I want to get them off the internet but I have never tried any of htem on and I don't know what size will fit. I wear a sizesix in my six in heels for work. What do you all suggest

Re:thigh high boots
yeah, I used to wear them all the time basically wore them to death. You get really sweaty tho if you wear them alot and they'll probably start to stink after awhile. My first pair was white, then black now I have a red pair. I don't wear them very often though. Mine are size 8 I wear size 7 in my dancer shoes. I don't remember what brand mine are their quality varies. If you wear them all the time they will eventually "break down" ie: the heel will become separated from the boot or the toe part of the platform will become separated. The zipper might break. You can take them to a shoe repair though and get them fixed.
I have found in general guys would rather see more leg than boots. Have fun in them.

Re:thigh high boots
I have worn thighboots off and on for years, and they always get rave reviews.
A couple of notes:
1) You want to wear socks OVER thigh-high stockings. The boots will rub your knees as you dance and the nylons protect you from painful chaffing. (I pick thigh-highs with lace at the top and sometimes let it show to maintain some femeninity; other times, I go total Dom.)
2) Sapphire was right about foot odor. I found that the socks/stockings did wonders, because you wash them after each shift. If you need a bit more, a basic foot spray before you put them on will do the trick. You can even spray it directly in the boots.
3) NEVER EVER buy a pair that just fits. Unlike open-toed shoes, your toes will cram into the front if they are 1/2 a size too small. I made this mistake with my first pair (I really wanted them and they only had them on the small side - I thought that I would be fine). If you are a 1/2 size, buy up, not down.
To me, the best thing about boots is how sexy I feel in them. Go for it, revel in them, and let that come accross to everyone in the room - You'll be a show stopper!

Re:thigh high boots
Yeah, you definitely want them a little bigger. I have a friend who wears them. She wears stockings with them and then puts athletic socks over those (helps absorb the sweat/fill the boot).
I would suggest that you go to a store that sells the type of boot brand that you want and try them on for size...then order them off the internet. I know what size I wear in just about every brand of stripper shoe out there, so it's not a problem ordering online.
Have fun in your new boots!!

Re:thigh high boots
Okay, so question for all of you who wear boots...
is it just me or do you ladies sweat a TON in these things? I do and I find it gross. I love the way boots look on me but I get grossed out by how much my legs sweat in them... what do you guys do to prevent it or keep it from happening as much?

Re:thigh high boots
My one friend rubs talcum powder on her legs several times a night...I am assuming it helps with the sweatiness...

Re:thigh high boots
i cant wear boots at one of the clubs i work at right now. But i wore them a lot before, and always hated the "smell". BUT LOVED HOW THEY LOOK.
Unfortunately, a lot of men don't like boots!! They even went as far to ask me if i had bad feet one time because i wore them often!!! I since ditched the boots but miss them for the pole work i use to do that i cant presently do at the club because there are NO FREAKING poles.

Re:thigh high boots
For sweat and smell:
the socks+stockings are the answer.
Its not bare skin, which makes a difference, and they absorb some of the sweat. You wash them after each shift, so it doesn't matter/make the boots themselves stink. You will want a foot spray for after you take then off - just baby wipe your feet/legs and spray. If it is more sweat than you are comfortable with while wearing them, given the stockings, use spray before you put them on too.

Re:thigh high boots
i wear my black thigh high boots often, mostly because they spare my knees when doing floor-work. also, they go wonderfully with the goth-girl image :). some guys prefer shoes, but others give me many compliments on the boots.
do what works for you

Re:thigh high boots
I wear a 7 in open toe/heel shoes, but wear an 8 in boots. I really like the Demonia (Pleaser) " Revenge " style boots.
They are longer in the toe area. I could probably wear a 7 in them, but i like to wear them with spenco arch supports and thick socks. I also like to wear Hue boot liners. I buy my boots at snaz75 or dressed2play. I found the hue boot liners at Nordstrom.
