4 1/2 inch heel in medium width. This is a great fitting shoe and on a 4 1/2 inch heel you'd be surprised how comfortable this shoe really is. This style has a full heel cup connected side to side with a mary jane strap that is accented with a tiny woven braid. The same matching braid is featured on the vamp. Great colors too! The rich turquoise is a pleasure to find as well as to wear.
