Different types of high heel shoes

If you want to buy a pair of high heels to wear on many occasions, it is important that you first know the different types of heels that exist and when it is appropriate to wear each one.

High heels offer a whole world of possibilities. At Zapatos Mayka you will find the best women's dress shoes , so you can choose them for your most special occasions, events and even for everyday wear.

If you want to know them all, we invite you to discover the main types of women's heels , how to combine them and on which occasions to wear them to succeed:

High heel shoes

When we think of a high heel shoe, we automatically think of shoes with a high heel. Normally, shoes with a heel of more than 7 cm are called this.

They are ideal because they stylize the figure and look great. Because of their height, they are ideal for elegant occasions . They look perfect with long dresses and special events. You can also wear them on a daily basis, with tight jeans or office looks. They are very versatile.

On the downside, because they have a high heel, they are not recommended for walking long distances. But it all depends on how tough your feet are (or how much you are willing to endure!).

Stiletto heel shoes

Stiletto shoes are even more complex than the classic high-heeled shoes. They are usually more than 9 cm high and have a very thin, slim heel.

These shoes are glamorous and flatter the figure. They are ideal for events and parties, because they add a very elegant touch to the look, greatly elevating the appearance of the outfits.

Be careful, because they are not very comfortable to walk in for long periods of time. They are possibly the most complicated heels.

Mid heel shoes

For girls and ladies who can't handle high heels or stilettos, the best invention is mid-heeled shoes. They are less than 7 cm high and are perfect for everyday use as well as for events.

They are one of the most versatile types of heels and can be worn on casual occasions or at work. No matter what event you have in store for you, you will always look good in them. Especially today, where comfort is more important.

Low heel shoes

If mid-heeled shoes are not for you, don't worry, all is not lost, because you can try low-heeled shoes. Normally, these are shoes with a heel of about 3 cm .

Low-heeled shoes are much more comfortable and you can walk without any problems in them, so they are perfect for looking dressed up at work, but without pain in your feet.

These shoes are often preferred by tall people or those with long, thin legs. If you are not worried about slimming your figure because you are already tall, they can be your great ally, to be well dressed and comfortable at the same time.

Platform shoes

Platform heels are trendy for many reasons. They are characterized by having the front part of the sole raised in addition to the heel .

Unlike high heels or stilettos, platform heels offer comfort and are ideal for dancing and walking. They also maintain the elegance of high heels.

There are girls who consider them a bit gross, but it all depends on the look you are going for or want to achieve. In general, they are perfectly valid.

Kitten heeled shoes

These shoes are an alternative to stilettos, but with a low heel. In fact, you will recognize Kitten shoes by their low, thin heel appearance. Sometimes they even have straps and other embellishments that make them look very elegant.

They are ideal for a formal look at work without sacrificing comfort, which prevents fatigue and discomfort. However, keep in mind that it is a very thin heel, so you will need to have enough balance and not put your foot where it shouldn't.

Shoes with square heel

Over the years, heels have not stopped evolving, offering different shapes and looks. In this case, these square-toed heels are perfect for girls who are not able to walk in conventional heels.

They are characterized by having a thick heel without a front platform . They are perfect to wear in informal and work situations, to add beauty to the foot and stylize the figure. Best of all, they are practically not in the way, so you can wear them for many more hours without complications.

If you don't know how to walk in conventional heels, they are definitely perfect. You can also find them open-toed if you prefer.

High heel boots

High heel boots and ankle boots are super trendy . They usually have a square or wide heel, around 5 cm. You can find them higher and also lower, depending on what you are looking for.

High heel boots are the perfect alternative to high heels in winter, so you can keep your feet warm and cozy. They also add a touch of sophistication to your looks.

Wedge shoes

Another type of heel that you will find in our shoe store is wedge shoes. They are very popular during the summer.
