A convertible shoe may include a sole and a plurality of interchangeable heel portions, each selectively attachable to the sole. The heel portions may each include a mounting surface configured to interface with a heel receiver of the sole. The heel receiver may include a fixed hook and a movable hook, with the movable hook being operable by an actuator coupled to a bottom surface of the sole. In some examples, an upper is secured to the sole of the shoe by one or more clamping plates. In some examples, the sole of the shoe is configured to be biased into a default bend corresponding to a high-heeled state even when a low heel is attached to the heel receiver.

A transformable shoe is an apparatus that allows a user to customize the height of the shoe. The apparatus includes a shoe body, at least one interchangeable heel, and a lift-receiving bed. The shoe body surrounds and supports the foot against the ground. The interchangeable heel uplifts the shoe body above the ground. More specifically, the interchangeable heel uplifts a heel seat above the ground and defines an arch of the foot. The interchangeable heel may be a collapsible heel and solid wedge body. The height of the apparatus is dependent on the arrangement of the plurality of anthropomorphic members for the collapsible heel and the fixed height of the solid wedge body. The interchangeable heel includes a heel-bracing portion. The lift-receiving bed is integrated into a shank of the shoe body, and the heel-bracing portion is mounted adjacent to a heel seat of the shoe body.

The height of the apparatus is dependent on the arrangement of the plurality of anthropomorphic members with each other, moreover the plurality of anthropomorphic members may be arranged into a high-heel configuration, a wedge configuration, and a flat configuration. In order to secure the configuration, a telescopic extrusion is integrated into a distal member of the collapsible heel. The telescopic extrusion connects the distal member to the lift-receiving bed.

A protective heel cover. The protective heel cover includes a base wherein the base has a straight front edge and a curved rear portion. The base has a side wall rising vertically therefrom. The side wall starts at one side of the straight front edge encircles around the curved rear portion and ends at the opposing side of the straight front edge. The base and the side wall are made from a protective material. There is a strap that is connected to the side wall. The strap will go across the top of a user's food securing the protective heel cover to the user's shoe heel.

A shoe assembly includes a front sole section, a rear sole section, a heel, and a hinge. The front sole section has a front sole section rear edge. The rear sole section includes a rear sole section front edge, a shank, and a release button. The heel may be removably attached to the shank and may be released from a locked position by the release button. The hinge connects the front sole section and the rear sole section. The hinge is perpendicular to a rear sole section axis.

The present invention provides a novel method for protecting and preserving the life of a shoe. The invention preserves the heel section by preventing typical degradation caused by repeated compression of the heel section by allowing the user to insert his or her foot into the rear of the shoe.
