Heavenly Feet is a footwear brand that specialises in comfort and style, and in time for Christmas they have launched a brand new ultra lightweight range: Litesoles.
The new range comes in as light as an average pair of trainers, so even though they are a sturdy and reliable pair of shoes they will also leave the wearer feel like they are walking on air. Not only is the new range almost impossibly light, but every single pair is made of vegan-friendly materials, making them a more sustainable option.
There's many different options to choose from; ankle boots, tall bots, lace up boots, coloured boots. We particularly adore the Alana boot, which is a gorgeous ankle boot embossed with a beautiful floral design. Available in multiple colours, including a stunning rich purple, these boots will make a great statement.
Prices starting at £45.95.
