Squished toes, bruised heels and overall foot numbness are just some of the issues high heel-wearing people face on a daily basis, which, according to new start-up app True Gault can all be avoided through finding the perfect pair of shoes.
The new high heel pairing service aims to ensure anyone can find their perfect shoe in order to avoid discomfort. The app asks users to scan their feet, and will then design a custom pair of shoes aimed at maximizing comfort, without compromising style. Accessible to any iPhone owner, the app allows users to select preferred colors, fabrics and styles, so that the foot-scanning software can do the rest. The result is a custom-made pair of heels that mold perfectly to the unique shape of your foot, proving that beauty doesn't have to involve pain.
