A block heel is the one you actually wear. High enough to lift and lengthen, squared and low enough to stay steady on a pavement — the heel that carries you through a full day rather than the one you carry home in your hand. Ours is a clean court shoe on a 6cm squared block, cut with a softly rounded toe and a low topline that flatters the foot and keeps the whole thing elegant and uncomplicated.
Two of the three come in our signature Italian vegan nubuck — a finely brushed vegan suede with a soft, dry hand feel and real depth of colour. There's a deep wine, warm and a little dressy, the shade that comes into its own from autumn onwards, and a black that's the quiet workhorse, at home with everything. For a sharper, more polished finish, the same shape comes in smooth black — cleaner-lined and a touch more formal.
This is a genuinely useful shoe to style. The wine suede is lovely against camel and grey, under a midi dress or with tailored trousers and opaque tights when the weather turns. The black suede softens tailoring and dresses down as easily as up — jeans, a slip skirt, cropped trousers. And the smooth black is the put-together option, finishing a suit or a workwear look without a second thought.
Underfoot they're built to be worn, not endured: a slim TR outsole with a fine ribbed tread for grip, running up into the squared block heel, and inside a cushioned layered insole with a soft memory-foam top layer for comfort through the day. A soft Portuguese vegan suede lining keeps them comfortable against the foot.
- Upper
- Italian vegan nubuck (100% PU) – one of the finest vegan suedes you can get, Ecolabel certified with a soft, luxurious feel
- Lining
- Portuguese vegan suede (100% PU) – soft and comfortable against the foot, with a breathable suede texture that helps keep feet fresh
- Insole
- Cushioned layered insole – a soft memory foam top layer over a recycled PU base (20% recycled PU) cut to fit the shoe
- Outsole
- A slim TR outsole with a fine ribbed tread for grip, running up into a squared block heel that's covered in the upper so it reads as one piece with the shoe. The tread's cut into the ball and heel where you need it and left clean elsewhere, so it grips without looking heavy, and a WVS emboss is set into the sole."
- Shank
- Steel shank for stability and support through the arch
- Construction
- Mounted (cemented) construction – the upper is lasted to shape and the outsole bonded directly underneath. The most widely used construction method in footwear, it gives a clean, flexible build, though the outsole isn't easily resoled
- Water Resistance
- Vegan Leather – Water-resistant for everyday wear – keeps you dry in rain, puddles, wet streets, and most winter conditions. Just avoid heavy saturation or full submersion. | Vegan Suede – Not water-resistant – vegan suede will soak through in rain, though it won't mark or spoil when wet. Best kept for dry days, and treat with a waterproofing spray if you want some protection.

I love most of the shoes from Will’s London, but I can’t recommend these block heels. I bought them for an event and couldn’t even wear them through the whole night. Sizing seems to be off from my normal sizing at Will’s too, slightly tighter with these shoes.
Loved the look of the shoes but all of the reviews said that they ran big and to order a size down so I did - and they do seem to run big but for me I think 1/2 size would have been fine, ordering a size down they were much too tight and had to return them. Unfortunately they aren't available in the 1/2 size I would need so couldn't replace them. Disappointed because they looked nice.
Love my shoes, they are so well made, flattering, beautiful red wine colour exactly as shown in the website, the materials seem to be of high quality. They look elegant, fit nicely with formal dresses, I got many compliments and what I most like is to boast how vegan shoes can be of such high quality and design, not at all ugly, cheap "plastic shoes" as many prejudiced people use to believe
Die besten veganen Pumps die ich je kaufen konnte. Bequem, schick passen zum Anzug, zum Kleid, einfach zu allem. Sehr gut verarbeitet, nicht von echtem Leder zu unterscheiden. Ich wünschte nur es gäbe sie in meiner Größe als glatte Version. Darauf warte ich seit Monaten.
For a long time I have been searching for this type of shoe: style & surface, pure perfection! Only I am by now waiting almost a year for my size (40/41) to be available again so I can buy at least two pairs to keep, for I have never had such elegant shoes to fit my business style dresses. Please make them available again!!!
