And would you be able to suggest me some alternatives? I need height and comfort for work. TIA!

Um....

How about just a block type heel?

I think most wedges are horrible.

What clothes are they to wear with?

Be careful with the block heel, on small women they can look really clumpy.

Eek, no, they are awful.
However I've just bought Pods and loads of people hate them, but I love them, so if you really like them, get them.

huge clunky heels, that will produce the inelegant arse out waddle as seen on the catwalks.

not good.

I like the Fly ones, but then I like granny shoes but I think I’m rather outnumbered.

I would happily take suggestions... links?

These get good reviews;

The UGGs look nice; The Fly ones are..cough..not to my taste.

Well I love Fly shoes and boots and find them very comfortable. I think it’s because they’re really not actually that high in terms of the angle of your instep, once you take off the platform height.

The Fly shoes are ugly and look very orthopaedic.

What are you planning on wearing with them? They might work with a boiler suit in a mechanic/garage type environment.

Bit marmitey those. I know it's an oldies label but Hotter (Boutique collection) have height and great comfort.....no-one needs to know where you got them!

I'm not so sure about them in shoe style but I have several pairs of Fly London wedge boots as they're the only boots I can wear that don't aggravate my arthritic big toe. I'm sure this accolade will have you all rushing to buy some!

I really like the Toms.

Shudder Not envy

At all of them

I can't find any 'boutique' shoes or boots in the Hotter website

fwiw

I've really fallen out of love with FLY.

I have 3 pairs of boots - all with different style heels / soles a pair of shoes and 2 pairs of sandals.

All are faulty or didn't last a season. Those wedge heels go through really quickly and theres a cement block / stone inside which then rattles and scrapes. No way of resoling to prolong life.

I really like the FLY look but would never buy again...

Did you have look at the doc martens op? I really want some haha

I was thinking about this sort of thing

They are fairly hideous

Hi Martha I did thanks. I have a pair of Dr Martens (wedge shoe/boots) and they are lovely but very narrow for me.

Diddl I would look like I'm on fancy dress if I was to wear those... They look line dancing shoes to me...

There are nice, right?? www.shoeaholics.com/brands/women/miss-kg/silent-taupe-synthetic-miss-kg?sa_k=pgc&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&gclid=Cj0KCQjwnqzWBRC_ARIsABSMVTPc_PAyZEf_elqklqeCKqY9PSfq5YZzPKGds2-IZeyxxnrRbN6OudwaAvscEALw_wcB

I like them. I prefer the navy. I think on they'd prob look even better than in pic. I don't think they are granny at all

I had a pair like the one in the op. They looked nicer in person but were very broad fitting.

Yes...those and the UGGs are nice.
