Enzo Angiolini shoes: comfortable high heels. Seriously.
Posted on March 12, 2009 by Miss Britt in Shoes
Shoes: Enzo Angiolioni Magnify pumps
As a general rule of thumb, I couldn’t care less if my high heels are comfortable.
I have been known to wear shoes that give me blisters – even though they gave me blisters the last 10 times I wore them – simply because they are gorgeous.
When it comes to a great pair of high heels, comfort is last on the list of reasons to fall in love. I believe that if you look like a million bucks, there’s always more ibuprofen.
But some women are pussies. Seriously.
Some women insist on stomping around in flats and ignoring the transformative power that high heels have on every woman’s figure – simply because their feet hurt.
Nevermind that a pair of heels gives all women great legs even if you’re 50 lbs overweight. Nevermind that a pair of high heels makes even the flabbiest of asses look shapely and puts it back up where it’s supposed to be. (Yes, they do. Tina Turner legs and the backside of a 21 year old coed. Did you know that, crybaby pee pee pants?)
Oh, no. Some women trade hot legs and tight butts for mere comfort.
Ladies, you don’t have to choose between fashionable high heels and comfortable shoes anymore thanks to the genius of Enzo Angiolini.
These are my favorite pair of shoes. I got them last year from a friend of mine and was absolutely amazed at how comfortable they were. That is a 4 inch heel, my friends, and I can stand (and even walk!) in them for hours without even once having to chant the “mind over matter, beauty over pain” motto.
Enzo Angiolini Shoes are the chance for every women to benefit from high heels.
Even if you normally live in flip flops and sneakers (we’ll talk about that at a later date), you’ll be able to spend an evening in a pair of Enzo Angiolini shoes without crying.
Does it sounds like I’m begging? Weeping a little? I am. It kills me to know there are women out there who don’t own proper high heels – especially when there is an option like Enzo Angiolini that is affordable.
Oh yes. Did I forget to mention that? Enzo Angiolini shoes are not only some of the most comfortable high heels you’ll ever wear, they’re cheap. (And they’re a subdivision of Nine West so you know they’ll last forever, too.)
Hot. Cheap. And comfortable. You have no more excuses to neglect your legs and ass.
The pair I have is an older style and can be difficult to come by now. (I was able to find you a pair in a size 10 on EBay.) But there are plenty of new styles out with the same comfortable pedigree to.
My favorite shoes from the Enzo Angiolini line:
Enzo Angiolini Women’s Ailsa Flat $28.48 on Amazon
I’m not crazy about the little bow but I love that it’s a neutral, versatile shoe. Perfect if you don’t have a ton of high heels in your closet and need a pair that you can wear with anything.
Enzo Angiolini Women’s Grieta Mary Jane Pump $49.99 on Amazon.
Not all women like (or can pull off) a masculine looking shoe. I love these and think they would be great to wear to an office. Or with glasses. (Think hot librarian.)
Enzo Angiolini Give $54.95 on Amazon
Every woman should own at least one pair of red heels. They are almost as versatile as black and wickedly sexy. I wear mine with black (black dress, black pants, black skirt – whatever) or jeans and a white top. Red high heels are the fastest way to sexy without showing your boobs.
ENZO ANGIOLINI Tricks New Heels Pumps Brown Womens $40 on Amazon
Be still my heart. I’m wearing a flat version of these as I write this and I believe I will have a new favorite pair of Enzo Angiolini shoes just as soon as UPS can get these beautiful babies to me.
That gives you a good start. Please, for the love of all things holy and beautiful, get yourself a pair of comfortable high heels. You cannot go wrong with a pair of Enzo Angiolini shoes – even if you’ve sworn off high heels years ago, these will make you a believer.

I’ve never been one for high heels for two reasons. 1) my feet slip out of everything that is a slip on. It is so ridiculous hard to find me a pair of slip in shoes that this doesn’t happen. 2) at 5’9 I really don’t want a pair of high heels that make me taller than I am.
But does that stop me from buying them. No, no it doesn’t.
I think I know what I’m spending my next paycheck on.
@Sarah, oh my gosh, you’re 5’9! So? Do you know how many super models are that tall and TALLER and wear heels?? That means you probably have stunningly long legs!
I KNEW it was shoes!!!!
A major reason these are comfy is the design–when the heel is tucked up under like that your weight is carried more on your heel than on the ball.
Plus Enzos are just made well even thought they can be had for not that much moola.
And I can verify that they last and last and last.
