Wedge shoes are considered heaven-sent by millions of women across the world. This type of shoe design is considered the best compromise between comfort and fashion-a woman can still enjoy the height advantage of a high-heel shoe, with more stability and coverage. Of course, many people still recall the 1970's as the period when wedge shoes became all the rage, along with other types of large, chunky towering shoes such as platforms. However, these days, designs have definitely become more streamlined and modern.

All wedge shoes are primarily characterized by a thick heel that usually is made from one piece of material. It spans the entire length of the shoe, with a steeper or higher angle as it approaches the heel from the toe. They still come in a variety of designs and variations, though. There are wedge shoes with extremely high heels, usually from three to five inches total. The overall height of a wearer increases considerably compared to wearing stilettos, because a wedge also adds height to the toe area with its additional platform. However, there are also some wedge designs that are moderate in height. The materials used also vary. One of the most popular types of wedge shoes are those with soles made of cork. These are lightweight and very comfortable. They are usually worn during summer or spring, for a more casual look.

There are also some types or designs of wedge shoes that can be used for formal occasions, such as those with plastic or heels. Because the sole and heel are made of transparent material, the shoe gives the illusion that the wearer is floating on air. This type of shoe is also very versatile since it is virtually colorless. It can be worn with any color dress and matched with any type of accessories. There are also wedge shoes with soles made of rubber or wood.

Wedge shoes are fun to play around with when mixing and matching different outfits and articles of clothing. For instance, a nice billowy peasant dress or skirt would look great paired with a platform wedge made of cork, or an espadrille-type of wedge. On the other hand, slim pants can be paired with a nice pair of moderately high wedges, preferably made of leather or fabric.
