Introduction
We are introducing a brand-new style of footwear. The perfect fusion of design, comfort and
functionality in a single pair of shoes. Your experience of walking, running, and working is
intended to be revolutionized by our revolutionary shoe product.

Our new shoes, which have undergone attention to detail, feature a sleek and contemporary
design, that skilfully mixes usefulness with cutting-edge style.

Wouldn’t it be nice if a pair of convertible shoes could be used on multiple occasions? You
could wear a nice pair of shoes to school and then you wouldn’t need to bring an extra pair of
safety shoes for work or trekking and moreover this shoe can be easily converted to sandals.

Our Convertible shoes kit will contain the following items:

1- Shoes with attached sandal

2- Replaceable top portions-3 pcs
3- Snow detachable Sole
4- high-performance safety attachments-simple Snap-On system

Problem
Purchase many types of shoes:

As we all know that nowadays, every person has different types of shoes in their shoe case.
And every shoe has its own use as people use them for multipurpose.

 For example, formal shoe for their office work, flat shoes for regular use, running
shoes for gym purpose. Abd because of that they must spend hefty amount of money
on footwear. That is why convertible shoes are the best option for people.

Costs:

Another reason why convertible shoes can attract more buyers due to the price. Because price
is most important thing when you buy something. Though the price of convertible shoes may
seem a bit expensive. It is a far better than buying a pair of pumps and regular separately,
 4

which can cost you expensive. Instead of spending that much money you can acquire the best
quality convertible shoes at a reasonable price and wear them for a very long time too.

Save space:

Another problem occurs while buying different shoes is it occupied more space.

For example, nowadays, people generally like to wear shoes according to occasion. For
instance, flat shoes for as a regular footwear, gym shoes, party shoes, and many more.
Therefore, it occupied our space. Whereas convertible shoes save your space. Even when
packing for travelling purposes, the convertible footwear takes up less space in the suitcase
than fixed pumps since it has a detachable part. The material used to make the footwear is
light, so you would not have to carry a lot of weight while you travel.

Multipurpose uses:

Another important reason for buying convertible shoes is that you can use them for multiple
tasks. Take an example, when you buy a regular footwear, it will work as a single model. For
instance, safety shoes will only be used for works, snow shoes for snow, flats will only work
as a flat and sandals will work as sandals only, and so on. However, you can use convertible
shoes for multipurpose with simple attachments.

Ready for any sudden occasion:

Let’s imagine that you suddenly had a plan to hang out with your friends or family directly
from the office. It would be uncomfortable to go out wearing office footwear, which is
generally formal shoes. However, if you have convertible footwear, you can alter this shoe
into comfortable slippers. Because of that, you can be ready for any sudden occasion. And
you don’t need to bring any extra pair of shoes with you, which is not only saves your time
but it also saves your money.
