A wedge sole naturally distributes weight more evenly than a sole with a heel.

As the name implies, this type of shoe has a somewhat triangular, wedge shape, but not all wedges are super high heels. Wedge heel height varies from low to high; it's solely the shape of the heel that categorizes it as a wedge.
