Comfort with Class

The term “comfortable heels” may sound like a legend of urban fashion, but trust me: they are there. From platforms to heels blocking to conventional pumps. There are plenty of shoes that give you height without sacrificing comfort or style (these aren’t the orthopedic heels of your grandma). If you are still searching for the perfect pair you will be able to stand / walk / survive in without battling blisters or crippling pain. Then for you, these are the best ideas.

1.The Notare Mule

“In the summer, sometimes all you need is a colorful mule to take an outfit to the next level. I love this pair from M. Gemi; just slip them on and go!” —Erica Gonzales, News and Entertainment Editor of Vougue, U.K.

2. Lauren Espadrille Sandals

“A wedge is the ultimate way to get height without sacrificing comfort. I lived in these Chloé espadrilles throughout my pregnancy and they’re still my summer go-to.” —Joyann King, Executive Director of Vogue, U.K.

3.Snake-Effect Leather Slingback Sandals

“These sandals have quickly become my favorite summer heel because they’re the perfect mix of comfort and fashUN. Not only are they the perfect walking height, the straps don’t uncomfortably dig into your feet, which is difficult when shopping the strappy sandal trend.” —Lauren Alexis Fisher, Market Editor of Vogue, U.K.

4. Ariella Sandal

“Honestly, I’ve never had a bad experience in a Schutz heel, they’re so comfortable and this style has become my go-to because you can literally wear them with anything.” —Chrissy Rutherford, Special Projects Director, Talent and Social  of Vogue, U.K.

5.The Rapture & Clinger Bootie

“I wear these boots all fall and winter (and sometimes with short skirts in the summer) and can run in them if needed! I own them in suede, velvet, and satin and they go with absolutely everything.  They easily transition from weekend wear, to the office to nights out–I pair them just as easily with cocktail dresses as I do with jeans and sweaters during the colder months.” —Carrie Goldberg, Weddings & Travel Director of Vogue, U.K.
