text: Most women have known the frustrated feeling of nursing the broken heel of a irreplaceable shoe. Or perhaps even experienced the struggle of finding footwear that is appropriate for all occasions. Tanya Heath Paris has revolutionised women's footwear with her collection of shoes that feature an interchangeable heel. Scroll down for video . Tanya Heath Paris features hundreds of heel varieties that slide and click into place, and can be released at the push of a button . A high heel (up to 3.5 inches) can be swapped for a lower heel (1.5 inches),without compromising the style . The first of their kind, the shoes, which start from £260) are supposedly comfortable and come in a variety of styles. Every shoe features a button on the inside of the shoe, in the centre of the heel. Once a new heel is slid into the shoe, it is locked into place, and at the press of the button, the heel can be released and slid out of place. The fact that the heel unlocks also makes awkward packing attempts a lot easier, and means that the heels can be also be slipped into an evening bag. In terms of storing the shoes, the heel can easily be slid off and packed away, which makes for less clumsy carrying or packing . There are hundreds of heel varieties available, from high to low, stiletto to chunky, and in a large array of prints . The brand was perfected in September 2013, with the tagline reading: 'Same shoe, different heels, endless possibilities.' From strappy metallic sandals, to versatile black pumps, there are styles to fit all occasions, and that's before the multitude of heel choices are taken into consideration. Canadian-born designer Tanya Heath has lived and worked in Paris for the last 20 years . The interchangeable heels come in all widths, from chunky and secure, to a stylish stiletto, and prints vary from leopard print, to pink glitter, to even adorned with metal spikes. Undoubtedly, the real sell is that, without changing the form or composition of the actual shoe, a high heel (up to 3.5 inches) can be swapped in for a low heel (1.5 inches). Masterminding the brand is Canadian fashion designer, Tanya Heath. The 44-year-old has lived and worked in Paris for the last 20 years, and worked in strategy, consulting, technology and private equity. Also a wife and a mum of three, Heath had no prior professional training and was completely self-taught. When Tanya talks about inspiration for the start of the brand, she insists that it was completely personal. '[The inspiration was] From my life. I wore high heels to work, to restaurants, to parties. 'I wore them everywhere but I could never manage the pain. Once I nearly had a car accident when my heel locked under the break. 'I just fantasised non-stop about a shoe where you could just take the heels off, and that would go from a comfortable low-heel to a high-heel, and still make me look good!' Tanya has admitted that it was difficult to create a shoe, where the composition wouldn't change depending on the height of the heel. 'It took 14 engineers and two and a half years to perfect the arch and the clip. 'Once we had a working principle, over 10 designers, shoe technicians and last specialists worked on creating styles that work in multi-height.' Her shoe collection has now become fully integrated with her own wardrobe. She has worn a style from the collection 'every day of my life for the past 3 years!' Tanya Heath's invention means that high stilettos (pictured left) can be swapped for a chunky more comfortable heel (pictured right) depending on the occasion . It's not only just the heel height that's the selling point - different prints can boost the outfit. In this case, pink sparkly heels are being chosen and slid on . In terms of the celebrities Tanya would want to wear the heels, the list is endless. 'There are so many women who I admire. I would love Kate Middleton to try a pair because she has single-handedly re-branded fashion for the monarchy. 'And also Emma Thompson, who was so clearly unhappy with the comfort of her heels last year at the Academy Awards.'
