Nael Coce's Eco-Friendly Stiletto Heel Hides a Built-in Ballet Flat

Ladies, how many times have you donned a pair of what you thought were killer heels for a night out only to find that they were actually murder on your feet? Well, Sheena Young, a Baltimore chemist, has come up with a solution that will give our tootsies a break. Called the Nael Coce Ambi Collection, the new line of high heels (and we mean high – 4″) have built-in liners that turn into flats when you simply can't take it anymore. We've seen portable flats that you can slip in your bag on the market before but this is the first one we've seen that's both built-in and made from eco-friendly materials. Oh and did we mention that the liners will be anti-bacterial too? So smart!

Young, who is currently working on her Ph.D., got the idea for the shoes pretty much exactly how you might think. “This project all came about one New Year's Eve when I grew tired of wearing my high heels, but didn't want to walk barefoot,” explains Young. “This is the perfect solution for all of us women who want to wear trendy, fashion-forward high heel shoes and want the comfort of wearing flats. They provide a simple solution to painful high heel shoes.” We don't think there's a woman out there who would disagree to that.

The versatile heels are made from earth friendly materials and conceal an inner flat shoe that you can slip in and out of the outters whenever your feet need a break. The insoles have anti-bacterial properties and are made from natural fibers that are hypoallergenic and non-toxic.

Nael Coce Ambi is already on the market in two versatile colors – black or gold glitter. Even though they cost $70-$75 each, we think that's a very fair price for what is essentially two shoes in one. Factor in the relief from all of that foot pain, and it seems like a downright bargain!
