Removable heel

Removable heel is a concept that allows the wearer to easily change heels of a shoe during the day in order to change height, color or shape of the heel.

Reducing heel height might lessen pain and the health effects of high-heels.[1]

History

Removable heels were first imagined in 1956 by French shoe designer André Perugia[2]

Several brands tried to launch the concept in the 1980s and 1990s without success.

After 2010, several brands succeeded in manufacturing and selling removable heel footwear, including Tanya Heath Paris.[1]
