11 cm or 6 cm heels? Comfort vs. height – what should you choose?

Thinking of buying 11 cm heels, but already imagining the foot pain? We get it – high heels look amazing, but they’re not always practical. That’s why we want to show you an alternative: elegant 6 cm pumps that still turn heads without punishing your feet.

Do you really need 11 cm?

Sure, high heels elongate the legs, lift your posture and add confidence. But let’s be honest – 11 cm is a lot. Especially for standing events, walking long distances or a full workday. Unless you're a heel pro, it's probably not the best everyday choice.

Meet MOIRA – comfort you can see

Our MOIRA pumps offer the perfect balance. With a 6 cm heel, they’re high enough to feel feminine, but still comfortable for daily wear. Their sleek shape makes the heel look taller than it is, and the soft natural leather adapts to your foot for all-day comfort. Plus, the elastic back strap makes them easy to wear – no blisters, no fuss.

Why 6 cm wins in real life

• More comfort – no sore feet after a few hours.
• Better balance – safer on uneven ground.
• Versatile – great for work, casual events or nights out.
• Timeless style – they still look classy and elegant.

Take care of your heels

Even the comfiest shoes need love. Clean your leather pumps with a gentle product and apply protective spray regularly. In our store, you’ll find everything you need to care for your favorite shoes.

Summary – it’s not all about height

Yes, 11 cm heels are glamorous – but not always the best choice. If you want style and comfort in one pair, give 6 cm a try. Our MOIRA pumps prove that you don’t need sky-high heels to look stunning and feel great.
