Court shoes are often called pumps, especially in the UK.
Traditionally, they’re worn by women, but there are many varieties of
court shoes that are worn by men on certain occasions.The women’s version is the most typical, however, and although many people might not be familiar with the name court shoe, they’ve probably heard the term “pumps” before, and have probably also seen women wearing them in fashionable settings.Court shoes are usually not tied or strapped, but instead the feet
slip into them. Women’s shoes do have some exceptions to this rule,
however, as some women’s court shoes have an ankle strap. Court shoes for women are usually heeled, with a short to medium
height heel of the stiletto variety. Court shoes are not always stiletto
heeled, though. There have been some innovations in the UK, especially
in the last few years, with flat-soled heels. The whims of high fashion
tend to dictate the direction of the style of court shoes in the UK.
