Shoe Vending Machines?

by Tia on June 16, 2009

in Food for Thought

Save the remarks – this article has NADA to do with real estate.  It has everything to do with the love of my life – shoes!!!!!!!!

Remark on this though – would you ever buy shoes from a vending machine?  

 

The Huffington Post Reports: Female clubbers in Britain have been enjoying the comfort of slipping out of their stilettos and basking in the joy of flats at their favorite hot spots. For about 5 pounds (which translates to about 8 bucks), a pair of cushy flats can instantly be yours for your aching feet. And they boast being super flexible, so they can be folded up and stashed in your bag for latter usage.

Founder of Rollasole, Matt Horan, is one clever fellow and his inspiration was nothing short of moments of sheer inconvenience: "After getting tired of giving my girlfriend a piggyback home every Saturday night, I had a 'eureka' moment."

Japan is said to already have these machines and that they do well.  The colors available are silver, gold, black, and pink.  Personally – I think it is a great idea.  I can't tell you how many times I have run into a Target/ Wal-Mart to buy a pair of flip flops because my feet hurt.  Let the shoe vending machine come to america!
