That heel height is very restful. OK the lug sole is thick too. I have a pair of these, somewhere. Also men's cowboy boots and moto boots often have this 1.5" heel. So I see quite a bit of male heel wearing out here in the rugged West. I think a small heel is healthy and men should wear it more often. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/history-of-men-and-heels#post-830387 Sun, 27 Jan 2013 18:24:47 +0000 judy 830387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Enjoyed reading that, thanks for sharing it here! So interesting how things that we think have always been this way actually come and go and why. Gives it a context. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/history-of-men-and-heels#post-829481 Sat, 26 Jan 2013 13:57:31 +0000 krishnidoux 829481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks!

My current sensibilities do not want to see men in heels, but you never know!</p> <p>I guess I am secretly hoping they fall of fashion for women as well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/history-of-men-and-heels#post-829441 Sat, 26 Jan 2013 11:57:01 +0000 Inge 829441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Saving this to read over a cup of tea later this afternoon, thanks Anna. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/history-of-men-and-heels#post-828867 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 22:20:27 +0000 rae 828867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very interesting read! Although I have to say I hope the existence of this article does not foretell a resurgence in mens' heels. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/history-of-men-and-heels#post-828855 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 22:11:23 +0000 annagybe 828855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really interesting. I know about Louis XIV, but didn't know the Persian connection.</p> <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-21151350" rel="nofollow">http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-21151350</a> </p>
