Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about these ultra-thin, emergency flip-flops.
What are SHMLSS™?
Ultra‑thin (3mm), reusable emergency flip‑flops designed for relief after heels. Discreet, stylish, clutch‑fit footwear for nights out, weddings, and events.
Why SHMLSS™?
Because nights don’t always go as planned. Heels hurt, break, or give out — SHMLSS gives you a safe, clean exit without sacrificing style.
How do they work?
Carry in a clutch or bag... swap out heels when pain hits → walk home, catch a cab, or keep dancing — confidently.
Will they fit in a clutch or purse?
Yes. SHMLSS™ are 3mm thin and foldable, designed to slide into an evening clutch or small purse without bulk. Roll smaller if needed and secure with a hair tie.
Are they slippery?
No. The treaded rubber sole grips on smooth floors—clubs, sidewalks, and dance floors.
Are they disposable?
No. SHMLSS are reusable emergency footwear, not single‑use waste. Wash with dish soap after each use and they’re ready for the next night out.
Are they pocket-sized?
Yes. Ultra-thin and foldable, SHMLSS™ fit most pockets for hands-free carry.
What sizes do you offer and how do I choose?
There are two sizes to choose from: Small (W4–W9) and Large (W9.5–W14).
How can I carry my heels after I switch?
Yes. Add our Heel Concealer Bag for a discreet, fashion-forward way to carry heels once you swap.
Are they hygienic?
Yes. Made from clean EVA foam and rubber, they are easy to clean. Must be unworn for exchanges or returns.
Are they for men too?
Yes. SHMLSS™ flip-flops are unisex. The extremely portable design makes them the best choice for quick comfort when ANY shoes give out. This makes them a good choice for hikers as a back-up in case their shoes get wet.
Can I wear them for athletic activities?
No. SHMLSS are for nightlife, weddings, and events — not running or athletic use.
