Wouldn't it be great to have a symbol for male foot lovers?

[MaleFeetParty]

it'be really cool to identify foot lovers from all over the world. Any idea on how the symbol should look like?

A footprint?

Perhaps there should be a Male to Male foot fetish flag? M2MFF pride!

Footprint on a flag?

It's a start. In fact, why not develop and market your own rainbow foot bumper sticker? I can't seem to find any others using Google.

That's great! Thanks.

Boots, that's my design. I was just coming on here to ask you guys about the stuff I've been designing, and I see you have kind of beat me to it. Anyway, it gives me a place to start.

That one is my idea of a gay foot lovers symbol. You can see it on several items with some variations, according to the item, here:
http://www.zazzle.com/footpride*/fp1

It looks good to me. I'm happy with it, but I'm wondering if it might be better to have left off the text. Maybe some people would be more comfortable with something that was more subtle, recognizable to M4M foot lovers but more of a secret code to others.

Anyway, I'm counting on you FootBuddies to tell me what you think is good and not good. I have several more designs in the works, but you can see a few designs I've made here:
http://www.footpride.com

I'm anxious to get people's reactions, and as I said, I am hoping to hear from some FootBuddies here what you think. Are these items too serious, too silly, too bright, too explicit, etc. Can you see yourself wearing a shirt or button or whatever like this? or if not you, what about someone else?

I do have a number of other designs in the works, some funny, some a bit more raunchy, but I'm wondering if I'm going down the wrong path or the right path. I haven't seen any other M4M foot fetish items on the market, with one exception they are all M4F items (or they are at least aimed at female feet).

The only exception is the former logo of FootFriends, now reverted to its original designer, which is available here:

This one is more subtle. He says in the description "Show your love for: • Feet • Foot care, health, massage, reflexology • Heart-Healthy Exercise: walking, hiking, running • Dance • Barefooting • Footwear of quality, health, comfort • Walking in God's footsteps and Love • Footfetish & Playing Footsie" so it's more ambiguous than the design I made, and perhaps therefore not suitable for clearly symbolizing M4M foot fetish.

I'm wondering if people are really willing to admit to having a foot fetish in public. It seems even more socially looked down on than being gay. (Somecanuck, you gave me an idea about making something more flag-like. I might do that too.)

I actually just posted about your items in my blog. I think it's a great idea! But I was also going to mention that it would be good to have the option of items without the text, and just the graphic. That's a more "daily life" wearable option that doesn't require as much explanation to your non-fetish friends and family.

I also posted that I love this shirt (outlined in the center) from the now seemingly defunct Hang Ten surfwear company. I even asked them if I could purchase it, but they said they don't make it anymore. I love this design, and if they're not using it anymore, maybe you could?

It's still their logo http://www.hangten.com/Hangten.html so I doubt I'd get away with duplicating it without a risk of getting sued. Kohl's is still actively promoting the brand: http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/ourbrands/hangten.jsp though I think they would find that shirt you like to be out of style in the current market.

I notice that they've dropped the symbol from the logo on the Kohl's site and on the products themselves, but I still think they wouldn't like someone duplicating it. On the other hand, maybe I could do something similar, but not similar enough to infringe.

Almost as soon as I posted those shirts I wished I'd put in a non-text option, but I'll do an alternate tonight and they should be "live" sometime tomorrow.
