Joan Oloff makes the comfiest heels I've ever worn. The arch support embedded in the insole makes them a pleasure to wear. Sadly these 8.5's are just a bit too small for my size 9 feet. Almond pointed closed toe Short stiletto / kitten heel 2 1/2 inch heel (63mm)* Footbed including point is 10.0 inches. Black soft shiny patent leather Leather upper, outsole, & insole. Callie’s 55mm tapered kitten heel is purring with perfection. Handcrafted with timeless elegance and walkability in an ever-essential equilibrium, Callie is made for the woman on the move. Artisan handcrafted with a luxurious seamless upper & our patented insole technology Podiatrist-designed insole provides arch support, even weight distribution, shock absorption and off-loads pressure on the ball of the foot. Antimicrobial lining on the interior of the shoe Leather outsole with a slip-resistant rubber plug under the ball of the foot Never worn! * The brand says this shoe is 55mm (2 1/4 inches) but it's slightly longer when I measured the maximum distance of the heel
