The phrase a shoo in comes from the 1920s referring to a rigged horserace meaning a "sure win", though today's post isn't about horseracing it's about a new high heeled shoe named Sneez. The shoe is the brainchild of the founder of Spanx who set out to create a high heel shoe as comfortable as a pair of sneakers. First the shoe needed to have more toe room so it didn't compress the toes, second it fills the gaps so your foot is properly supported, the third pain point was balance which was 80% of the weight on the ball of the foot and 20% on the heel, Sneez makes the weight distribution closer to 50/50. The shoes are made in Spain of Napa leather and Italian mesh, are available in a variety of styles, and cost between $395-$595. It's still hard to understand why "white collar" workers would go along with wearing uncomfortable shoes or willingly tie a noose around their necks everyday in the name of office attire.
