The Ankle-Wrap Wedge in Tan Italian Leather
The Ankle-Wrap Wedge brings a Grecian-inspired silhouette into everyday wear: tan Italian leather straps that wrap up to the ankle, set on a 75mm cork-covered wedge sole. The wrap gives a customisable fit and support, while the cork wedge delivers height without the fatigue of a stiletto.
Why It Works
The Ankle-Wrap Wedge works because it gives you the height of a heel with the footprint and stability of a wedge. The tan leather straps wrap up to the ankle, so the fit can be adjusted to your foot and the ankle feels supported with every step. The cork-covered 75mm wedge distributes weight evenly, which is why it stays comfortable far longer than a slim stiletto. Add the Grecian-inspired silhouette and it reads summery and considered rather than plain. It is this comfort-and-height balance that keeps wedges rising across both UK and US search interest.

The Craft
SOOS HEELS works exclusively with full-grain Italian leather and makes every pair in our Tuscan workshop. The tan leather straps are cut by hand, and the 75mm wedge is covered in cork and assembled in-house so the pitch stays true to the last. Straps are finished and fitted by hand for a clean, even wrap around the ankle.
Styling
The ankle wrap makes a natural partner for breezy hemlines – try a midi dress, wide linen trousers or cropped denim so the wrap stays on show. Tan is an easy warm neutral, so it layers well with white, cream and olive. If you are comparing open silhouettes, our comparison guide is a useful starting point, and the buyer’s guide covers fit and sizing. For a lower, slip-on option, see the Backless Loafer Mule and the Quilted Smoking Slipper. Availability is confirmed through our enquiry page.
