From time to time we come across objects that leave us speechless, or that reactivate our nostalgia to the maximum. You may have thought that we were wrong to write “shoes with a removable heel”, but no, you read right; they exist and are for sale (not to be confused with the folding ballerinas, they have nothing to do with it).
If you are a fashion lover and have a good memory, perhaps you remember a spot by Mary Paz that dates from the year 2011 in which many of us saw, for the first time, the famous shoes with folding heels. The video, which we can see on YouTube, is priceless.

Available in black, beige and red, they have two heel height options: 8.5 and 3.5 centimeters.
Sincerely, the photographs of the giant of the e-commerce they do not seem very convincing to us. We don’t doubt that they are comfortable in their tall version (we wouldn’t put our hands in the fire in their defense either), but the folding heel does not quite convince us, at least in the images. Everything will be to try it first-hand to give a well-founded option.
