Customer photo review of Painless Block Heel+1
Shannon M.
I love these heels! They are surprisingly comfortable. I love the handy buckles and the add on bows. I was slightly disappointed only the stilettos come with the variation of ankle straps.

My husband has bought me two pairs after watching me try to walk with toes going numb and inevitably walking at a much slower pace due to this. My first pair was the Nude, after having no trouble at all he then bought me the black as well so I'd be covered for the full spring/summer season. These are incredibly versatile and i wish that the straps were like this on ALL HEELS!

The heels are higher than most heels I’ve worn and it was still surprisingly comfortable. The toe bar also was pretty comfortable and no worse than my regular flip flop. I also like how I will be able to change the top strap and how easy it is to unhook. The beige is a tiny more pink than I’d prefer but I otherwise thought it looked great. Looking forward to seeing some closed toe options!

I saw an ad for these on Instagram and decided to give them a try. I’ve always loved wearing heels, but after a short period of time they hurt my feet so badly. These shoes are surprisingly comfortable. Very stylish as well and really good quality. I love how the ankle strap can be changed out. I plan on buying another pair in the tan color, I wore these for several hours at a dinner event and had no foot pain or heel pain the entire night

These shoes are great the first week I wore them at 4 events -wedding -lunchon -embassy function -formal dinner A total of 28 hours in them that week they performed really well on lots of different surfaces. I walked, danced stood still for speeches. The customer service has been great.

I’m in love with these shoes. They are the most comfortable stilettos I’ve ever worn. I think Candace did an amazing job, and I hope she continues to make high quality shoes like these. Everything about the design of these was so well thought out for comfort. Mind you, you are in 4 inch stilettos (not slippers), but I wore these to the grocery store to test the comfort, and they were great. The between the toe strap is great, the slight platform, the heel cup dip, all of it. I also LOVE the an...

The shoe is amazing! It’s pretty comfortable, certainly more so that other stilettos. 100% leather, which is a must. The sandal like thing part takes the pressure off of your toes, keeps them from getting cut or rubbed raw from the toes strap. Comes with 4 interchangeable buckles?! I’ve never seen that before. Before this, I used to take a drill and add my own studs to shoes. Not anymore, it comes with studded… and OPTIONS. Because it comes in silver and gold! They even did a great/cool job with...

These shoes are so beautiful and well-made! Really minimalist, sexy, and way more comfortable than you’d expect from a heel this high! The entire footbed is padded, the soles are thick but do not look like a platform, and the toe post doesn’t hurt. The arch support is squishy and stops your feet from rolling in as you walk. They do run a bit narrow so ultimately they didn’t work for me. A nice detail is the buckle on the strap doesn’t need to be opened every time you wear it. You adjust that ...

I wore these shoes all day while working at my desk to get a sense of how comfortable they would be. I got up at the end of the day and I was still wearing heels after a mix of sitting and standing! Will get another pair in nude!

These shoes are the bomb! I haven’t been able to wear heels for many years due to multiple (more than 7) surgeries on my left foot. I was able to walk steadily in these and keep them on for the entire night of my company Christmas party!

Love! I was worried about sizing since sometimes I’m a 6.5 and sometimes a 7. Ordered the 6.5 after speaking with Customer Support who assured me of an ez exchange policy but no need! They fit like a dream. Great arch support too! The different ankle straps are a plus and such a genius way to clip them, no fumbling to get them fastened! I’ll be ordering another pair in black!

I love these heels because they make me so much taller and they don't kill my feet. Also, they are easier to walk in than traditional stilettos. My bf loves them. He kept saying how sexy they are. I would definitely recommend them.

These are beautiful and sexy shoes. I was comfortable wearing them for an evening with no issues. If you are used to stiletto height these bring additional comfort. I recommend!

Absolutely beautiful shoes, love the straps and how easy they are to adjust. The heels run true to size but you have to have the ankle strap tight in order to walk and dance. I wore these for the first time to the wedding and then to the reception, a total of 8 hours before I had to take them off. Pretty good for a 59 year old! :)

The most wonderful sandals ever. I was so excited to get them and even the way they were packed in the box. That's how things used to come and it is nice to see that you think as a company when you open them up it's like my birthday surprized.

They are perfect. Love the fit and color. I wore them the same day I got them and danced the evening away in them. I’m buying another pair in black!!

