Black Dress Work Shoes Womens 2 Inch Heels

Misc.

A great pair of heels will (literally) elevate your outfit, but sometimes the pain caused by an uncomfortable pair just isn't worth it. If you've ever worn high heels that left your feet sore and bruised for days after, then it's easy to swear them off for good. But, according to experts, not all shoes are created equal. There are plenty of comfortable heels out there, made by designers who value functionality as much as fashion.

If you're looking to expand your comfortable heel collection, there are a few general attributes to focus on, according to licensed physical and exercise therapist and running expert Randy Brangman, who suggests looking for heels based on your specific foot issues or concerns. "For bunions, aim for a soft and round toe design that alleviates pressures in the front," Brangman tells Woman's Day. "For those who have high arches, look for a shoe with rubberized cushioning to absorb the shock placed on the outside of your feet. If you are flat-footed, then I recommend keeping your heels on the lower side, as a lack of arch will cause you harm over time."

Not sure where to start? Here are the most supportive heels, for all types of feet, that reviewers swear are as comfortable as they get:
