One thing is for sure: I love shoes with height...but you won't catch me in just any ole’ pair. I need my shoes to feel like the icing on any outfit recipe—they can never feel basic. And while I prefer footwear that makes a statement, I need them to also be great for running around New York City. And no, you will not find me in a flat shoe—that's a rarity! What you will find me in are the most comfortable platform shoes in the universe. Yes, the universe! To me, no heels are more comfy than a pair of trusty platforms. What makes 'em so great is how they relieve the ball of your foot and take the pressure off the top of your toes and feet. Out of all the styles in my closet (and I have a lot of them), my platform shoes get the most wear, and are the most reliable for nights out on the town.

As someone who has routinely ended up hobbling around in painful shoes (Cue Taylor's, “It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me” lyrics)—I’ve finally learned my lesson and now opt for options that I can actually walk around in no matter how long the wear (and yes, that includes slippin' into the best walking sneakers when it's absolutely necessary). So I'm sayin' goodbye to long nights in the skinniest heels. Thankfully, platforms are just as flirty, and way more secure than your standard stiletto. Ahead, you'll find the ones that are worth your coin!

Our top picks for the most comfortable platform shoes of 2024:

See? What did I tell you? Swap a skinny pump for a platform pair instead, and you’ll be amazed how much more at ease you’ll be—especially, if you decide to stay out for that extra dirty martini.

Awaken your inner Barbie slash Bratz doll in a pair of sky high pumps. The ankle strap ensures you feel secure.
