First Sneak Peek at the New Soft Star Ballet Flat!
Gwen, one of our innovative designer elves, has been hard at work on her latest creation. She's putting the final touches on a project we've been dreaming about for a long time: the Soft Star ballet flat!
Our new ballet flat will be offered in a variety of materials, colors and motifs. We're now excited to share with you the first official photo showing what one of them looks like:
We still have a lot of work to do before we're ready to release this new style, which is currently scheduled to go on sale in August, 2013. We hope you'll stay posted for more updates, because we may be asking for feedback on color choices!
On the horizon...
Many people have inquired about our plans for an adult sandal. We're happy to say our designers are currently working on a pattern for one, but it won't be released until spring 2014. Also on the drawing board: a men's dress shoe!
Martin is a lifelong runner who began wearing minimalist shoes over 10 years ago when he found they alleviated his chronic foot pain, which eventually disappeared completely. He further studied proper running form through a series of workshops taught by Correct Toes inventor, Dr. Ray McClanahan DPM. Martin has collaborated with several health care professionals to collect and share peer-reviewed studies that show the benefits of minimalist footwear. In his personal life, Martin loves living in the Pacific Northwest because it allows him to enjoy a variety of outdoor activities year-round, including hiking, cycling, rock climbing, surfing and snowboarding.
I can't wear any shoes but yours and huaraches since my foot has become more healthy! Thanks for providing such a fabulous product for those of us that value our feet and their happiness! I have been looking forward to a girly shoe for a long time!
Thanks a ton!
