You know what’s Crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy!™
High Heels for men.
Apparently it’s not just for Tranny’s and glam rockers anymore.
According to the London Times: Something is afoot in men’s fashion — so steady yourselves, because high heels for the heftier sex are making a comeback
Men have long sought to gain a few extra inches, but in the heel?
What’s next? bikini waxing your junk? Nick-naming the boys; Coco and Channel?
The MAN-HEEL, now stupidly called the Meel, is becoming more wildly accepted around the planet. That will come as a major relief to Tom Cruise, the Napoleon of diminutive actors, who wears high heeled NIKES to jack his height from 5’5″ to 5’8″
Talk about top gun standing on his tippy toes to see over the counter.
According to the Times; Diminutive shoe aficionados including Karl Lagerfeld, Prince, Richard Hammond and Nicolas Sarkozy have long championed the discreet Cuban heel.
For you non-fashionistas, a Cuban Heel is a cigar you wear on your foot.
I am as height conscious as the next guy. At a nose bleeding 5’9″, I’ve been known to ask tall girls if the high heels were really necessary.
At California beach parties, I remember scratching sand behind me like a cat burying his poop.
The goal was to create a ridge that I could stand on, a ridge to give me a slight edge, a few inches of height meant a few inches of possibility.
An extra 2 inches could be the difference between taking a girl home from the keg party or standing around with a bunch of boozer-losers.
I’m not saying I plan to buy a pair of high heeled loafers anytime soon, but I do have two pair of cowboy boots.
Outside of Dallas and Nashville, they ain’t exactly fashionable, but the cowgirls like em and if that 2 inches helps make a cowgirl smile, then who the hell am I not to oblige.
And that is crazy.
