Rob is already aware of my posting re cuban heeled boots at
A Cuban adventure
In addition to the brands mentioned, quite a few retailers are advertising boots (and a few shoes) with a 'cuban heel' but the heels on many of these are really no higher or tapered than on a normal 'flat' men's shoe. Inspection recommended!
However, Faith has in stock some rather nice zip-sided ankle boots (black, white or pewter) rather similar to those in my avatar but with a very pointed toe and a lower cuban heel (about 1.75"). Very soft leather (although that may result in creasing at the toe etc), easy to get on and off and comfortable; I am very tempted! Go to

Schuh has some cuban heeled boots too; I saw some there by (I think) Jeffrey West at about £110 that were very wearable; heel no more than 2".
