You'll never have to pack that awkward pair of purse flats or brave it barefoot ever again.
Canadian-born fashion designer Tanya Heath has revamped the shoe game, with an invention that offers you the hot look of a pair of heels along with the comfort of flats.
Heath has created a collection of high-end footwear that offers customized adjustable heels. Hailing from Ottawa, Canada's capital, the innovation and technology teacher spent 15 years and three pregnancies walking in high heels before she came up with her dream shoe concept.
After thinking about the concept for nearly 10 years, she pitched it to a group of professionals. But, she was quickly shot down, kicked out of the meeting and told that the concept was technically unachievable.
Today, Heath has set up shops selling Tanya Heath Paris shoes. Each pair goes for somewhere around $370.
Heath stresses that her shoes aren't cheap-looking, cheesy comfort items, but high-quality kicks that sell alongside high-fashion items. They're already selling in Printemps Lyon, a luxury French department store, and apparently have the "same kind of client" that wears Jimmy Choo.
Don't believe me? Check out her
website for yourself. But be careful, before you know it, you might just be ordering yourself a pair of pretty expensive high (or low) heels.
