Anyone who has ever been a bridesmaid, knows that wearing brand-new shoes for 12 hours at a wedding is a recipe for blistered feet. Or blister on top of blisters.
Many a bridesmaid got some solace kicking off their shoes beneath the head table during dinner, but the problem was, they still had to put the shoes back on to dance or else go barefoot. For years we have suggested to our brides, that they buy slippers or flip-flops for their bridesmaids to wear during the reception, but again, they would have to put those torturous shoes back on to go home. So slippers were only a temporary solution.
Canadian Hailey Coleman has come up with a better idea: Damn Heels! "Damn Heels" are comfortable ballet shoes that fold away and tuck into a pouch (included) that is small enough to fit in a clutch purse!
These cute ballet flats are made of a high-quality polyurethane material and have a soft, leather lining. The two-millimeter-thick sole is bendable and has a tread! The fold up pouch then opens to an 18-inch pouch to carry the high heels.

Damn Heels come in 3 sizes: Small (5-6),Medium (7-8) and Large (9-10), are only $20 and ship from Canada. They are currently only available in black, but the creator plans to also offer them in red, gold, brown and beige, soon.
The best thing about this gift is, the bridesmaids can use these fold-away shoes again. "Damn Heels" were originally invented to save club-goers from their heels at the end of the night. It might be the only piece of the wedding attire they'll ever wear again 😉
Love these! What a FAB idea!!!
Love this! Perfect for our emergency kits too! Thanks for sharing!
A great blog can give a person new feeling, let the person get happiness, let the person broaden their horizons. I think your blog is that.
I’ve been doing SO much walking in Asia for my current Destination Wedding, my feet looks exactly like the first picture!
I don’t think I could do this. I’ve worn heels for so long I forget what my real height is! But for those who are brave enough, what a comfy idea.
I just bought a pair for my wife for when we go to vegas. She loves her heals but hates trying to walk back to our hotel room after a night of craziness in them. This should help. The best part is she has never heard of these and does not know I have them. I will pull them out for her when she starts to complain about her feet 🙂 BEST HUBBY EVER
