Gwen | Vegan Leather Mary Jane Block Heel

The heel that looks like a vintage find and works like a medical decision.

The Gwen is a low block heel Mary Jane in smooth leather with a single buckle strap across the instep, a delicate teardrop cutout at the inner side that gives it an old-world, handcrafted quality, and a rounded toe that sits comfortably without compression. Underneath: an orthopedic footbed with arch support that addresses plantar fasciitis, heel pain, flat feet, and the knee and back ache that builds through a full day on hard floors. Non-slip rubber outsole. It looks like something from a Parisian side street. It feels like something your podiatrist would approve of.

Passed weekday, weekend, and evening across all four colorways — linen dress to fall dinner to every outfit that needed one more considered thing.

• Vintage buckle strap with teardrop cutout at the inner side reads as a style choice — the old-world detail that keeps this from ever reading sensible.

• Low wide-base block heel distributes weight evenly across the full heel strike — the structural reason this heel stays comfortable where a stiletto doesn't.

• Orthopedic footbed with arch support reduces strain on the plantar fascia, heel, and ankle through extended standing and walking on hard surfaces.

• Four colorways: Navy, Red, Brown, Black
