* Pumps, Sandals, and Zapatillas

Pump Pump - A women's closed shoe with high heel and low-cut upper (escote) to reveal the instep of the foot, possibly with open toe, usually without straps or other fastening. An example is shown at left. More generally, any women's formal high-heeled shoe. (In British English, a pump is an athletic shoe and a court shoe is a pump.)
D'Orsay pump D'Orsay pump - A pump with the one or both sides cut away to reveal the side(s) and arch of the foot, but with the heel enclosed by a heel counter (cobertura del talón) and also having an instep and/or toe covering.
Mary Jane Mary Jane - Any woman's shoe that has a closed heel and a lateral strap across the instep (the top of the foot) from side to side, fastened with a buckle.
Sandal Sandal - A open shoe without a heel counter (or with only a minimal one), leaving the heel of the foot exposed, secured by straps over the instep and usually also ankle straps, and open at the toe. Formal sandals often come in gold or silver. More generally, a sandal is any open shoe.

Zapatilla - This word has different meanings in different countries and contexts. It can mean a house slipper (pantufla), a ballet shoe (bailarina), a child's booty (patuco), a slip-on flat (zapato plano ligero sin cordones), a sports shoe or sneaker (tenis), or (especially in Mexico) a high-heeled woman's shoe.
