How to Style It
Why It Works
A 3-inch block heel that delivers the height of a stiletto with a stable base that holds up through a full evening.
- The sculptural block heel provides a wide, grounded base that distributes weight evenly, reducing fatigue during extended standing or walking.
- The slim adjustable ankle strap with gold-tone buckle keeps the fit secure across different foot widths without fussing mid-day.
- The clean black colorway and square open toe work equally well with tailored trousers, a midi skirt, or a sheath dress.

How stable is the heel for walking on city streets or office floors?
The block heel base is wide and flat, which provides significantly more stability than a stiletto. It handles smooth office floors and paved surfaces well; the heel is not rubber-tipped for cobblestones or uneven terrain.
Does the ankle strap adjust to fit different ankle sizes?
Yes, the ankle strap closes with a gold-tone buckle and has multiple adjustment points, making it suitable for a range of ankle widths.
Is the footbed cushioned for extended wear?
The insole includes light padding for added comfort. For events requiring several hours of standing, a thin cushion insert can be added for extra support.
