What are your favourite comfort + quality high heel brands?

I like occasionally to wear heels but find them super uncomfortable! Are there any brands that are known for high quality + comfort? And foot health etc. I don't want to get bunions! When I do wear them, I tend to wear block heels with a bit of a platform, and not reallllly much higher than 2.5 inches or so.

Happy to spend a bit more if the comfort + quality is genuinely there.

LK Bennett make quality shoes, that are reasonably comfortable. Their 3 to 4 inch stiletto court shoes are easy to walk in and more comfortable than some lower block heels by other manufacturers.
For 'everyday' wear, including supermarket shopping etc, Marks and Spencer 3 inch court shoes are great too. Since being 'vegan friendly', the quality of the materials has dropped significantly, so the new ones aren't as comfortable as my older ones.

Dorothy Perkins ones are OK too, with a wider range of colours and heel heights. I've never had a problem with bunions or back pain from wearing heels and still attract admiring looks from people of various ages.
I've tried shoes on in places like New Look and Primark and although they look nice when they're new, they are uncomfortable and get marked and damaged easily. I would steer away from buying stilettos in shoos like these (although I do buy other clothes and flat shoes from them).
