Men Who Wear Women's Flats

Dedriu, Good point!

katiem2, It has been claimed that men's clothes tend to be better made than women's. It's interesting that that hasn't inspired publicized lines of men's flats given the fact that designers and manufacturers must be aware of the number of men who wear them today.

Wooooooooow Bri, 5 years, I am so very glad you did and now you are my go to pal for the dl on shoes. Thanks

Tom, Thanks, happy to see your page...

I just posted it to the correct page. Posted to the wrong timeline before. All good now, have a look.

I wear flats all the time. My wife bought my first pair for me since I wanted to try them. Flip flops don't cut it since the toes are exposed. Flats are where it at for me. I have a Facebook page called Men wearing ballet flats. Please post some pictures and thoughts.

Mike: Thanks for the post. I think as long as your wife doesn't mind start wearing them in public. Don't know what area you are from but I know in our area I usually don't get too many comments good or bad. Once in a while you get the usual stares or giggles or what ever but I have that those occasion have dwindled over the years and it is a pleasure every time that I wear them out. Most people won't even notice. I wear them to the store just about every where. I am retired now but when I worked the last year or so I would wear them to work on occasion. I agree with you I would much rather see guys wearing flats than flip flops or sandals. Take care and break out those flats.

Rob, nice to read your post.my hat is off to you, if I wore one....lol. I do wear a cap sometimes.sounds like I would like your style. I like low cut shoes my self. I have some P Heaven flats I wear all the time at home. I just love them. My wife doesn't care for toe cleavage,but I still wear them, she knows I feel very comfortable ,and enjoy them. I've been wearing real ballet slippers about forty years ,and have always been a real shoe lover. That's the first thing I notice about someone is what kind of shoes are they are wearing. I admire you for wearing your shoes in public, wish I had that much confidence . The day is coming tho that I'm going to do just that. I own a lot of shoes. Probably more than most women. I would love to see guys wearing flats, I mean you see them wearing sandles, flip flops, and those rubber clog like shoes, come on get the flats out guys. I love the look and feel of nice leather flats, l mean come on loafers just arnt the same. Shoes for guys are usually big and clunky. I think that is one thing that all the guys who wear flats like about women's shoes is that they are light and comfortable,not big and clunky.am I right.any way I really enjoy talking about shoes, and heating other people's thoughts and opinions . Keep wearing your shoes and enjoying them.

I too have loved flats since I was a kid and have been wearing them for probably close to 40 years or so. I love comfort of them. I have a high instep and haven't been a able to find a men's shoe that is really comfortable. I also like the ability to be able to match colors to what I am wearing, for example red shirt red flats, yellow shirt yellow flats. I am a colors guy and do not own any black or white flats only colors. I am also a toe cleavage guy and like lots of toe cleavage. I usually wind up having to cut the vamps down somewhat to mike liking so that I get the toe cleavage that I want. It is hard to find very low cut ballet flats. I am also a fiddler and love to fiddle with my flats constantly. Used to drive me nuts when I was kid watching the girls fiddle with their flats. Since I learned that flats were originally a men's shoe I am even more encouraged to wear them. I probably have 25 to 30 pairs. I don't have the budget to afford the higher end flats like the Tori birch, but I have found nice flats a reasonable price a Payless as well as on E-bay. I wear them probably 90% of the time, only when my wife insists that I wear my regular shoes do I wear them. I am working toward that 100% time. Katie: I am curious does your husband wear flats and if not would you support him if he did even help him to buy them. Thanks

I have been looking at flats for a long time and I finally plucked up the courage to order a pair and I am so happy I did they are so comfy and easy to wear I think flats are perfect for men to wear and why not what ever you feel comfortable in you should just wear what you like I am so glad I did
