Comfortable platform sneakers never cease to make their way into the closets and carts of fashion’s most tuned-in consumers. Not only do they go with nearly everything, but the right pair can also provide the arch support needed to get through the day. Whether paired with a tank top and Levi’s, an IYKYK activewear brand, or even a spring dress, platform sneakers are the glass slipper that never fails to fit just right.

To help integrate the platform into your closet, we tapped fashion expert and assistant fashion director at Bloomingdale’s, Jordyn Leib, who encourages a practical and functional take on dressing. According to Leib, platform sneakers are best suited for pairing with shorts or mini hemlines, which is great for summer. “Think of them as the casual comp to your kitten heel—leg lengthening and adding some vertical height without compromising on comfort,” Leib says.
