Schutz Arlene Platform Sandals Maplewood

Product Insights & Style Tips

Schutz's Arlene Platform Sandals Maplewood walk the line between glossy fashion-passthrough and streetwise polish. The patent-leather upper in Maplewood reads like a high-shine sculpture, while the leather lining keeps the foot feeling premium and comfortable. A bold block heel and a barely-there platform give height with a grounded feel, and the open-toe silhouette keeps the look breezy. The buckle ankle strap locks the line clean, and the leather sole with a rubber heel cap adds grip as you move. Imported from Brazil.

On the foot, the Arlene sits tall but balanced: adjustable ankle strap, secure toe opening, and a platform that distributes lift for more confident steps. The patent finish holds shine through photos and day-to-night looks, while the heel height delivers drama without sacrificing walkability. This sandal pairs easily with cropped denim, sleek midi skirts, or tailored trousers, carrying a glossy edge from brunch to after-dark shows without feeling precious.

Schutz continues to feed the cult of glossy platforms, aligning with The Cool Hour’s taste for bold, statement pieces that still read versatile. The Arlene channels a modern city-glam mood—elevated evenings with minimalist outfits or a playful contrast against utilitarian denim.
