Deceiving Wedged High Heels

The Jeffrey Campbell Teramo Sneakers Feature a Hidden Platform

— September 24, 2012 — Fashion
With its streamlined and athletic look, it is a surprise that the Jeffrey Campbell Teramo sneaker is actually a stylish sporty wedge. The hidden platform within the shoe is hardly noticeable from the outside, but it will give you an extra three and a half inches if you are looking for a bit of height.

The leather shoe is a sophisticated take on the sneaker wedge with its two color waves; one comes in mostly white with black detailing and the other one comes in two tones of tan. The giant Velcro strap that covers the laces gives the shoes a cleaner look and makes them appear more like a contemporary high-top sneaker rather than your usual platform.

Uplift your street style with these Jeffrey Campbell Teramo sneaker wedges.
