i had my first outing in high heels the other day, and after plenty of advice, i choose to wear nylons with them even though i had also shaved my legs, because many said barefoot for my first time would cause blisters. I would like to eventually go without nylons and just go with the shaved leg look, but how much more expirience in heels do i need before im ready to do this?

You could just wear your heels around the house with out nylons and see if get blisters on you feet. You done the hard part by going out already.

I don't cross dress, but I do wear panty hose (black or blue) or tights underneath my slacks. I do shave my legs as to not snag my panty hose or tights. I have worn my high heels barefooted before, but I did start to get blisters. So I mainly wear panty hose, tights, or even the shearest men's socks with my high heels.

not had blisters from ordinary goin out, but might do if i was walkin all nite, viz oxfors st shopping, also tights/ stockings r better if ure buying heels that time...

i dont know maybe because ive only done it once, but i cant imagine going out with out completly dressing like a girl, putting the outfit together seems like half the fun, and if im going to go to all that trouble to shave my legs, i feel like i shouldnt always cover them up with nylons.

As my screen name says I don't go without nylons of some kind. They are more than just a cover as they can give subtle color to the legs, even out skin tone or even give your legs just a little shine if you get the right ones. They also ease the damage on your shoes as your heels can get blisters your shoes can get worn. I am sure the girls would have more to say but they don't seem to visit this corner of the site very often.
To each his/her own but I for one feel the image is much more complete weather you are male, female or somewhere inbetween.

I guess it would depend on the outfit. Though I don't crossdress often (maybe once or twice a year), I am friends with many crossdressers. To me nylons provide a very finished look and can bring an ensemble to life. Also, nylons are (usually) a must if you are in need of a shave. Nylons (or knee highs) are vital if you are breaking in new shoes. I have gone bare legged when it has been very cold, but usually go for the extra insulation nylons or tights provide.

However, I would like to see more men go bare legged is wearing open toe shoes, strappy sandals or the like. (of course a pedicure is always nice, even without color) My thought is if your shoes don't give you blisters, strongly consider showing off those legs!

doin barefoot a lot now, wont do it in brand new shoes - not that is a recipe for blisters, will let u know if i have probs....

I've got one pair of boots that will give me blisters every time. Luckily they're knee-highs and I wear ankle length skirts, so no bare skin to show... I cheat and wear socks!

Other than that, I'll wear nylons if it's cool or I don't want people to look too hard at what I'm wearing (black opaques and black closed-toe shoes) or go barefoot if it's as hot as today. It ain't fashion, in general, it's comfort!

I really won't go barefoot in pumps or boots. Too hot and sweaty, plus blisters or raw spots will happen quickly. I always go with nylons, or at least thin nylon dress socks. Sandals though almost always bare.
