Furniture for the Feet

Humans have practically invented all things to get us those physical qualities we think we lack. You have short hair, then get hair extensions. Curly haired? Have it rebonded. Dark skinned, you’ll probably drown with products promising  whiter skin. On the other hand, fair skinned wanting to be darker, they dig tanning products and salons. Fake nails, fake lashes..

Not blessed with a D cup, there’s breast augmentation. The list could go on and on. Man’s obsession in making up for things we don’t have. Innovativeness, creativity, whatever you may call it, but I am really amazed at what people could create.

Here’s one cool thing: Furniture for your feet!

Short folks, want to have the height boost and know how the world looks like if you’re a couple of inches taller? This one’s for the “make me taller” attitude..

Dubbed the “high chair” shoes, these heels feature three scaffolding-like bases to lift its wearer at least 6 inches off the ground.

What do you think? It’s scares me though. I’m on the short side and I love high heels but this one looks scary. I’d feel like walking on stilts instead on heels and if I’m wearing that, expect me to fall flat on my face every minute or so..

   A shortcut to becoming “chairperson”. I guess a couch will make it more comfortable.

   I would definitely break an ankle.

   Sometimes “beauty” is just plain weird.

   Lol @ these shoes…
   I am too tall to wear high heels, and moreover this one looks dangerous… or is it an insurance in the shoe-box together with it? )

   Good find

    Ok I’m a guy. I don’t wear high hills and my wife can’t walk in them, though she is getting better. These remind me of 8 platforms with staletoes. If you think about the design aspects of it there is nothing wrong with them at all the are rounded so they will follow that natural shape of your walk. So really they are nothing more than platform high hills. they are just made differently. If they were to put rubber around them so you couldn’t see the frame work then you might wear them then.

    As much as I’d love to be a little taller. These shoes scare me. I’m sure the first time I take a step while wearing them I’d fall over and break my ankle.

    Thanks, but I think I’ll refrain from wearing furniture. Still, very creative!
