Prince's High Heel Boots
Does anyone have a favorite pair?
These are by far my favorite. [img:$uid]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v291/fangebay/ORG/boots.jpg[/img:$uid]

I love em all but most notably their shape. Prince's boot shape is very unique & instantly recognisable. I miss him wearing them! "If u take this shit seriously, ur a bigger fool than I am" | |

I wonder if it's easy to do the splits in those heels. | |

His days of doing the splitz are over. Can you imagine him doing it when he is 60 or 70?

I seriously can't imagine him doing splits now.
James Brown did it. And he was out of shape. | |

He still wears them. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I think Prince could do one per show. Still looks pretty limber enough. Like TylerHippie said, James Brown did them well into his 50's and 60's. __________________________________________________

James Brown stopped doing splits after age 60. | |

Indeed. I meant 2 say 'I miss him regularly wearing them' but didn't feel it was neccessary 2 correct in an edit. "If u take this shit seriously, ur a bigger fool than I am" | |

Eye remember prince having a pair around batman, they had the bat logo on them they were cool boots.. Dave Is Nuttier Than A Can Of Planters Peanuts...(Ottensen) | |

There's picture of them in a thread called "The Batman Era". | |

Yes, I believe so. Look at how the heel, itself, is angled. It looks as if the shape of the heel would aid in the movement. | |

Why would u think that Prince can't do the splits anymore??? Of course he can still do the splits. Why do people want to age and get old? Time doesn't exist in the higher worlds - if time doesn't exist there, why would people age? Back to topic, Prince can do the splits. Maybe if u r lucky, he will show u. ~honey is b-ing 1 with the 1~ | |

For one, he has hip problems. And two, why would he start doing splits randomly on a Euro Tour? | |

Does anyone remember one of the last times he did a split? My assumption is 1998 or something? I don't see him doing any; during 2000? Haha..But who knows? I am not even sure if his hip problems are as drastic as some make it to be? He still dances pretty good and swift. One thing is for certain, he does wear his heels on occasion. NOT all the time though, he may wear those push-up shoes..lol. OR the Furry boots..All of those things used to distract his height..I guess? lol. I don't know?..Prince is interesting when it comes to his shoes, ALL I know is that; he wears the heels, ever so often in certain dance routines, but he wears to push-up shoes a lot now..
I mean...Wearing heels for 30+ years, has managed to hurt his feet; from what we can see. I am glad he even realizes it and not try to still do what his body can't necessarily handle on the level it did before. It's Button Therapy, Baby! | |

I feel that he can still do the splits...I don't understand why you think any hip issues prevents doing the splits. someone that i know has had a severely fractured pelvis and femur can do splits with both legs- what limitations that one accepts can become reality. I can't imagine Prince accepting limitations. I think that he saves the magic splits for his girlfriend when he is alone with her... For one, he has hip problems. And two, why would he start doing splits randomly on a Euro Tour? ~honey is b-ing 1 with the 1~ | |

How many people have bought heels just because they resembled those? **sheepishly raises hand** | |
