Move over Victoria Beckham! Imagine four-inch heels that are comfortable?

Let’s face it. Heels make legs look better, no question about that. We would wear them if they were comfortable. But we know that a night out in four-inch heels can be painful.

Believe it or not, there is a team of scientists from Silicon Valley and a former space executive working to develop high heels that are comfortable. This is a great story and you have to wonder who was behind the push to do this research. We could actually look forward to the Rihanna and Manolo Blahnik collaboration and wear heels from their upcoming new collection.

The only other thought is can they make them not only comfortable but insure that we won’t trip in them or get heels caught in the brick sidewalk? Another future project perhaps:
