any idea if etonic is coming out with new shoes with interchangeable heels??
-
they have been trying for a couple years now but since dexter patented their heel its hard.
-
I was reading on here over the summer that etonic was making a interchangeable heel and that they was going to use some sort of magnet technology and that they was going to be released in mid november of this year but haven't heard of anything since. Just curious if someone else has heard of anything different

Ok here is the deal. The shoes were suppose to come out in November. They will be pushed back to February. I have seen the test shoes and let me tell you they are different than all of the other interchangable shoes on the market. Also they are great looking. I hope to get some more info about it. Getting around dexters patent heel is hard but the new shoe looks like a complete winner.

Are they stil going with the VHA- variable adjust heel?
I have been told by them for the past three years that something is supposed to come out in 6 months.
How did 3g get around the pantent.. is the fact they have the middle post that the velcro heel goes around make it different enough to get its own patent ??

This will not be the VHA heel shoes. These shoes were designed by Bobby Lancaster. He left etonic about a year ago. Now the designer is David Ozio. David Ozio was the main person behind Dexters interchangable shoes. David Ozio is working hard to get these shoes out. The test pair looked fantastic and is state of the art design. As far as getting around the patent its really tough. The heel cannot come off completely with velcro. 3g got around this with the piece in the middle. I am not completely sure how the heel comes off of the etonic shoe but it does come completely off.
