Another awesome sandal in Art's lineup, the Brighton 1578 is a gorgeous wedge sandal that does not sacrifice comfort for a bit of height. Wonderfully colourful leather and nubuck uppers are lined with a soft microfibre that envelops the foot, while the adjustable buckle over the in-step helps customize the fit. The chunky rubber wedge sole adds some height (just shy of 2"), but that is mostly offset by the ~1.25" platform under the toes. All that means is you get some extra height without feeling like you are going to fall over.

Available at Glebe Trotters.
