What role does the 1.5cm hidden heel mentioned in the boots description play?
After seeing the hidden heel measurement written in the boots product details, you might wonder what kind of difference the visible heel and the inner hidden heel actually make when worn.
It is a construction that keeps the visible heel low while adding both a natural height-increasing effect and stable cushioning when worn.
It is a heel construction made with a total height of 4cm[1]. In KHIHO's STERA BELTED MID BOOTS / BLACK, 1.5cm of the total heel is filled with an inner hidden heel that is not visible from the outside[2].
Adding a hidden heel to footwear is mainly used when considering both the exterior proportions and foot comfort. It reduces the clunkiness that occurs when only raising the outer heel, keeping the silhouette sleek, while moderately lifting the heel from the inside to naturally shape the ankle line. As an additional cushioning layer is added to the heel base, it also helps disperse the impact transmitted from the ground when walking.
hmmm, it is a practical detail that displays an unobtrusive heel height from the outside while providing appropriate height and wearing comfort when worn.
The detailed material of the insole applied to the hidden heel or whether it is removable has not yet been confirmed.
