So, you’re off to Pacha or Fabric tonight and you’re looking forward to wearing your new heels.
Forward-wind to early tomorrow morning, when you’re hobbling out of the venue begging for a taxi, with those heels in a spare Aldi carrier bag.
Well it’s finally time to say goodbye to braving cold pavements in bare feet, because a total genius has created a pair of special shoe socks to wear after a night out.
Aptly named “Aftersocks”, the incredible creation comes with a reinforced sole. So you can ditch the heels without hurting your feet.
You can even walk to the kebab shop without shoes – your feet will remain clean and comfy. And the best part? They roll up super-small, so you can fit them inside the tiniest of clutch bags.
The socks have been launched on Kickstarter and are already 568% funded, raising over £27,000.
They’re set to be available in three different colours. The product is made from high-quality nylon and cotton with a PVC sole to make the sock stronger and to provide extra protection.
And you won’t have to sacrifice style, either, with the socks available in black, silver and gold and in sizes small, medium and large.
The campaign will remain on Kickstarter for the next 12 days before the product is developed.
Once on sale, the socks will be priced at £14 for a pack of three.
The Creators say ” Aftersocks is an elegant solution to a problem that most women face. A solution so simple that no one ever thought of it: Aftersocks that have been thoughtfully designed and crafted with an underside constructed from PVC and extra soft layers of cushioning that hug the contours of your feet.”
Why the hell didn’t anyone think of this prior to my rubbing the skin off the soles of my feet every weekend for a decade?
