Clicking of heels

[missjoann49]

I had to go out today to run some errands, there is nothing like the sound of clicking heels on the concrete sidewalk and inside the mall while walking along.
I don't know about the rest of you but I just love the sound. I was wearing a pair of ankle booties

[Stephanie47]

Totally agree heels can be a head turner. The noise can be deafening, especially if the mall is not crowded. Nobody to deaden the noise. I like to take evening strolls. I found concrete sidewalks are brutal on heels. In the area I like to walk the street is lined with single family houses. In the cool of the night anyone can hear me walking. I prefer to not attract attention, and, to save my heels. I found a nice comfortable wedge with a two inch rise that has deadening material on the sole. Quiet. Quiet, I like.

If you live in the upstairs apartment with wooden floors the downstairs neighbors may think you have a lot of female friends over. A peril of heels on wooden and tile floors.

Heel clicks are a head turner but I try to tone them down due to the attention I get.

The Sound Can be Fun--- but can draw unwanted attn depending on time and venue. Have several prs that can be loud----but prefer to wear my quieter ones. Toni G..

When I hear the clicking of heels, i always look around for the source. i must admit, it is so fun to hear my own heels sounds, but i don't go out anymore.

[Asew]

For me, I am a quiet reserved person. When going to work or shopping in heels, I am paranoid about the sound of them so I have gotten shorter heeled booties that are quiet that I wear more now.
It is why my wife was initially shocked I would even go out dressed because she didn't think I could handle the attention.

[elizabethjonescd]

I too very much enjoy the sounds of me heels on concrete. The sound is very distinctive

[Georgia K]

Yes that was an unexpected bonus when I got my first pair last month

[Leslie Mary S]

I prefer the sound of hills on a bare wooden floor. I have NEVER heard my own heels. I try to walk toes to the pavement first and barely let the heels touch. It shortens thee stride. When in HS on the track team they issued us running shoes without heels. (I learned later that those are sprinter shoes.) I was a miler those shoes taught us to run on the balls of our feet with little heel contact.

I think I posted this story a few years back. Anyway I needed to pick up some medical papers from my doctors office. I wanted to go somewhere else and wanted to wear fem clothes to it. Anyway I walked into the clinic office which was very full. I'm wearing a silk blouse, women's jeans and boots. As I walked in and left the entry carpet you could hear the heals on my boots throughout. I walked over to the receptionist she asked what I was there for and asked me to sign a paper. As I bent over my blouse which was a loose shirt type fell away from my body and gave her an easy view of my white lace bra. As I stand up she has this smile of I know your secret. I turn and walk out with my heels clicking to my stride.

The heel click thing never did anything for me.

[Martina]

Sometime ago I was taking my wife to a hospital appointment, as we walked from the car park so a woman wearing heels passed us by and her heels where clicking.
My wife looked round at my feet to see what shoes I was wearing and that it was not me making the noise, I said no it's not me clicking, although I would liked it to have been.

To me if the heels click it means your walking wrong or are in a hurry and taking strides that force you to jam those heel tips into the pavement. so doing will wear out that little bit of plastic or rubber quicker. Shoes with real rubber heels should not click.
Ladies check the condition of your heal tips. I had one pair of green Sling backs where the tips and come completely off. I don't know how many hours I had worn those heels without the tips. I think the 3/4" spaces between the boards of my deck took them off. It is hard to wear stiletto heels on that deck, you have to make sure your heels comes down on boards and not gaps.

[Crissy 107]

When I hear the distinctive sound of heels clicking of the floor I look to see and like to check the lady out. Unfortunately most women no longer wear heels.

[deebra]

I probially shouldn't say this BUT when you hear clicking heels there is a very good chance panties and bra are a little higher up regardless who is wearing them.

[Sherrii]

Yes! I love the sound. I always always look to see who is making "that noise" and what they are wearing and their look. As for wearing out heels on rough surfaces well a few years back I was searching on line for replacement heel tips for a couple of pairs of shoes I have with worn out heels and found some. I didn't get to order them before the computer blew up and after getting it fixed or another, (don't remember which) I never got back and ordered them. I still have those shoes waiting for heels. Point is they weren't hard to find at that time. And with a pair of pliers they pull right out and you can insert new ones. Just check measurements when ordering. Sherrii

[Ressie]

More proof that crossdressers go out in public for attention

[Leslie Mary S]

Sherrii I did buy a pack of 50 of assorted sizes. I also bought a pack of 1.5 to 2.o "D" heels just in case. Guess I am a "Cheapper the dozen" type of Person.

