Pink shoe diary 2

i have been looking for some validation lately and i think that i have found it. it has been really difficult to convey the message of what i have in mind for my designing futures but i think that i have finally found a reasonable design interpretation. granted what i have found isn't exactly what i had in mind but it is close enough that it has given me ideas..

  • there are people out there that are willing to pay more then my wife will pay for a pair of really interesting shoes.
  • there is a large market for custom made shoes that people want to have the ability to custom make themselves.
  • i have a long way to go but it is doable.
in my quest for entrepreneurial bliss i discovered shoes of prey.com

this is essentially what i was thinking about when i was creating the shoe configuator- except different. my idea was to make it much more dynamic and for the most part in 3d. there is a faux 3d designer device but what i was thinking was to make it totally 3d evaluation and complete control over all aspects of the design... for instance i want the customer to be able to adjust the height of the heal to anything they would like not just standard dimensions. also in my device i want the customer to control heal width and toe clearance...

after finding this website i think that i have a clearer picture of what it is that i can design and capture.

now i get to add that to the list...
