 times my rating! happy heeling, whoever you are! society has decided that men will be confined to certain items of clothing, and certain modes of presentation. until we rebel PERSONALLY against this, we are diminished!
