Types

  • Angle heel – "the surface of the base of the heel is straight until reaching the waistline, and it looks like the shape of the Korean letter ¬"
  • Annabelle – 7-cm platform heel
  • Bar style – had jewelry or other decorative aspects to go along with flapper culture.
  • Continental heel – 7.5 mm, with the upper part of the chest of the heel spreading towards the center of the shoe.
  • Cromwell shoe – based on Oliver Cromwell with heel up to 170 mm (6.5 in).
  • Cuban heel – similar to the continental heel, but not curved, generally medium height
  • New Look in 1947 – a slim, elegant heel, newly created by putting steel in the heel. This enabled the heel to be skinny without snapping.
  • Pantaloon heel – "similar to pantaloon pants: the top lift part of the heel is spread out as it extends to the bottom part of the heel, and the waistline of the heel curves inward naturally."
  • Pinet heel – straight and skinny
  • Setback heel – similar to the continental heel, but the surface of the back of the heel is straight, forming a right angle.
  • Stacked heel – usually layers of leather 5 mm thick stacked together and trimmed to match the shape of the heel. These are commonly known as block heels.
  • Stiletto – tall, skinny heel; first mentioned in a newspaper in September 1953.
  • Wedges – popularized by Salvatore Ferragamo, who introduced this in the Italian market in the late 1930s.
