About Us

We've been making ELEVATORS® shoes since 1939. ELEVATORS® is our trademark and we are the ONLY company authorized to manufacture, sell, and distribute height increasing shoes called ELEVATORS®. We are a U.S. company based in Frederick, Maryland. We have been at our present location since 1985. We are here to stay! We were the FIRST makers of ELEVATORS® shoes and we feel we are the BEST, in terms of quality, styling, reliability, and integrity. Don't be fooled by imitators!

Our company has been the subject of numerous newspaper and magazine articles as well as being featured on a segment on the ABC television news show "20/20" in May of 1995. We are well known and well thought of in the footwear industry.

We've come a long way since 1939. Our remarkable growth has been due to many factors...the most important being satisfied customers! Customers that keep coming back. So how do we keep them satisfied?

QUALITY PRODUCTS...COURTEOUS SERVICE...PROMPT DELIVERY...INTEGRITY!!

Our company was established in 1939 to fill the needs of men who wanted the important business and social advantages that being taller provided. After much research, the innovative height increasing innermold was adopted because not only did it provide the desired extra height, but it was also concealed inside the shoe. Only the wearer knows the secret!

We have to develop special manufacturing equipment for every one of the styles we offer. We don't just put an insert inside any old shoe...we engineer and design the shoe so that your foot sits comfortably inside. We want you to have the best fitting, highest quality, most comfortable, height increasing shoes possible.
