How high is the wedge on the Vinnie?

It is a 50mm low wedge, roughly two inches. That is close to flat underfoot, so it is easier to walk in than a high espadrille or block heel.

Does the Vinnie run true to size?

Owners often report it runs narrow and slightly short. If you are between sizes or have a wider foot, go up half a size or pick the wide width.

Is it comfortable for all-day wear?

The cushioned footbed and low wedge suit long days better than a heel. Expect a short break-in for the thong strap, and the leather sole is thin under the ball of the foot.

Leather or suede: which should I choose?

Leather holds up better to sweat and repeated wear; suede feels softer out of the box but marks more easily. Both use the same leather lining and sole.

Can I wear it on the beach or in the rain?

No. The leather outsole is smooth and slippery when wet, so keep it for dry pavement and poolside decks rather than sand or rain.

How does it compare with a flat designer thong sandal?

The Vinnie adds a small wedge and a square toe where most designer thongs are flat and rounded. It gives more lift and a dressier line, but the leather sole is less grippy than a rubber-soled flat.

About the Stuart Weitzman Vinnie Wedge Thong 50 Sandals

The Vinnie is a low-wedge thong sandal from Stuart Weitzman in leather or suede, with a square open toe, leather lining and a leather outsole. The 50mm wedge lifts the heel without the pitch of a stiletto, and the cushioned footbed is aimed at all-day wear. It sits in the casual summer slot rather than the dressy heel range, so it competes with flat designer thongs on comfort and with higher wedges on stability. Owners rate it around 3.8 out of 5: most like the look and the walkable height, while some find the fit narrow or the leather outsole slick and quick to wear.

Best forShoppers wanting a walkable designer wedge for summerWomen who prefer a thong strap over a slide or ankle strapNarrow to medium feet that suit a slim leather footbedCasual outfits that need a little height, not a heel
