As you refresh your spring wardrobe, add a pair of wedge sandals to your shopping list. These shoes are having a comeback and becoming as a trending shoe for spring and summer. In addition, these sandals come in a variety of heights.

Are Wedge Sandals Comfortable to Walk In?

The heel part of a wedge sandal helps to distribute your body weight over the entire underside of the foot. You won’t feel as much pressure on the ball of your foot while you’re walking.

Best Ankle Support

Dr. Scholl’s Sheena Wedge Sandal keeps your ankle stable in 2.5-inch heels. There’s a slight dip in the heel that cups your foot to prevent you from sliding around. There also are thick straps that cross over the top of the ankle and secure around the sides. Your ankle won’t budge as you walk. Shop two colors in US women’s sizes 6 to 11.
