There will always be people who will profess that they can wear their five inch heels all day, run for the train in them, probably go to the gym in them too. And you've probably seen them changing into their flats round the corner from the office too. Fact is, no matter how expensive or well made your shoes are, five inch heels aren't the most practical for day to day wear. 

Luckily there has been a general shift in the shoe world towards lower heels - we're going right back, rebelling against the millennial trend for platform court shoes back to (whisper it) the kitten heel. Except we're not calling it a kitten heel any more, that's too 90s, we're calling them low heels or micro heels, and they're great for everyday wear - no flats in the bag, just a manageable heel that you can keep on all day.

So view the gallery for 50 of our favourite mid-height shoes - heels that you will actually be able to wear all day long.
