Still having problems with the camera. I used to be upload the photos via windows media player and edit the photos I wanted to keep but now the photos are going straight to file. Means more work to sort out the photos. These are the current heels I bought.

To put things in perspective, can you please tell us:   

  • What is your foot size?   
  • What is the highest heel you are comfortable in?   
  • Do you wear heels outside, in male mode or otherwise?

Hello Puffer!

Yes, I can.

Shoe size 40

3 inch is the most 'comfortable' for me (stiletto) but I'm trying 5 inch, which is extremely tough, but the ultimate for me. Have you seen the photo's of my boots?

No, I do not wear them outside, in the open. But I do practise quite a lot at quiet places.

Theres ebay, and there is ebay stores - ie more to the point is which ebay sellers do you find the best deals (including shipping), range, and a good delivery time?

Morning!

I got the point and I know the difference.

Since I buy a specific high quality vintage style they're hard to find in the ebay shops in the usa. Mainly I buy them from people.

There's 1 guy running an Ebay shop in France, that has good vintage. I have to look up his name.

Thanks!   Yes, I saw your photos but wasn't sure of heel height - and in your modest (size 40) size, the height can look greater.    I envy anyone who can wear an Eu40 - I am usually Eu45!

It's way easier to find boots in a size 40, for sure!

But i look for specific vintage made between 1950-late 80's and not much woman had feet size 40 back than; mostly smallerike 36, 37, 38.

So still.. not easy for me, but I can't complain at all : )

Have you heard of Italianheels?

Very nice quality, also custom mafe if you like (and can afford)

I have, has a matter of fact. I have a pair of stiletto boots from them - their Tina style, a classic knee boot in chocolate brown. I am not really that much into heels, as a rule, but like flat knee and OTK boots, but I did want to try a pair of stilettos and bought myself the Tina's as an adventure. I like them very much, although I am not a fan of pointed toes and would much prefer if they were round or almond shaped. But that's by the by. The important thing was to try stilettos and I really enjoyed it, and war them often in my home office.

Wow..amazing!

I know the Tina boots; very nice ones. I have the Chionia in red. Lovely leather. I do agree, they 're a bit too pointy, but other than that.. great quality for a good price.

You are a lucky guy!

I might have very nice noots for you in stock (I collect boots) but not sure if you wear 3 to 4 inch stiletto's??

Why Thank You for the thought Sir.

It is on my wish list to have some knee high boots with a stiletto heel. However I have small, but broad feet - what sort of toe do they have? Colours? Leather?

Did you try 1 size bigger than yours?

Does that work?

I have to admitt; most boots that I have are vintage, and they're quite small.

Did you check on Ebay?

I'm curious!

I had a look on fleabay - yes found some. But stiletto boots are on the wish list - if I see some 'love those ones' in my size at a good price, then maybe. but for the moment I'm working up the ladder so to speak.
(Had a walk round the city today in my Taos booties - 2 1/2 inch heel and just plain jeans - didn't attract any undue attention and getting some practice in a noticeable (to look at and to wear) heel in a busy CBD mall - Sydney - was good).

I think my next acquisition might be along these lines;

Strolling up Pitt Street were we? :-)  I wouldn't think ankle boots and 2.5 inch heels paired with jeans would attract any notice at all.  

Nope. No-one batted an eye. (I think I got noticed more earlier in Newtown sitting getting a mani-pedi).

I used to live in Newtown, ages ago, back in the early 80s, when it was a gritty, grotty student ghetto. Wished I'd had the foresight to have picked up one of those terrace houses that were going for a song back then...