@Turnbaby, you changed my life with those shoes, woman. And hopefully we will spread the good here today. LOL
Love some cute/sexy heels. Once I don’t have to chase my 3yr old so much I’m buying some new pairs – thanks for all the suggestions.
@Kelly, have you seen the new show Running in Heels?
LOVE these shoes! I need cute heels that come in a size 11….Enzos never cease to disappoint. I just wish my feet weren’t so damn wide…
@Robin, You and I have the same damn feet and it’s a bitch to find a good pair of heels with wide big feet! I did find a pair of Nine West stilettos that I LOVE!
Now though I have to go look at these Enzos! Yay for new shoes in big sizes!
@Robin, I have wide feet too. I think that’s part of the reason I had to get used to pain early on. Wide and fat make it difficult to find a good fit. LOL
i love high heels. just not peep toe shoes.
although those hot librarian ones are thisclose to changing my mind. it almost pains me that i find them “cute.”
@hello haha narf, which is odd because you ALWAYS have a pedicure to show off.
@Miss Britt,
my pedicures look fabulous in my flip flops!
(when you come to my house you will understand that i love heels. my problem is i have a hundred all in black!)
I must have THOSE… the Mary Jane pumps… no, really I must. Even when I was extremely overweight, I wore heels. And dammit I had nice legs. No, really I did. I have pictures to prove it. This proves YOUR point, Britt, that heels shold be worn by all (except straight men). It makes for nice legs. And a firm tush. Maybe your mom would buy me a pair? Does she ever just buy strangers off the internet things?
@Lin, my mom doesn’t even by ME shoes, unfortunately.
Love them all.
You’ve touched on my weakness. (I am torn between the red ones – even though I already have red heels – and the leopard.)
@Sybil Law, ME TOO!!!!!
A four inch heel would make me 6’2″ tall. As I can already describe the specific male pattern baldness going on for at least half the men I know (who are all 5’11″ – in their own heads) I wear flats or teeny heels and glare at the petite, beautiful women with the really, really cute shoes and great legs.
@Mindee@ourfrontdoor.us, I so wish more women would embrace their height.
Okay, I love all of your selections. I’ve heard of Enzo Angiolini but I didn’t know it was a division of Nine West. Ooooh.
@steen, I actually didn’t either at first. And I do so love Nine West. I know that’s not as cool as saying “I do so love Jimmy Choos” – but I’ve yet to develop a Jimmy Choose budget.
I LOVE Enzo Angiolini shoes. They make some of the most awesome summer sandals as well as heels.
Those are all beautiful shoes, although the peep toes totally kill the shoe for me. Not a big fan.
@Julie, I think today is the first day I have EVER heard anyone say they didn’t like peep toes – and you’re the second!
Since you know stuff about high heels, can you tell me this? Why is it that when I try to walk in high heels, my foot always slips out? I have a closet full of shoes I can not wear. Do I just need to buy the ones with a strap to hold my foot in place? You showed some awesome ones, so I may have to look in to that.
@radioactive tori, I would guess you’re buying the wrong size, actually. I’d try a half size smaller and if it’s pinching you might need a half size smaller in a wide. But if it’s easier – get a strap.
I LOVE the Mary Jane pumps! I will definitely have to keep my eye out for some of those, or, just go to Amazon, which is like, my favorite place to shop.
@Robina, I love Amazon because it’s fast – almost as good as instant gratification – and easy to return if I change my mind. LOL
ok, I’m going to trust you and partake…too good to pass up. I thought they would $300 at least
@leendaluu, good luck!! Let me know how they work out for you!!!
Thanks so much for this Britt- cause this post absolutely spoke to me. I am in fact one of those women who won’t wear heels cause I’m a baby suck and can’t handle the pain.
Yet I do love love love them. I’m totally going to look these up and get them shipped post-haste!
xo
@Princess of the Universe, you won’t regret it! Promise!
Love the Enzo! How is that they can make heels comfortable and others cannot?
I need to build an outfit around those Mary Janes…
@Finn, I know, crazy right? I’m going to have to start being pickier about designers and brands, I think.
omg. I am in love.
I just can’t decide if its with you, for telling me about these shoes, or that Enzo guy for making them. ::sigh::
Now – are they true to size? Like, if I normally wear a 7.5, then order a 7.5 or do they run small or big? Please tell me so I can get my hands on the hot librarian and red heels asap. kthnxbai
@Sheila (Charm School Reject), they run true. I am a size 7.5 and that’s what these are (I’m wearing them now) and they fit perfectly.
P.S. My husband will live to regret me ever reading this post.
