    She’s amazing! With her spanx concept, she kept meeting with male manufacturers and they didn’t understand the concept. They also didn’t think that it would sell. She proved them wrong.

    Not a novel concept, sneaker heels have been around for decades at this point! But this shoe is hideous! Like why, why does it have to look like a sneaker!?! Might as well wear your sneakers with your pant suits, you will still feel 10x better!

      Agreed. Cole Hahn had a collab with Nike. There were others too. I think the difference may be the lack of cramming toes into a point.

      The sneakers take a while to get used to. I'm not crazy about a sneaker HEEL, and the price is not right. Just wear flats.

    Why not just wear sneakers….there’s no reason why women shouldn’t be able to wear regular sneakers with all outfits since heels aren’t good for the foot. There are other countries whose women wear regular sneakers with everything and there’s nothing wrong with that.

    Ridiculous. The price is ridiculous. The look is ridiculous. The idea that women need to wear heels to look more attractive (to who??) is ridiculous. But most ridiculous is that this is women doing this to themselves and each other. 🙄

    This is intriguing to me, as someone who has never worn stilettos in her life, has only one pair of heels that I hardly ever wear, and now wear all barefoot shoes on a daily basis. It’s a shame they’re so expensive, as I would definitely give them a go.

  • @NMV-ej4zd

    Great idea decreasing the pain women feel wearing high heels, but the price point of the shoes is painful for the average woman...surely wildly wealthy Sara doesn't need to sell them for such a high profit

    One Word: FUGLY
    They’re also ridiculously priced.
    With our incoming Trump administration, tariff threats, Americans already starting to be laid off due to the tariff threats, I doubt these will be successful.
    Just my opinion.

      Well, she never said they were good for you. All she did was create a slightly more comfortable high-heeled shoe-that's it. I am sure she knows that high-heeled shoes are not the right choice for your feet in any way. She also knows that many women will insist on wearing them regardless of how much pain they cause them. She worked on at least solving a short-term problem with the high-heeled shoes: making them a little more comfortable. 😊

    They might be ok with casual looks but not for dressy outings, which is when women need heels. I hope they go back to the drawing board and refine the design.

  • @sdb8478
    @sdb8478 День тому +1

    Beauty is pain, heels were never meant for practicality and there is no scenario where stileto heels could be engineered to be both aesthetic and ergonomic. These silly new shoes are ironically the most glaring evidence of that.
    Sadly, these sneex are going to be sold like hot cakes and because of how objectionable they actually look, buyers will regret them within a year and they'll all eventually end up in donation bins and landfill.
