When you need to put your best foot forward in a red work pump, then there is one 4 inch heel that stands firmly above them all.
Not only is this a beautifully made heel, but it also has athletic cushioning technology inside for maximum comfort.
This red 4 inch shoe is called Hazel by Sam Edelman.

You may wonder why Hazel is such a stand-out performer as the best red 4 inch single sole high heel pump in my opinion?
I have reviewed the shoe before in black and came to the same conclusion.
In that review (which you can read here) I explained that over 2,500 women were prepared to give this 4 inch pump a 5 star review.
The number one reason is simple.
Comfort.
Hazel has fit technology which it describes as a “padded sock” to increase comfort. Basically the heel has a thin layer of cushioning – only about 1/16th of an inch – but the cushion is where it matters.
Buyers consistently rate the heel as comfortable, which is not easy for a shoe with more-or-less a 4 inch stiletto (the heels are officially 3.75 inches measured on a size 6, but heels usually increase slightly in height as size increases).
There’s a second reason why I can highly recommend this shoe as the best 4 inch red heel on the market right now.
It is quality and styling.
In the last decade or so, leather shoe prices have stagnated and “mid range” brands have struggled (the rot seemed to start when Nine West filed for bankruptcy in 2018 and others soon followed).
Meanwhile cheap “unbranded” heels have flooded the bottom end of the market.
The top end (with the likes of Christian Louboutin, Manolo Blahnik and so on) did not seem to lose business, but the brands in the “middle” have been squeezed.
Sam Edelman is perhaps the one exception to this rule. The brand has not appeared to lower its prices or compromise on quality.
The end effect is a shoe in Hazel that not only is our number one work pump pic in black, but also is the best red 4 inch high heel pump right now.
One final thing to know is that Hazel is currently produced in two shades of red, both exquisite.
The Parisian red is pictured here, but there is also a darker Ruby Red (which you can see by clicking through to the product page).
