More flat shoes please!

I can't count the number of otherwise great outfits I've passed up entirely because of high heels. It's the first thing I look at and almost always end up groaning and moving on.
Medieval assassins that mostly operate on muddy ground do not dress like catwalk models. Ancient world warriors fighting on sand do not benefit from stilletos.
It's hard mixing and matching the surprisingly limited number of non-heels to get something that looks like it would fit with the outfit, so I've just given up buying high heeled outfits entirely.
If anyone that creates these kind of outfits is listening, can you PLEASE at least give a flat shoe option in the form of a morph, or make the heel detachable whenever possible?
Given the prevalence of heels on basically every outfit, I have to assume the creators know their market and they're more profitable than flat or historically accurate footwear.
Genuine question - are there really so few people out there who need serious practical outfits for renders?

No, you're not the only one wanting sensible footware, that complaint pops out quite regularly. But we're obviously the minority.

Count me in. I'd love to see some nice pumps with low kitten heels and while I'm at it - outfits with necklines that don't show off ridiculous amounts of cleavage.
As pointed out in the thread posted by Leana, it's called kitbashing, using parts from other outfits, in this case the shoes. I am the target market when it comes to heels, love them and buy them, but for warrior women in battle renders, I opt for no heels, usualy going with wraps or sandals (which would be bad in real life battle also, but more believable
Closing this since we have had a couple of recent threads on the topic.
