The Clicking Sound of Metal Tipped Stiletto Heels

There is something deeply satisfying and, frankly, erotic about the sound of metal-tipped heels striking the ground. This may go some way to explaining the success of my recent video offerings. (It was most gratifying to find Town Walk in Thin Stiletto Heels and Tight Skirt reached the first page of YouTube Top Favourites for this month). Apart of course from the visually appealing aspect of the ultra-pointed toes and needle-thin stiletto heels of my black patent RoSa high-heel court shoes, I know that many people have enjoyed the sound of my metal-tipped stilettos clickety-clicking along.


Now, it's important to stress that RoSa shoes are not at the present time supplied with metal tips, but fitted as standard with protective plastic tips. This means that they present less of a threat to softer, indoor floorings.

Could we not offer the option of metal tips for those of you who are happy to accept the risk to floors? Well, we probably would if we could find any that fit our slender stiletto heels. Unfortunately, in trying to source a metal tip which can be fitted to our shoes we have, so far at least, drawn a blank. It appears that none exist. In order for me to make that desired tick tick sound, I took my shoes to my shoe-mender who fitted them with the larger tips that are available, and expertly ground them down to the size of our heels.


It seems that some of you, however, have not been so lucky in finding a shoe-mender who is able to offer this service.
Which is why we are continuing to search for a supply of metal tips which fit our ultra-thin stiletto heels. We will of course let you all know if and when we succeed. Hopefully it will happen, and you won't have to wait too long.
