MED Platform Wedge Sandal
The MED is the platform wedge sandal that started it all, and it remains our all-time bestseller for good reason. With its wide crisscross elastic straps and classic cork-like sole, the MED delivers the perfect balance of fashion and comfort for every occasion.
The easy slide-on design stays securely in place thanks to a stretchy slingback strap, while the platform adds just the right amount of height without the forward pitch of a traditional heel. At approximately 2 3/4 inches with a 1-inch platform, the MED gives you a flattering lift that still feels grounded and stable.
The elastic upper stretches to accommodate a range of foot widths, making the MED a favorite among women looking for bunion-friendly footwear that doesn't sacrifice style. The padded insole keeps you cushioned from morning to night, whether you're walking downtown cobblestones or heading out for cocktails.
Like all Charleston Shoe Co. favorites, the MED is fully machine washable. Toss them in after a long weekend and they come out looking like new. No fuss, no special care required.
Available in a range of colors from classic neutrals to bold seasonal shades, the MED is the versatile platform wedge you'll reach for again and again. Made in Mexico with the quality craftsmanship Charleston Shoe Co. is known for.