[Faith Noel]

I Love the sound of heels clicking. I remember several years ago when I was going to a group meeting, I was wearing boots with a chunky heel and the sound they were making on the tile floor. I know I turn my head when ever it's heard. Hugs Faith

[Sherrii]

Leslie,
That's interesting that you found a package deal, probably a lot less expensive too. Good for you! Sherrii

[Lux]

I still remember the first time as a teenager, stepping out of a car to go into a dance club in Chicago. The sound of my heels clicking on the sidewalk and that memory has always stayed with me after all these years!

[Sherrii]

Lux, Were you "dressing" as a teen? When did you start, how did you handle it as a teen probably living at home? Sherrii

[alwayshave]

Joann, I totally agree. I love the sound.

[Lux]

Sherrii, in high school I started to dress in my room when my family was asleep. Later on, since we lived in a ranch home I could just slide out my window and walk around the block late at night learning to walk in heels. Then it evolved. It’s incredible I didn’t get caught but I would sneak into the basement, get dressed and then sneak out of the house and go driving. My parents often still joke that I would sometimes sleep until 11am-noon on a Saturday morning. Little did they know. :) Back then being high school skinny, I could go to any nightclub and thankfully never got into any real trouble. But I’ll never forget that first time. Please pm me if you have more questions.

Missjoann49 - I love that sound. My ears will zero right in on who is making the noise and my eyes will begin to search. I quickly look at the heels and then see who is wearing them. This past business trip, I made the decision I would wear my 3" thick heel booties on the trip. I loved the sound m booties made as I walked from the parking garage to the terminal to the gate. I had the whole walkway area to myself so no one else was there to enjoy the sound of my heels. I can't wait for my next business trip when I want to do it all over again, except with a pair of 4" booties. It was the longest walking in heels I have ever done in public. And it was great!

[CrossKimmy]

You said it sister. I love the sound of heels especially if they’re mine.

[JoannaCD]

I too am addicted to that sound. It goes back to the 50's and 60's for me when we wore cleats or heel taps on our shoes and boots. This thread caused me to remember and play The Statler Brothers "Do You Remember These?" which has a line about loud heel taps. I haven't seen or heard anyone wearing them on their shoes in years. I don't even know if shoe repair shops even have them. I do enjoy my Long Tall Sally Chelsea boots which have very hard heels which make a great sound especially on wood floors. Maybe I'll see if metal heel taps can be put on if they wear down.

[BrendaPDX]

I love the sound too. I have my share of stiletto heels but usually wear flats to pass.

[Krisi]

I remember in High School it was fashionable for boys to wear "taps" (metal plates) on their shoes. Everybody had them and the noise in the hall was deafening. Then the school outlawed them.


I seldom wear heels and never when out. It's more likely that I will pass in flats.

[Sabrina133]

absolutly - hearing my heels clisk is a turn on for me as well.

[ToniG]

Was just Out a bit in my 2' Blk Pumps for a trip to the dumpsters. Heels sounded Grrrrrrreat on the concrete! Looking fwd to see how they do on the tile floors in the Mall later on. Toni G..

[Patience]

I love the sound of clicking heels, but at the wrong time, they can be deafeningly loud.

[Maria in heels]

It is a wonderful sound isn't it Joann? I love the sound of my heels clicking as I walk in the early mornings. The flower print high heel open toe sandals are a pair that my wife picked out for my cutting last weekend, but I opted to wear something else as I really didn't feel they were right because of their colors. They were supposed to be paired with a light lavender sleeveless jumpsuit an I felt even though they "popped" as my wife said they were just too different for me to be comfortable It is so quiet and I can hear it echoing off of the houses as I walk down the block with my puppy. It snowed the other day and I left my heel imprints in the snow.

Yes Maria it is a great sound

[Karmen]

I love the sound too. But sometimes, while walking outside in the middle of the night, I'm kind of scared of it too, because I announce myself to everyone nearby.
