Abstract (en)

[origin: US2013312285A1] Embodiments of this invention include a shoe having removable or interchangeable heels. Some embodiments have a low heel and a high heel, each having mechanisms for attaching and detaching said heel(s) from said shoe. Further embodiments include a shoe body having an expandable element, permitting the shoe body to attain a shape suitable for low heel configuration, and permitting the shoe body to change shape to accommodate a high heel configuration. Embodiments of this invention thereby permit a person to wear a single pair of shoes, carry one or more pairs of heels, and change the heels to either low heel or high heel shoes. Such embodiments eliminate the need for a person to carry a multiplicity of pairs of shoes.
