POSH Pocket Shoes

Whenever I go out I run through all the places I have to go, at what time I need to be there, plus the things I have to bring. Then I wear shoes accordingly. If I'm going to the office, I need to hurry and bring my laptop so I wear flats. If I'm going to an event, I need to look glammed up and tall, so I pick heels! But wouldn't it be nice if you can wear both flats and heels whenever and wherever you want to?

That's the dream that POSH Pocket Shoes set out to realize.

POSH Pocket Shoes are exactly what they say they are - posh shoes in a pocket! It's the size of an average kikay kit or makeup bag and could fit comfortably into shoulder and hand bags. The shoes conveniently fold halfway, fitting in a black, zip-up purse which can be converted into a bag for your heels. Ingenious eh? Now you can just take off your heels anytime you feel uncomfortable since POSH shoes are lightweight, small, and thus easy to bring.

The shoes themselves are extremely comfortable. The soles are very cushy while the inside of the shoe is lined with what feels to be soft, faux suede. They retail for only P799.

This nude and black flats is one of POSH's latest (and varied) styles. It's classic and stylish but more importantly, it could match a lot of outfits. It doesn't mean that just because you took of your heels you need to look dowdy and mismatched in your flats!

Overall, I love the quality and style of the shoes themselves (is it obvious? Lol.) I love the thought that went into making them, too. I hope more Pinoy entrepreneurs think up of practical solutions like this! Yes, it's not a revolutionary new idea, but it's an idea executed right. 

 

So what do you think about pocket shoes? Answers in the comments!

Dress with attached vest-thrifted/ Chain necklace from Landmark/ Shoes from eBay

i totally dig the idea! it's a great gift, too! when we first look at it, parang bag or make-up kit but when we open it, surprise! fab shoes pala! :))

lovett! i really think you have this gift or 'third eye' for being able to see the potential behind thrifted pieces. galeng =) your outfit looks very nice paired with the flats. btw, i have that same necklace too! got mine in greenhills for only P200 =)

Hello, where can I buy these pair of shoes? It looks soo comfy :-) Thanks!

September 1, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterGenL

Love your outfit can't believe its thrifted!! This entry makes me want to buy the flats. Thanks for sharing!

September 1, 2010 | Unregistered Commentermcdlh

I love this, I may have just placed an order!

I wish these local shoe companies would make brown flats. Why is everything in black and white and even navy, but no brown?

September 2, 2010 | Unregistered Commentermelvel

@ eyz i know right! so very handy, its small lang! i agree with the gift idea, it's pretty cool. not too expensive too.

@ imriz thank you so much! ^_^ you can find more thrifted goodies on my online store at Ukaymanila.com :D

@ GenL hi! you can click the link of POSH Pocket Shoes above. It will lead to their site.

@ mcdlh thanks!! please visit Ukaymanila.com, we have more finds there. hihi.

@ melvel perhaps because brown isnt in season? i dont know! but nude definitely looks good on the feet. let me know what you think of POSH pocket shoes if you did get them. ^_^

nice pair, Liz! was thinking of getting the black pair with the gold toe. are they super comfy? I'm a bit hesitant to buy them online coz i'd really want to make sure i wouldn't get blisters on my feet :)

September 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMika

Hi Mika! Yes theyre really comfortable. It's cushy and the lining is soft. However the back part of the shoe rubbed on my heel - but ALL my shoes do that. I think it's because my heel is straight instead of rounded. :P The soreness is gone now though, I just needed to break the shoes in.

September 7, 2010 | Registered CommenterLiz Lanuzo

I agree that they're very comfy nga :) what I like about Posh is the bag packaging and maganda siya sa feet unlike other flats that I've tried. Will order the Nude pair like yours! Very Chanel :)

love your navy heels!

Cute! Have you heard of Suelas shoes, they have the same concept and they work in partnership with Gawad Kalinga. Might wanna check out their site: http://www.suelasonline.com/

Hi Paola! I've seen Suelas nga. Really nice designs too, but I think pricier than POSH?

September 19, 2010 | Registered CommenterLiz Lanuzo

Yes, a bit pricier, but maybe because their designs are a bit more varied--like their super cute boat shoes. But I really like how the Posh pouch becomes a tote for you to put your heels in!

September 20, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterPaola

WHERE can I buy Posh Pockets?!? Cannot find info. Where to buy anywhere?!? Pleease email me info.

Thanks so much!!
