The Art and Sole of Shoes

Dr. Bruce Pinker, originally from Suffern, with offices in both Pomona and White Plains is kicking up his heels, putting together some sole music and getting ready to launch his brand new line of luxury, bespoke shoes called Dr. D-LuCS this Thursday December 5th at BLT Steak/Ritz Carlton in White Plains from 5:00pm-7:30pm. "The Art & Sole of Shoes" event will include cocktails, sole music and tasty nibbles plus a signature cocktail appropriately titled "The Perfect Pink Pump". RSVP to email at RSVP@emergingmediapr.com or call 845-504-5219.

Dr. D-LuCS shoes are created by a revolutionary technology called Computerized Scientific Gate Investigation (CSGI), used by only 100 podiatrists in the country. The software allows for a highly detailed examination of the specific foot pressures one endures, observing heel strike, cadence, and several other comparative factors to pinpoint deficiencies in the way one walks. Gate Analysis is the easiest, most pain-free medical test a patient will ever take, and yet the results are undeniable.

Once all of the technological and medical parts are complete, the design process begins. Dr. D-LuCS creates the perfect shoe: luxurious, stylish and more importantly, incredibly comfortable. The creation process takes place during a relaxing and therapeutic whirlpool experience, complete with a foot massage and moisture session. Dr. Pinker recommends that the patient bring a visual of their preferred shoe, and he provides inspiration for unique footwear designs via his Pinterest page. After a patient is sure of the design they want, the shoe-making process begins.

Dr.D-LuCS brand shoes are hand-made in New York City by an experienced and authentic Italian shoemaker. The shoes are created, and the perfect, customized orthotic device is inserted, making no two shoes the same. The soles of the shoes are a light shade of pink, and 5% of all sales are donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
