Wedge Shoes That Are Comfortable

I need a low heeled (not over 2" - 2 1/2") wedge shoe that's stylish and also has good arch support. I'm not sure that exists but thought I would come here for recommendations. They can be sandals or closed toes. Clarks are not comfortable for me. There are some really cute ankle length pants that I want to buy, but I don't have the right shoes to wear with them. I don't mind them being expensive if they're going to be comfortable. Thanks for any suggestions.

Re: Wedge Shoes That Are Comfortable

I love born wedge sandals for summer. They usually have a cork bottom, might be 2 3/4 high..but they are also slightly raised in front. I have flat feet and these are the only shows I live in summer--they have many diff styles. Check out ebay and amazon for good prices. Their winter selection is not good.

I love Kork-ease shoes...they come in different heights.

All are very stable and comfortable.

I have them with both leather and cork bases...

I have Cole Haan Air Tali in both black patent and nude. They are super comfortable and wear like iron. I bought them on a 40% sale from their website.

Lulu2, those are really nice. I didn't realize that Cole Haan made really comfortable shoes.

Cole Haan Air are incredibly comfortable. While they are pricier than many lines, you can get them on sale frequently. I've had ballet flats that I've been wearing for close to 5 years and they still look new. Their mid-heel pumps I can wear all day with no fatigue.

There is a men's Air line too. My husband is a convert to them.

Re: Wedge Shoes That Are Comfortable

lulu2, thank you for recommending Cole Haan Air. I am also looking for a flat or wedge. I usually only wear dress shoes on a couple of occasions a year and want a basic, quality shoe that will hold up and is comfortable. I am not familiar will many shoe companies, so having someone make a recommendation is tremendous help. I looked at their website and found several pairs that fit my needs. OP thank you for asking the question or I would have never known.

You can get some outstanding buys on CH at 6PM.com. If you are looking for comfort, make sure AIR is included in the title.

If you sign up on the Cole Haan website, they send you coupon codes.
