Cute shoes on a bike...

***envymi*** · 07-03-2006, 04:38 PM

OK, so here's my dilemma...with the exception of my workout shoes, all my shoes are 4 inches or higher designer stilletos...and my new man likes to go on his motorcycle...I've gone on it with my heels, but I need to find some that are a bit more practical to be on a motorcycle with and still look cute

Any suggestions???

Maybe shoes that doesn't have the risk of getting off your feet? I don't know really why not wear your high heels when riding the moto with him *after all , he's the one who's gonna be driving , isn't it?* . The stilettos wouldn't be a good choice, but the other ones i don't see a problem

Skecher's or Steve Madden makes a great tennis shoe. I'm not one for bikes, but Steve Madden also makes some gorgeous boots withe more of a chunky or platform heel (many different styles).

There are reasons you dont wear stilletos on a motor cycle. There is the heat that radiates from the bike, the whole bugs flying at you issue, and the safety issue. If , god forbid, you were to wipe out, proper footwear is a good defense against roadrash.

As far as finding cute footwear, I dont really know what works in the summer. 4 ince heels can be a problem though....i had a pair f 3 inch heel boots, and the heel melted to the muffler...that shit does NOT come off, hahahhah...Good luck!

Hi envyimi...I have never been on a motorcycle. ok. I lie. It was once around the block on the back of my ex's friends' Harley. Do you like Boots? I love Boots. Not Boots with heels. Flat Boots. And not chunky clunky Boots, but ones that grip and outline the forms of your legs. Kinda like Horse riding boots only tighter. I don't know. I just don't like Tennis Shoes, Sport shoes, or anything like that. When you're alone working out, ok. Or Hiking. But if you don't like boots...

How soon do you need these? Can you check online?

Kawasaki???

If it's a Kawasaki, it's probably a speed bike and they have a whole different attire going. My BF has a Harley (which is really cool) and here's some cool ladies Harley boots... http://www.shoebuy.com/sb/s.jsp/r_ss...1807-622.84950

and no it's not a speed bike...my guy is a pretty hefty fella, so it's a pretty hefty bike

I would love to find some good boots without heels, unfortunately I've been looking for months and haven't found diddly

I have a pair of the Brooklyn HD shoes that Angie posted a link to. I like them they're short and chunky just like me.

I'm now curious about what type of custom ride your man has. It could be a K & C, a Kennedy, or a Kendall. Sorry I like bikes!

Maybe you should check out some of the shops that cater to bikers and see if they have anything that floats your boat, that is if you haven't already done this.

Just be careful with heels....I had a pair that melted to the bumper. We still cant get rid of the marks on the chrome.
