Heel Shields created to STOP BLACK HEEL

Heel Shields were created to solve a very real problem. Over time, driving will damage the back right heel of the driver's shoe - causing BLACK HEEL. BLACK HEEL the condition caused by UNPROTECTED DRIVING!

In fact, driving a manual transmission can cause the driver to have BLACK HEEL on both shoes.

Several years ago I purchased a red and yellow pair of Stuart Weitzman designer shoes. I wore and drove my car with the red pair of shoes many times - NO PROBLEM!

Then, one day, I was all dressed in and my Beautiful New yellow Stuart Weitzman's Shoes (first wearing). When I arrived, as I was walking to the function from my car someone stopped me to ask, "What is that on the back of your shoe?" To my horror when I looked the back of my shoe was black and all of the yellow leather finish was gone from the shoe. I LOVED this shoe (remember bought two pair)!

So, I tried to have the shoe repaired. I took them to the BEST shoe repair shop in Chicago. No luck. Had the shoe dyed many times - each time you could still see the scarred part- now it was just a weird, bumpy yellowish color. Thanks to this yellow shoe, I created The Heel Shield.

Now no one has to suffer with BLACK HEEL anymore. I did some research and found that people have tried to create a solution to this very real problem for years. Driving shoes were also created to solve this problem.

The problem with the other solutions is they really don't solve the problem or allow the driver to wear shoes that match their outfit. Driving shoes work, however, special driving shoes are expensive, the driver must change shoes or wear the same driving shoes all the time. Changing shoes to drive is inconvenient - especially when the shoes have buckles or straps or when wearing boots.

If the choice is to use Speciality Car Mats, as soon as the car mats become wet or get older, the preventative mats cause the same problem as regular car mats - scuffing the shoe. The Heel Shield is UNISEX - one size fits mens and womens shoes and boots. It is easy to use - SLIPS easily ON the shoe in the car and easily SLIPS off prior to exiting the car. Heel Shields also protect car mats from holes - drivers are able to rest their foot on the car mat - saves the mats and makes for a more comfortable drive.
