Now I’m not much of a heel wearer myself, but I can imagine they get pretty uncomfortable after being in them all day. Footloose, a project being worked on by Marte Den Hollander, is hoping to give those feet of yours a little break, without having to change shoes!

I designed a shoe with a high heel, which can be changed into a shoe with a low heel. No more extra pairs of shoes in your bag, no more trouble driving a car or walking stairs, no more painful feet, no more knee and ankle damage! The character of this shoe is in the heel shape. It has separate tips for both positions. While being used in one position, the other heel tip is kept out of sight in and opening in the sole. The shoe is being transformed with a simple and quick movement: one just pulls the heel downwards to release it, after which it can be folded in or out as preferred. The adjustment of the heel position automatically changes the curvature of the sole to fit the altered shape of the foot. (core77)
