Shoe Heel heights are measured by lying the shoe on a flat working surface and measuring the heel from the bottom to the high.
We have put our shoes into 4 different heel height categories – High, Mid, Low, and Flat on the website. Refer to the chart to provide an idea of how high the shoe could be. Please use the chart as an essential guide only as sizes differ from manufacturer to manufacturer.
Block heel
Block heels are usually high or short, but they are generally square and have a more sturdy, chunkier layout. If you are seeking a sensible higher heel to use all day, block heels, as well as wedge-heeled shoes, are highly recommended.
Wedge heel
Wedge shoes are an excellent substitute for high heels if you desire a comfy, a lot more sturdy heel. It provides a covered block, and it’s flat to the ground.

Kitten heel
The lowest short slender heel, a kitten heel, features a slightly curved shape adding to the female shape of a court shoe.
Stiletto heel
Stiletto heels are usually slender and high. They offer the illusion of height and definitely will make your feet look reduced while elongating your legs. A sexy women’s shoe, they’ll give you a striking silhouette because of the arched footbed.
