Braided raffia gives the Ocean Ave its texture, and a 3-inch block heel on a 1.5-inch platform gives it the lift — without the wobble of a stiletto. Dual straps hold your foot steady across the cognac vegan upper, and a padded insole means you can actually stay on your feet through a long summer evening.
