Black Suede Cuban Heel Boots

 There aren't many people who would consider a high-heeled shoe to be something designed specifically for men. However, when it comes to something like Cuban heeled boots, this fashion accessory has been created specifically with men in mind. 

Cuban heeled boots began to grow in popularity around the 1970s. In the 1970s these types of boots were being worn by all sorts of celebrities and famous people including people in disco clubs, rock legends and more. These boots were great for dancing in and have their own amazing style that was all of their own. David Beaulieu was perhaps one of the biggest driving forces in increasing the popularity of Cuban heeled boots for men. But he really popularized the look of these heeled boots, with tight trousers or skinny jeans. Throughout the 1970s we can see these Cuban high-heeled boots being worn in a variety of photo shoots and images from the time. The boots ranged from plain black to extremely elaborate, embezzled embroidered pieces that were each original in their own way. 

Today we see a wide array of Cuban heeled boots for men starting to come back. As vintage clothing continues to sell in record numbers many people are trying to revitalize the look of these heeled boots and bring them back into fashion once again. With the popularity of skinny jeans there is no finer accessory for men that a pair of Cuban heeled boots. These boots really maximize height and can increase the length of a man's legs. They look great with tight jeans and they are the perfect fashion accessory forgetting that vintage look that so many people seem to crave. 

Wearing the boots can take a bit of adjustment especially if you have never worn a shoe with a heel before. Probably the most comparable type of shoe for these Cuban heeled boots is something of a cowboy boot. If you can get used to wearing cowboy boots or have worn them before, a Cuban heeled shoe is a great transition. 

There are lots of great designers who are continuing to produce Cuban heeled shoes. The famous designer Jimmy Choo has produced a number of fantastic high heels in men's boots and has reported on wearing them often because of their comfort and elegance. Major designers such as Christian Dior are also producing new Cuban heels for men once again. It really seems as though this fashion trend will only continue to rise.
