These Hi-Tech Heels Are the Future of Race Day
Wearable Technology is coming to the Melbourne Spring
Carnival like never before, using world-first women's shoes
developed for the diverse activities a day at the races attracts.
Using a Little help from shoe designer to the stars, Kira
Goodey, the Australian Turf Club commissioned The Unpredictaheel after asking
racing enthusiasts what features they'd want for women's heels race day shoes
when their wildest fantasies could be realised.
The end result are world-first women's pumps that consist of
eight attributes that easily accommodate the varied and unexpected chances a
day in Melbourne Spring Carnival can bring, from rushing and style, to
entertainment and hospitality.
Everything except helping the wearer forecast the winning
horse has been built into the women's heels, including RaceAlert heels that
vibrate two minutes prior to each race starts, and ViewBoost which increases
the height of the wearer to get a better view of the activity. When the day
finally comes to an end, click your heels twice just like Dorothy and the tap and
go feature will book your ride home.
Literally that will be a saviour in the end of the day!
The Unpredictaheel will soon be set to the test on four
Carnival days, Colgate Optic White Stakes Day, TAB Epsom Day, Moët and Chandon Spring Champion
Stakes Day and The Everest Race Day, together with E! Australia sponsor Ksenija
Lukich launches the
women's pumps on 16 September at Colgate Optic White Stakes Day.
Designed and hand made in her London studio, these are some
