Practical Footwear For Practical Women
Do you want to look fashionable and stylish, and at the same time to feel comfortable? Footwear designers have been working on this problem for quite a long period of time.
As we have already mentioned in the article about Marte den Hollander, today the fashionable footwear empire can offer you an appropriate variant of quick switching between comfort and style – footwear with a transforming heel. The invention appeared to be a breakthrough and is popular among various designers.

For some women driving a car turns into a real ritual. Some feel uncomfortable driving a car in high heels, so they have to carry an extra pair with them. This problem gave the designers a clue, that there is a need of a compromises variant – both with and without a heel.
A popular brand ?amiLeon Shoes dedicated itself fully to the production of the shoes with transforming heels. The idea of the developers is to make women driving safer and help women feel free at a wheel, without giving up their style and beauty.

No one knows exactly, who was the first to invent the footwear with transforming heels, but one thing is clear – this footwear will definitely be in demand among the auto-drivers and simply practical women.
Two Pairs In A One
All the inventions, for example, the invention of a wheel or of a spaceship, were not done in vain. Great scientists strived to make the lives of people better and easier. The world of fashion also sometimes experiences the times of inventions, though they do not happen very often.
For example, high-heel shoes, designed by a young designer Marte den Hollander as a diploma project, appeared to be such an invention. That fact is, that the designer tried to accomplish an interesting, but difficult task – to combine the advantages of both high and low heels in one pair of shoes.
Such transformation appeared to be possible due to the modifying construction of a heel. One can wear such shoes in two ways – you can either choose high heels, or take the heel off and hide it in a special compartment, and after that the model will turn into a more convenient and casual type of shoes.
What is more, the change in the heel height also influences the sole curve. The sole is produced in the way to adapt to the heel transformations, so it is flexible to changes.
This model by Marte den Hollander seems to be a serious invention in the world of fashion, because after buying a pair of shoes you will actually get two pairs of different purposes. You won’t have to worry about your feet being tired after a long walk, and you won’t have to take an extra pair of shoes with you.
