It’s been on the radar lately that more men have been wearing heels. Whether or not they are attached to boots or whether you are working those new Louboutin’s, this trend is fast growing. I personally say “Go for it!” when I see photos of this trend. Sometimes I have to express my pure jealousy for these men who can walk around longer than I can and with much better balance.
It seems that it has even entered the fashion world with editorials in various magazines and even Lenny Kravitz is sporting some of Rick Owen’s famous mens wedge creations. However, this is not the first time men have worn heels. Even as far back as the time of Louis the XIV men wore heels, and even had designers create custom pairs. Designers are constantly using menswear for their female collections so it was just a matter of time before the roles reversed.

No…i kinda draw the line at heels.
although..weir looks great <33
I like the “bigger” heels, but thin heels & stilettos I don’t like much. I’m not a big fan of wedges either.
I’m surprised you didn’t include a photo of your man Andrew Mukamal in his Rick Owens heels!

I don’t like the skinnier heels on men as much as I like the wedges. Although, I must say that Weir looks better in those heels than I do in mine!
Personally… I just think there a step too far.
No pun intended.