Sleek, classy, sexy, AND comfortable! My favorite feature on my Protege heels is the toe post. My feet are quite narrow and I’ve always had a problem with them slipping out the front of other stilettos. I highly recommend this product for anyone who experiences similar issues, or just anyone with sense and style in general. ;)

Absolutely believe in the hype! I attended many high end events yearly. By the end of the night, heals are in everyone’s hands. Facebook knew I had a ball coming up, so this add was popping up daily. I went for it. Thank goodness I did. I was walking on unicorn fart clouds all night. I was the ONLY person who left wearing heals!

Part of me wanted it to just be hype. Then I wouldn't need them in nude and white. My bank account would've preferred that I'm sure. But too bad. I went to an open house for a local business walked around on cement floor and ran a couple errands and easy to walk and feet didn't hurt at all.

I absolutely love these heels! Designed perfectly and the pad inside makes it so comfortable and my toes don't slide forward out of my heels ! Really easy to put on & off & I love the options to change my straps to go from the office to evening adding an edge to them :). Finally perfected, of course by a woman, nicely done ! Thank you !

5/5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The most comfortable stilettos in my shoe collections. Very flattering that my sister who never wears heels wanted to give it a try..! The strap also has just the right amount of rubber band by the ankle clasp for mobility. All around the best summer date night/brunch outfit! 🙌🏻😍

After the first night out….I LOVE THEM and I will definitely be ordering them in all the colors! A little higher heel than I’d realized (hot!) but still super comfortable and I was able to dance in them the first night with zero blisters!

I ordered a pair of the tan stilettos for my engagement party and LOVED them! They're so easy to walk in and I wore them WAY beyond the amount of time I can generally tolerate from stilettos. I love that I can wear high, sexy stilettos again without being in agony within 10 minutes! I'll be purchasing the black pair in the future. Customer service has also been awesome!

Super comfortable. Wore them two days in a row to an evening black tie and then a day time brunch. Three people asked for the link. Love them!

I normally wear size 9.5, but the 9.5 was slightly too big. Size 9 might fit, but I'm concerned that it won't fit the width of my toes. My feet are a M every except around my toes which are wide. Despite the slightly small fit around my toes, the shoes seem relatively comfortable. I love the toe post and didn't even feel it despite being someone with sensory issues. I really wish there was a close-toed heel in nude though!

I've been needing the perfect LBS- and finally found it! The post in the toe strap feels so secure and stable. The footbed was totally comfortable- I am very pregnant and was able to keep them on all night for a wedding!

I had to exchange for a smaller size and the customer service was easy and fast to get a replacement. I can say they seem comfortable compared to my other heels and can't wait to try them out.

I got the tan stilettos and wear them for all events and work trade shows. Loved them so much I decided to buy the black thick heel pair and they are amazing! All you need for heels! Might buy the white ones next :)

I was really impressed with the comfort level of the shoe. They are much more comfortable than any of the heels I normally wear at work. However, I was disappointed that they arrived with a scratch on the leather (photo attached). I needed to wear them for an event so I didn’t want to go through the hassle of shipping/exchanging them for a new pair. I’m unsure about the quality of the leather. I definitely want to see how they hold up before buying another pair.

Second pair of the painless stilettos. Loved the first pair, had to get another color. The balance in these tall heeled shoes is unmatched. I danced and danced at a recent wedding, and never stumbled or felt unsupported. Even had one of the bridesmaids ask me what shoes I was wearing. Great design - please make more styles!

I actually had to return these because they were 1/2 inch too high for me to be able to walk without issue. However, they are so beautiful, comfortable if they fit right, and the perfect shoe to have in your wardrobe. I was so bummed out to have to return them, but I can assure you that if you can walk in a 3 1/2 inch heel, you would not regret purchasing these! Get nude and black and you can throw the rest of your dress shoes away!!

I am so impressed with this style and being so comfortable especially being a 4 inch heel. I was able to wear these shoes for six hours straight, which included a ton of walking/standing with minimal discomfort at the end of that six hours which I call a huge win. Usually I’m walking barefoot one hour into the night when I try and wear 4 inch heels . These shoes look so Classy and elegant and the block heel is super comfortable. One thing I don’t think people understand from looking at the pict...

These were comfortable (even though heels usually always hurt my feet). I couldn’t believe that I could walk in them just fine. I’m just upset that I have to send them back because they’re too narrow for me. My toes hang off the side of the shoe (and yet somehow, it’s still comfortable! It just doesn’t look good)

I purchased the nude ones for a wedding in 2022, and spent the entire day and night dancing not having to take them off until about 7 hours in. I loved them so much I just ordered the black ones, and threw out all of my old heels, I can't wear anything else!
