The issue is that heels are notoriously uncomfortable.
Well, young entrepreneur Haley Pavone created a solution to this problem.
In 2021, Pashion Footwear arrived on Season 12 of “Shark Tank.”
In herpitch, Pavone explained that she invented the shoe while she was just a sophomore in college.
Additionally, they grossed $500,000 in sales (viaShark Tank Recap).
With such a successful business already, Pavone and Pashion Footwear already seemed to be in a good place.
However, the business hopeful explained that return profits in the footwear industry are tricky.
So, all she needed was just one Shark’s help keeping her innovative company afloat.
What happened to Pashion Footwear on Shark Tank?
In addition to detachable heels, the midsoles provide arch support that makes each pair of shoes fully convertible.
This forewarning proved correct: Kevin “Mr.
Wonderful” O’Leary was interested in making a deal but wanted a royalty on each pair of shoes sold.
Cuban, Lori Greiner and guest investor Kendra Scott were also out.
Pavone was not willing to agree to the high royalties, and Mr.
Wonderful wouldn’t budge.
Thus, Pashion Footwear ended up leaving the Tank with no deal.
Pavone evenlanded a spot on the 2022 Forbes “30 Under 30"list.
