When it comes to choosing the perfect pair of heels, it shouldn't feel like you have to sacrifice comfort for style. And one kind of shoe which knows this well is the block heel, the style that proves you really can have the best of both worlds. Whether you’re heading to an event, spending the day on your feet or just looking to update your wardrobe, block heels tick every box.

Here’s why we love them...

Extra Support

If you’re not used to wearing heels, a classic stiletto type heel can feel a bit daunting. Block heels provide that little bit of extra stability thanks to their wider base and therefore surface area. The weight of your body is distributed more evenly, which makes them easier to walk in, especially over longer periods.

No More Sinking

We’ve all been there- walking across grass in skinny heels, only to find yourself trying not to sink into the ground. Or trying to navigate a cobbled street in shoes that were clearly designed for smoother surfaces. Block heels solve this problem beautifully- the larger surface area creates a sturdier foundation, making them the perfect choice for outdoor events, weddings or city strolls where the pavement can be unpredictable.

A Sleek, Modern Silhouette

Beyond comfort and practicality, block heels bring something extra to the table- style. Their bold, sculptural shape instantly adds a modern edge to any outfit. Whether you’re pairing them with a dress, tailored trousers, or just your favourite jeans, block heels strike the perfect balance between timeless style and contemporary cool.
