About this project
Welcome to our Project: Convertible High-Heel Shoes!
OUR PRODUCT:
Day2Night Convertible Heel Shoes - change from high heels to lower heels in seconds. There are five different heel heights that can be placed on and off by simply pressing a button.
Now you ladies won't have to wear sneakers on your commute to work in the morning or carry extra shoes in your purse when going out at night.
Why do women want 1 shoe with multiple heel heights?
- No more traveling & packing tons of shoes
- No more commuting into work in sneakers & changing into heels
- Choose heels to match how tall/ short you prefer to be
- Now carry a small purse... little heels fit in a clutch
- Dance the night away then walk home comfortably
- If the heel tips wears out, simply replace it (never go to the cobblers)
- Bridesmaids can all have the same shoe w/ different heights
Day2Night Convertible Heels - it's the perfect solution!
"Change your heels, not your shoes" TM
Creating our 1st prototypes at Startup Weekend! (Candice 2nd from left)
WHY WE NEED YOUR HELP:
We've been hard at work, prototyping and designing since last summer. We've finalized our design (on the heels and the shoes), done wear testing, and produced awesome looking heels with rapid prototyping/ 3D printing. Now we need to move onto production and we have a manufacturer all setup for us......but....
Who knew how expensive it was to get a stainless steel mold made in China!?!? This will allow us to "injection mold" the heels.
Our patent pending shoes are going to be a huge hit! We've been spending all of our life savings on developing these shoes and we've run out of CASH but certainly not PASSION or DETERMINATION! We need to raise money in order to pay for this mold.
Donate at the $25 level and get this hook to hold up your purse when you're out.
Donate & get this project kickstarted! Help us bring our product to market, into your hands and on your feet :)
We've been pouring our heart and soul for 10 months, trying to make these shoes become a reality. We're extremely passionate about it and are so, so very close to launching. We really need this funding in order to finally put these shoes on women's feet. THANK YOU!!! XOXOX - Candice & Nadine :)
