The Stella Platform runs true to size, so we recommend ordering based on your usual US size. If you are between sizes or widths, we recommend going up in size.

Medium width is considered standard, so if you generally find standard widths comfortable in other shoes, we suggest taking a Medium. However, if you find that other shoes often pinch or feel too tight around the ball of your foot, the Wide is a fantastic option to try. It is made on a combination last, with the toe box being the only area that is wider (it's also a great option to try if you have bunions). The Narrow will be more narrow throughout the entirety of the shoes; it's a good option if you find your foot frequently slips or feels insecure in a standard width.

Ideally, the straps at the front of your foot should feel fitted but not too snug when you first put them on. The back straps are not designed to fit entirely flush against your ankle and heel so that they are comfortable as you move and walk.

The Stella Platforms are made from a soft patent leather. We recommend avoiding exposure to water and rain, but patent leather is more durable than nappa leather. To maintain the sheen and finish over time, you can use a quality leather lotion.

The Stella Platform has a comparable fit to the Platform Sandal and City Sandal.
