Let's Talk About Stevie's Shoes

[strandinthewind]

Throughout the years, Stevie has worn many different shoes.

White Album - in a video I have, she is wearing platform sandals (its kind of hard to tell) and bell bottom jeans. Later in this tour, she get the Rhiannon garb with perhaps red platform boots a la the 76 Midnight Special video.

Rumors - more Rhiannon red and perhaps black boots.

Tusk - long off white or pink dresses and cream colored platform boots.

Bella Donna - can you say off white satin leg warmers!!!!!! over white platform boots. High heel shoes in SDMHA video.

Mirage - light colored platform boots a la Bella Donna.

Wild Heart - I did not see this concert. But, she wore high heel shoes in the videos.

Rock a Little - she wore sort of cowboy boots in the era and I think she is in regular high heel shoes in the Red Rocks video

TITN - black platform boots in the video - and I LOVE the opera length gloves!!!!!

TOSOTM - Platform Boots

Timespace - I did not see this tour.

BTM - platform boots and very short skirts on stage.

Street Angel - platform boots black

The Boston and Florida charity "comeback" concerts - I did not see them.

The Dance - Camel colored platform boots

Enchanted - She changed boots in the shows didn't she?

Y2K concerts - platform boots, then she broke her toe and started wearing the infamous Reeboks!

TISL - Reeboks

SYW - started with the black platform boots but now wears the Reeboks and occasionally the black platform boots make an appearance. Note: in Dallas, the heel looked much lower when she wore them for a little while.

This is based on my memory. Does anyone know any different? If so, please post.

I did notice at Anaheim, she had her boots on to start with. During "Come", she went off-stage and put her Reebok platforms on. She wore them for the duration but during the encores, came back out in the boots again.

While I noticed the same change at LA, I cant confirm wether or not she changed back into her boots again.

I saw and met her at a private show in 2000, Im wondering now what she wore then. I think Reeboks but Ill double check via my photos.

Great thread idea!

Its a chiffonhead thread!!!!!!!!!!! I am sure many will question why we are again discussing La Nicks and her shoes. In answer to them I quote Maryilyn Monroe - "I often find the best answer to most questions is 'What the Hell'"

[WednesdaysChild]

Shoes are wonderful! I own many pairs so I would love to read any and all discussions about Stevie's shoes!

[DownOnRodeo]

lol I just find this thread/topic so funny. So here's my best contribution... I need some new cross-trainers! lol

Maybe I can get some of those Stevie Reeboks?

[wondergirl9847]

Well, my fave brand of tennis shoe is Adidas!! I'd KILL to see a pic of Lindsey wearing Adidas back in the day!! LOL Wonder if he ever did?

As for those Reeboks....BLECK!!! LOL I mean, if they feel better on her feet, fine, but they are ugly as homemade soap and with her grandness, shouldn't she have gotten someone to make her some nice looking Platform tennis shoes?! EGADS!!

I'm not at home in this thread. I hardly notice shoes. Gldstwmn had to point out the reeblechs and boots in Dallas, and I doubt I noticed them in Philly. (Then again, I was in the last row.) Stevie could wear Chuck Taylors with knee-high nylons or Doc Martens with pom-pom socks and I still might not notice.
I follow Gilda Radner's mantra: I base my fashion sense on what doesn't itch.

Oh, we know why you didn't notice shoes...you were too busy noticing other areas in between squints to see anything below the knee Yea, I was way too into the show to notice what anyone was wearing although I did notice that Lindsey was unfortunately clothed

Personally, I want to see her in whatever is comfortable for her and I think her reeboks are cute. The woman is gorgeous and looks super sexy in whatever she wears so she's able to rock the platforms AND the reeblechs (LOL...i dunno whether it was you or gldstwmn that came up with that but I like it). I love shoes. I have lots of shoes. Too many. If you met me at the DC show, chances are I was limping in pain at the end of the concert. I decided to wear some strappy high numbers in order to make myself a bit taller to see over heads in front of me. We walked the two blocks to the venue and duh me, I forgot I had to walk back too. After jamming for the entire concert and not sitting down, I can tell you my dogs were barking. I can't imagine being on stage and having to twirl, kick, spin, etc. in those things. Sure, now it'd be cool but give me 30 some years of doing it and I'd be like, eh, yea, not so much anymore..lol. I do really like the shoes she was wearing in the making of video that she wears with those black leather pants which I LOVE. Stevie, you rock!

Strand, we're "chiffonheads" AND "shippers?!?" If that ain't a deadly combo, I dunno what is

Sorry, can't take credit for that one! Stevie wore the boots for the whole show I think in Columbus and wore the boots part of the time for the end of the show in Dallas. She must be wearing her custom made 'Boks now because they didn't look like anything I had seen in the stores. They look...orthopedic.

[strandinthewind]

I have to say the Reeboks look like a black version of those not sop sassy orthopaedic shoes nurse's used to wear and perhaps still do. Perhaps we can get La Nick's one of those silly hat thingees nurse's used to wear to complete the look!!!!

In many ways, I think if the boots hurt, she should try those sexy RAL Red Rocks video boots and/or shoes!!!!

[GardenStateGirlie]

Hmmm...ya know, there's always the Big Love KEDS I guess after the Hold Me video, she was tired of being on the sand in platforms

[Sarah]

She wore KEDS in that video?!!!! I never noticed! Damn, i'll have to hook up the vcr and look for that. Sheebus. Is there a picture floating around anywhere?

Holy Keds. I can't believe it.

I can still see her owning a pair of pink, fluffy, bunny slippers that squeak when she walks. I can see her pups chasing them around. *squeak* *squeak* *squeak*

I actually liked the sun dress...it's what I would imagine her to wear if she was to actually go on the beach and sit and relax or whatever...
