High block heels have returned as an essential piece of footwear in today’s wardrobe, providing the ideal footwear solution for outdoor weddings and meetings alike. Their wider girth distributes your weight more evenly while removing some of the discomfort of high-heeled shoes.
Readers love these open-toe block heels from Steve Madden and these textured Nine West pumps, so we rounded up more options – such as styles from small businesses and one pair worthy of wedding day shoes!
1. Style
High block heels feature chunky bases instead of the slim stiletto heels found on other types of shoes, providing more even weight distribution for increased comfort over prolonged use. They may even make walking more manageable!
Shoes for any special event come in various colours, styles and materials to meet every need. Choose between closed-toe block heels with straps that form an ankle grip and open-toe versions with hole-punched material that adds more interest and texture – the options are endless!
Visit local boutiques to find block heels that suit you, or browse online retailers like Steve Madden or Nine West for high-quality styles.
