Soles for Souls
Platform Sandals
Three Heights, One Sole
Famolare platform sandals come in three sole profiles, Each one built on the same patented wavy rubber that's been absorbing shock and supporting the arch since 1969. GET THERE is the flatform: 1" platform, 1¾" heel, four-wave sole that rolls your foot naturally forward. HI THERE is the platform wedge: 1⅛" platform, 3¼" heel, same biomechanics at greater height. They all offer padded leather insoles, and recyclable rubber outsoles, handcrafted in North America.
The Wavy Sole, Why It Works
Most platform sandals stack height without thinking about what that does to your body. Famolare does the opposite. Every platform sole uses a four-wave sequence: wave one catches heel impact, wave two cushions the arch, wave three rolls you forward, wave four propels your next stride. The result is a shoe that feels surprisingly flat despite its height, no ankle fatigue, no ball-of-foot pressure. Pair that with a 100% leather upper that breathes and conforms to your foot over time, and you have a platform sandal built for full days, not photo opportunities.
FAQ
Questions About Our Shoes
What is the difference between GET THERE, HI THERE, and HI UP platforms?
GET THERE is Famolare's flatform sole: 1" platform and 1¾" heel for a gentle lift with all-day wearability. HI THERE is a platform wedge at 1⅛" platform and 3¼" heel, more presence, same comfort. HI UP is the tallest at 1" platform and 3½" heel, designed for occasions where you want real height without sacrificing the wavy sole's support.
Are Famolare platform sandals comfortable for walking?
Yes. The patented four-wave rubber sole is engineered specifically for walking, it absorbs heel impact, cushions the arch, and creates a natural rolling motion through each stride. Customers regularly wear Famolare platforms for city days, market days, and travel. The leather upper also softens and conforms to your foot over time.
Do Famolare platform sandals run true to size?
Generally yes. The leather upper and lining will shape to your foot over the first few wears. If you're between sizes or have a wider foot, sizing up half a size is recommended. Free returns are available for members in the USA.
