15 Best Comfortable High Heels (Review) In 2022

Allegra K’s chunky solution is the exact opposite of its name- these babies are super lightweight and designed to snugly strap on to your ankles, so you have a fluid and easy carriage.

Allegra K’s comfortable platform heels offering is designed with faux suede, so it’s not hot or harsh on the soles of your feet. An open-toe design means you can show off that killer pedicure every time you step in these shoes. Block heels on  Allegra K Women’s High Chunky Heel Buckle Ankle Strap Sandals ensure that your weight is evenly spread on the platform base, and with a height lower than 4 inches, they’re all the comfort you need. You can combine them with one of the best heel inserts from our list.

Sam Edelman’s Hazel managed to make kitty-heeled shoes that are still super comfortable, and we absolutely love them for it. These 3.5 inch high pumps are cushioned with a 4mm insole, so you don’t exactly feel like you’re walking on cement. 

Another magic trick that Sam Edelman pulled on the hazel is the appropriate toe cleavage. The problem with most pumps is that they don’t leave enough space for toes to sit comfortably, but the Sam Edelman’s Women Hazel Dress Pump pulled out a trump card for that, which is why they have our number 2 spot for comfortable high heels. To meet up with the wide range of women fashion needs, the Hazel shoes come in a variety of cute patterns and colors. There’s something for every woman for every occasion, from sassy Diana to preppy Chloe.

Quick one: Women asked for comfortable high heels, and Aerosole said ‘Shore Thing.’ Then they went ahead to design Aerosole’s Women Shore Thing Dress Pump  – 2-inch pumps with rounded toes and a classic, glossy upper, so you don’t have to give up style for comfort.

Aerosole’s heel rest technology is designed to shift your body weight from the balls of your feet to your heels for pure comfort all day long. That, plus double-padded insoles is a sure sign that these shoes were made to be lived in. With the diamond-patterned rubber soles on the Shore Thing, you can be sure of firm grip and traction, even on uneven surfaces. Make sure you also check our guide to the best insoles.

Cole Haan’s Women’s Warner Grand Pump 55MM look like the love child of the Allegra K’s high chunky heel and Sam Edelman’s Hazel pumps. These chic shoes come in a 2-inch high block heel with a cushioned insert for maximum comfort.

The Warner Grand pumps are designed with ankle straps and buckle closure so you can adjust them to fit snugly on your feet. These shoes are also very lightweight so you can jump, step, and click without caution.  Because of the round toe and the leather straps, you may want to buy half a size up to increase room for your feet and save yourself the hard leather blisters from the first few wears.

Naturalizer Women’s Michelle Dress Pumps  are not new to the women’s shoe game, and they kept to their reputation with the Michelle pumps. At a 3-inch heel height, women can have the best of both worlds – elegance, and comfort. The Michelle pumps are high enough to look elegant but not enough to have you wobbling on your feet.

With the plush, all-shoe-round lining, and level platform, the Michelle pumps make sure that you have that confident stride all day long. You may also like to check our guide to the best flip flops for women.

For heels as high as 4-inches, it’s impressive that the JENN ARDOR stilettos are still super comfortable.  These heels are wide enough to offer more support than traditional stilettos, so say goodbye to red, sore, blistering feet.

Another huge plus is that JENN ARDOR Stiletto High Heel Shoes are made from 100% synthetic materials, so you don’t have to worry that animals had to die just because you wanted to amp up your style. Plus, JENN ARDOR threw in a 30-day money-back guarantee, and if that’s not proof of confidence in their product, we don’t know what is.

By default, many women think that cheap shoes often have poor quality, but Susanny went all out to prove them wrong with Susanny Women’s T-Strap Dress Pumps. We don’t really know how they did it, but what we do know is they came up with a super cute, comfy pair of heels. They might remind you of ballet pointe shoes, because of their color and cuteness, but they stand for highly comfortable high heels.

The T-strap cone-heeled shoes are designed with a decorative bow on top; which is not a detail we’re particularly excited about. However, 3-inch thick heels provide all the support and make for a very balanced movement.  The round toes are wide enough for your feet to rest comfortably and the elastic, clip-on latch is an absolute delight. Note that these shoes do not have any padding so you may want to hold on to your foot gel if you’re going to be wearing them for long hours. At least we know where Susanny skimped on the bucks.

City Classified Comfort Medium High Heels are super stylish, yet that does not mean you have to wince through wear, and that’s a big plus in our books. The shoes have a medium-low kitten heel about 3 inches high, so that makes them an easy choice for any occasion.

Closed toed heels are not always the best when it comes to comfort, yet City Classified defied that belief and lined their pumps with memory foam so that the feet do not take the toll of movement friction. And you get all these pluses for half the price of regular pumps, and twice the comfort. What’s not to love?

Marco Republic is another brand that offers quality footwear for great prices. With their 4-inch, memory foam cushioned pumps, that reputation is preserved.

The City Classified Comfort Nola Ankle Strap Block Heels are padded for ultimate comfort, and the faux suede material is soft. Block heels and a wide base give you all the support and balance you need to strut your stuff without breaking a leg.

JENN ARDOR has a thing for producing versatile women shoes, and it’s all the plus that they’re so comfortable. With this second product of theirs on our list, they design a chic, peep-toed slingback that is perfect for any occasion.

At slightly above 3 inches, the slingbacks are just high enough to amp up any attire you add them, but low enough that you can comfortably walk all day in them. JENN ARDOR Women’s Slingback Stiletto Pumps are made of entirely synthetic, breathable material and the peep toe is great for more ventilation. It also means that this pair is a lifesaver for wide feet. If your new shoes are feeling tight, check out our shoe stretchers review.

Dunion’s offer a fiercely trendy style for all the comfort you still get. These 3.5-inch heels have a stylish, strappy design that is bound to amp your style and have heads turning while you strut.

Rubber soles on the Dunion Bernice Open Toe Strappy Stiletto ensure that the said strut is not interrupted by a skid and fall, and the faux leather is soft, so the shoes are fine for all-day wear. The footbed and stiletto heels are double padded with memory foam to offer ultimate balance and stability while walking. Check out our buying guide for best pole dance shoes.

If you cannot tell from their name, Söfft makes shoes so comfortable, they had to have two ‘F’s for emphasis. They may be on the high side, but the Söfft Women’s Ophia Heels deliver so much on style and comfort that you probably wouldn’t mind.

If boho cool is your style, then you’d love the wood grain details on Sofft’s design. Adjustable ankle straps mean it slips on and off in a blink, and the peep toes are all the space you need for your toes to breathe. The textured heels give you balance for that spring in your walk, and at inky 2 ¾ Inches high, you could be walking all day in these shoes.

The leather upper is gentle on the feet, but it may take a few weeks of wear to break it in and reduce the friction on your feet. Alternatively, use gel inserts for the first few wears.
