Hoda Kotb wants you to walk a mile in her shoes.

On the Monday, Sept. 9 episode of Today with Hoda & Jenna, the 60-year-old host showed off her footwear by Sneex, a new design from the creator of Spanx.

"I’ve never been happier in shoes in my life," Kotb said at the start of the episode. She paired her black-and-white Sneex (a sneaker-heel hybrid) with a simple black dress. "Sara Blakely from Spanx made them. They feel, and I’m not joking, they feel like sneakers and they’re heels. They’re so comfortable, I could wear them anywhere. I’m never taking them off as long as I live."

When Hager, 42, asked her co-host if she planned to wear them "every day," Kotb said, "Every day. You’re going to get so sick of them."

Kotb continued to gush, "I love them. I’m going to wear them all the time. First of all, they give me the height and the comfort. What else is there? I’m not looking down all the time!"

When Hager claimed that the Sneex "don't match every single outfit," Kotb rebutted, "Yes, they do! I’d wear them with everything."

Blakely, who founded Spanx shapewear in 2000, debuted her latest innnovation in August. Sneex is a sneaker-heel hybrid that "blends the style of a traditional high heel with the performance and comfort of a sneaker," per a press release.

"We are fed the line that ‘beauty is pain’... but I don’t believe it has to be," Blakely said via the release. "As a consumer, I have wanted to solve this problem for years.”

The patent-pending design, available in three styles and ten colorways on Sneex.com, features fine napa leather and suede from Italy and Spain. Sneex are handcrafted in Spain with prices ranging from $395 (for styles like The Icon) to $595 (The Tepper) in whole sizes ranging from 5 to 11.
