Heels aren’t for everyone, especially those nights when you have to walk half a mile to catch a cab after being on your feet for hours. On that particular night, inspiration hit me: collapsible high-heel shoes. I had on flats but my companions’ assortment of wedges, stilettos, and whatever other ways you can pay to put your feet at great, uncomfortable heights, slowed down our travels to a taxi oasis. Anyway, unfortunately my breakthrough idea was a few years late. The collapsible heel has been available for a few years now, though I don’t believe it is readily available in stores.
Where to go:
Collapsible/adjustable height heels can be found at the following site:
CAMiLEON Heels: http://www.camileonheels.com/
You can order directly online or check out the list of stores, by state, that carry the line.
There are also other collapsible heel lines in the works, apparently, but just try searching around to find out about other options for tender-footed, stiletto-loving friends.