Now – can you tell me how you feel about Anne Klein’s heels because I fell in love with these on accident.
http://www.amazon.com/AK-Anne-Klein-Womens-Jules/dp/B0018L7RZQ/ref=pd_sbs_shoe_2
@Sheila (Charm School Reject), I have one pair of Anne Klein heels that actually are pretty comfortable too. I just got them about 6 weeks ago so haven’t worn them tons yet. (And those are awesome, by the way!)
OK, so because of your glowing recommendation, I just bought a pair from Zappos to wear on my cruise trip !!!!
I hope they fit !! I’ll send you a pic when they arrive…..
Thanks !
@Kim, can’t wait to see them!!
(I should have looked – were they cheaper on Zappos?)
@Miss Britt, yes, they were a bit cheaper on Zappos !!
I love them !! BUT OMG they are high….if I don’t go flying over the side of the ship and end up on Nancy Grace’s missing persons show it will be a miracle !!
Seriously comfortable shoes with an 4 inch heel? I just can’t believe it. I stopped wasting hundreds of dollars long ago on high heals. Besides the fact they are NEVER comfortable – I don’t feel like looking like an amazon. I’m 5’10 and 1-2 inch is good enough for me. But if shoes came back with a money back guarentee I’d def give these a try – they are GORGEOUS!!
@Cheri, you can always return shoes girl, are you kidding?
@Miss Britt,
You can’t return shoes after they are worn and the problems don’t arise until I’ve worn them a few hours. Otherwise I wouldn’t have wasted all that moo-la. Doh! lol
Oh and one more thing – why do women’s shoes never come in 10 1/2?? Yes I have big feet
lol
@Cheri, I can’t EVER find a 7 1/2. I think it’s the 1/2 size that is doing us in.
@Miss Britt,
Yes 1/2 size is annoying although I did check out that link you gave and it does show 10.5 – now if I could just find a 2 inch heel instead of a 3.5-4.
THEMS IS SEXIN SHOES!!!!
@metalmom, yes ma’am!
You’re one of only about 27 people on earth who understand the phrase is “couldn’t care less.”
That stopped me in my tracks faster than the sexy shoes did.
I must confess, however, that I am a total pussy when it comes to high heels. I wear them all the time, but I have several pair that have been worn only once or twice because they are too painful.
I do agree that Enzo shoes are incredibly comfy. I had a pair I loved so much that I had them re-soled and re-heeled twice.
@Lynn @ human, being, I think I’m starting to realize that instead of suffering for beauty – I should stick with the shoes that offer BOTH.
When I was young and stupid I just didn’t understand it was possible.
i’m one of those women who do the comfort vs beauty..i also DON’T wear makeup on a daily basis, do my hair (just comb it when i get up) or wear much beyond jeans, yoga pants and baggy pj bottoms…i’m a college student for life! well, no, i just dress like one! the red ones ARE sexy, however i also WON’T buy shoes unless i can try them on first, i have a weird fit to my feet..i DO own some heels by the way, and they are all great, they just don’t see the light of day (or the streetlights for that matter) very often at all…i usually have to dust them off *gasp* in order to wear them…
@Jamie, I don’t buy shoes online either unless typically unless I know the designer and how they fit me.
I learned THAT lesson the hard way.
@Miss Britt, being a full time stay at home mom who homeschools, i don’t have much reason at all to dress more than what is “socially acceptable” when i go out of the house for things like doc appts for the kids and grocery shopping…having a job where i would have to “dress up” sounds so nice (well for my closet at least) but so time consuming (to my sleep schedule)…but i will admit, those are some really nice shoes up there…and comfy 4 inch heels would make my feet happy and my body feel a bit taller and sexier…
I just had a mini-heart attack for the Enzo Angiolini Women’s Grieta Mary Jane Pump.
They don’t have my size. My credit card thanks Amazon for that.
@Angie [A Whole Lot of Nothing], hahahaha – your credit card has had a workout this week!
How can anyone not love a peep-toe??? I have probably 10 pair and I have NO reason to wear heels. LOL Thankfully being 4’11, I can wear any heel I want so a comfy 4″ heel sounds good to me!
@Erin, oh my THANK YOU! I thought I was losing my mind. Peep Toes are GORGEOUS!! LOL
I never learned to walk right in high heels, so I stick to flats. And usually my walking shoes. Or walking sandels. Or hiking boots.
Are you crying?
@Lynda, I am a little bit. LOL
Oh my god you posted shoe porn. I’m in love already.
Perhaps already on the agenda, but could you do a sexy boots review/information post?
