Rep Power: 17 ![]() | Bob, congrats :) The first step is always the hardest one, but obviously the most important! I'm quite surprised the car came back for a second look... most people don't bother. However, if it was me, I'd wanna take a second look! Keep it up :) SH

Rep Power: 15 ![]() | Ha ha. If a group of you went out in some really tall spike-heeled boots, any potential detractors would be in awe of your dangerous weaponry. I think that's the only way I could do it. I'm sorry to say that I'm too much of a coward to go it alone. I feel that I am brave and strong enough to handle a physical confrontation, but I'm not sure how to deal with contemptuous looks or verbal abuse.

Rep Power: 18 ![]() | I haven't tried this as yet with high heels, but then I don't avail myself of the opportunity of really arousing people by wearing spikes! But I have found it works well for other potentially embarassing or confrontational subjects, and have read of at least one heel wearer on this board trying it successfully, and it is this: When you see someone staring, double-taking, or about to comment, PRE-EMPT them. Walk up to them and say aomething like "I see you're interested in my choice of shoes. You must be dying to know what they feel like, right? Well they are the most comfortable shoes/boots I've ever owned. [and if it's a woman in lower heels, and you really want to fluster her, you might add] But then, you already knew that didn't you?!" This really takes the wind out of most people. Reminds me of a time when I was (officially) visiting a rather large Army Post, Ft Hood, TX, to be exact, when my assigned Post was Ft. Polk, LA. I was a visiting 2nd Lieutenant, on foot, and actually looking for a barber shop, when I was accosted by an 8-stripe Seargent-Major obviously itching for a confrontation with a "shavetail" officer. He said "Lt your mustache is too long." Somewhat taken aback, I replied "you're right, Seargent-Major, and so is my hair. Iim from Ft. Polk for this exercise, and I was looking for a barber shop to get it taken care of. Would you happen to know where one is within walking distance?" His eyes bulged out, his jaw dropped, he turned somewhat red, pointed out where one was, saluted, and finally walked off, thoroughly abashed, not at all satisfied, and not a damn thing he could do about it!. :lol:

Rep Power: 0 ![]() | Hi all, I just come back from a midnight promenade in Frankfurt on nearly 6'' (14.5 cm) stiletto boots. I was simple eager to become acquainted with the feeling of walking outdoors on extreme high and thin stilettos. I must confess that I was very happy to encounter such few people All the elegance of my last sunday walk on 4.5'' heels faded completely away. The pavement gave me the feeling of a steeplechase. I'm afraid that I have reached my limit I'd like to know your experience. Who of you dared to walk on 6'' stilettos in the street and is still convinced of his public performance? I have decided to become a little bit more modest again high heeled greetings micha |

Rep Power: 8 ![]() | Micha, Well, ocasionally I will wear my 6 in. pumps on pavement outside. The longest I have ever walked in them for a single period was about 5 minutes. I barely made it back to the car! Once I was in I had to pull them off as my calves were seriously cramping and my toes were throbbing. It was wonderful :D |

Rep Power: 8 ![]() | I have spent as much as 6 hours in public in 5" stillettos, but I also crossdress, and have not had any adverse reactions or comments. :) |

Rep Power: 0 ![]() | Hi again, only a short answer. You are confirming me: Either you did wear lower heels or only for 5 minutes like me :D Last sunday I dared to walk on my pointed 12 cm (~4.5'') stiletto boots in public several kilometers without any problems. But only 1 hour not 6. It was a very exciting adventure! BTW Some astonished looks, no comments. May be, if the weather will be fine, I will try it tomorrow again. But this time in the brightest daylight micha |

Rep Power: 0 ![]() | Has anyone ever managed to track down where you can get those red boots with the chrome heel and tip in Stellah's posting from 22nd Jan? Looked everywhere I can think of (which is quite a few places) with no joy!!!!! :( Whether I could actually WALK very far in them is another matter, although I did 3 hours in my 5.5" spike heel ankle boots under jeans in Manchester the other weekend... no I'm not very brave, it was an 'adult' event and I doubted anyone would think twice about it.. well a couple of the girls did - the 'I could never wear anything that high' brigade... :lol: A couple of lads got a bit offensive By the way : if anyone gets 'picky' I found 'so how many of your girl friends wear trainers' was a good response ... 'actually I LIKE men in thigh boots' ........ Toyah Wilcox Martin |
