I bought these for a meeting and wore them four times. Heel height is 4.5 cm. These are excellent pumps that can be used in a wide range of situations, from the office to special occasions, and are designed with functionality in mind. The gold metallic parts on the heel give them a feminine and elegant finish. They have cushioning in the toe area and insole to provide a comfortable feel, and cushioning in the heel to improve the fit and make them less likely to cause foot pain.
