Wedges for Men: Yea or Nay?

 Wedges for Men: Yea or Nay?

Okay, we’re just asking the question. But before we do, just know that we’re always up for some new shoe options for men. I mean, how many pairs of oxfords, loafers, running shoes, and flip flops can one guy own? This item, however, from fashionista.com, brings something that even we’re not ready for to our attention — wedges for men (here, on the Fendi runway). Now, this isn’t the first time someone has attempted to put guys in heels, but we’re hoping it’s the last. But let’s put the question to you — wedges for men, are they a yea or a nay?

I’m all about fashion-forward, but biggest NAY ever. For tall guys, it would look ridiculous. For short guys, nothing is worse than being short AND being accused of compensating for it. Just dress for your height; don’t try to change it.

Nay, Nay, Nay, Nay, Nay……

Unless they are on Cowboy boots – no heels on Men’s shoes!

this is pure silliness. this is probably the anti-manshion (if it were to be embodied in one red leather mess of a package).

Well, The style of the shoe isn’t bad, but a wedge – give me a break. I don’t like them on women,let alone men.

Now a similar height Cuban heel would probably work very well – see those by archieeyebrows.co.uk

YSL’s Johnny boot sells very well for them. Perhaps Fendi should take note.

def. Nay, too effeminate for me.

Finally!!

the barrier is breaking. wedges should have been out for men years ago, men’s shoes are so boring. now if we can get people to look at them as shoes and not a sign of a man’s sexuality it would be great.
