Show your toes some love with Rollasoles!
So, you are at the club with your girlfriends. You’re getting your boogie on and having the time of your life. As the lights slowly come on, you remember that all good things must come to an end…
The music dies down and it hits you – you have to walk 12 blocks home and are about to collapse. The soles of your feet feel as though you’ve been beating them with a hammer, and your heels are blistered to the extreme. You know that after a block or two, you will inevitably be falling on your face. Welcome to the world of being a girl – where beauty is both pain and the 6-inch heels that you’ve been frolicking around in all night. How are you going to make it?! Well, you hit the vending machine, of course!
No, not for the Twix bar that you have been craving all day… For Rollasoles – the shoes that will help you glide home in comfort (and in style)! These ballet flats cost less than a drink (5 GBP or about $8), are reusable, and roll into the tiniest little bundle. Oh, and did we mention that they’re adorable!?
As of now, they are only available in England (shucks!) – but my prediction is that once our favorite US nightclubs get a hold of this spectacular idea they will be popping up all over the place. Keeping my fingers crossed!
I need these ASAP!! Like, for tonight! LOL
GENIUS!!!
A shoe vending machine would be the most awesome thing in the history of awesome.
I want a pair in every color! This is awesome!
in the united states there is a company called sparesoles.com that sells similar product but in different package…i just purchased a pair of those. cost more but still adorable….
There is actually a company here in the US that has been selling this slipper for years. sparesoles.com
Rollasoles are cute, to be sure. I can see them falling easily under the ‘impulse buy’ category, and at $8US, that makes sense. But will this be a ‘get what you pay for’ situation? The sizing is S/M/L, so likely a poor fit regardless of your size.
The benefits to compactable shoes are clear – style and portability is a great combo – but if the soles are dirty when the shoe is rolled, then the whole shoe gets dirty, and what’s to keep them rolled in your bag?
It’s great for gals to have an option like this – especially brides. For the rest of the ladies (and the gents!) who want to get out of painful dress or sport shoes and into something stylish and comfy, check out http://www.kigofootwear.com.
kigo shoes are lightweight (about 1/2lb p/pr), foldable, have a patent pending hook system to keep the shoes compacted, come in unisex and women’s styles, in a multitude of color schemes, and are eco-friendly. Rollasoles are a cute option for the club, and for the commute or for transitioning to and from sport activities (like cycling or skiing), kigo footwear is a much sturdier, yet still stylish (and eco) option.
This is also a newly launched company, poised to make a mark. They’ll be for sale online in August, but info and pictures are on the site http://www.kigofootwear.com.
You can get these in the United States at http://www.footzyrolls.com The company was started by two sisters who have been selling their rollable and foldable ballet flats that fit in any clutch bag to people all over the world!
Kigoo look good for when you need something sturdier but wouldn’t look great with party clothes! Rollasoles are semi disposable they are so cheap. Footzy rolls look pretty much the same but more than twice the price! The Rollasoles I bought had a velcro fastening on the shoe bag that kept the shoes securely rolled up in their bag for future use. Great!
