- training and turnkey footwear collection development
Courses, personalized guidance, concept development, and production.
We help designers and brands create in-demand footwear products.
Heels&Hues – is an agency that helps footwear brands and manufacturers create in-demand collections with minimal time and resource investment.

We understand how complex the process of developing a new footwear line can be — from the initial idea to the final prototype. Trend research, technical drawings, sourcing components, and coordinating with manufacturers — all of this requires time, focus, and skilled professionals.

Our team takes care of these tasks, helping you streamline the process and reduce the workload on your in-house team. We work with a deep understanding of your brand’s identity, creating collections that align with its style, market demands, and technical capabilities.

We offer a full range of services: design development, technical documentation, material sourcing, prototyping, and production oversight. Additionally, we create custom lasts and components that enhance the comfort, functionality, and exclusivity of your product.

Thanks to our experience and close collaboration with sole and component manufacturers, we deliver efficient solutions that enable brands and factories to launch new collections faster and with greater ease.

A Few words from the Founder
Hi! My name is Elena Krutas, and I’ve been creating footwear for over 10 years — from concept to production. Over the years, I’ve developed thousands of patterns, helped launch brands, set up manufacturing processes, and trained future footwear designers.

I know how challenging the collection development process can be — endless idea searching, working with patterns, selecting materials, coordinating with factories… It takes a lot of time and energy. That’s exactly why I founded Heels&Hues — to simplify this process for brands and manufacturers.

Our team helps create commercially successful collections, optimize costs, and support production at every stage. We know how to craft footwear that is high-quality, in demand, and profitable.

If you value saving time and resources while receiving professional support, we’d be happy to work with you!
