What’s Currently Going on in the Industry?
The shoe industry? Pretty rigid. Most shoes are built for average-sized feet, leaving folks with narrow heels out in the cold – or rather, out of their shoes. Drugstore heel pads? Yeah, they’re about as helpful as a screen door on a submarine, losing stickiness after a few wears. Blisters, bunions, and wasted cash are the unfortunate reality for many.
Company Birth Story
Meet Tina Wright: A corporate warrior by day, blister-sufferer by night. After walking out of one too many pairs of shoes, she tried every heel insert out there, to no avail. Eventually, she gave up on professional-looking heels, resorting to clogs like a disgruntled barista. That is, until her toddler inherited the same thin feet, sparking Tina’s genius idea: a strap to hold heels in place. From that lightbulb moment, GRRIPP Industries – and The Heel Sling – was born.
