FAQs
What is the heel height of the Charlize heels?
The Charlize heels feature a block heel height of 12.7 cm (approximately 5 inches).
What material are these shoes made of?
The upper material of the Steve Madden Charlize heels is made of satin.
How do I adjust the fit of the shoe?
The shoes have an adjustable buckle closure around the ankle strap, allowing you to customize the fit.
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
Due to the high heel height and delicate satin material, these shoes are primarily recommended for special occasions and evening wear rather than continuous daily use.
How should I clean the satin material?
Gently wipe the satin with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid soaking the material and test any cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
What colors are available?
This specific guide refers to the Purple colorway, which features a pink and fuchsia design.
Can the platform help with comfort?
Yes, the multi-layered platform sole helps to reduce the effective pitch of the high heel, which can make them feel more comfortable to walk in compared to a shoe without a platform.
Troubleshooting
Ankle strap is too loose or too tight
Adjust the buckle to the nearest hole to find a secure yet comfortable fit. If the strap is still not fitting correctly, consider consulting a cobbler for potential alterations.
Satin material appears scuffed or dirty
Attempt to gently clean the affected area with a dry, soft brush to remove surface dust. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and blot carefully. Avoid rubbing, which can spread the stain or damage the satin fibers.
Heel feels unstable
Ensure you are walking on stable, flat surfaces. Practice walking in the heels in a safe environment before wearing them to an event. The block heel provides more stability than a stiletto, but still requires careful balance.

Care:
