Pocketflops didn’t just spring to my mind, but rather were the result of a 15 year love affair-gone-bad with heels. Don’t get me wrong, I still LOVE my heels. How can you not? They make you look taller, skinnier, and overall make your body look that much closer to perfection. But I also love my feet and realized that I could no longer regularly put them through the torture that my 18 year old self so readily accepted. Also, I realized it’s much less socially acceptable to be barefoot in public post-college (except in Vegas where you’ll regularly see barefoot girls all over the casino… hmmm). So if you really want to know what it was like to create this product, know that it wasn’t pretty and most of those beginning nights were spent covered in glue and paint, but at the end of the day, creating a product from scratch is more creatively fulfilling than I’d have imagined. Not to mention, it makes all of those fun partying nights, that much more worth it. Thanks for reading! ~Maria
