Women who have wide feet have a really hard time finding stylish shoes that they like. This is because most shoe companies don’t manufacture their shoes in a wide width (“W”, “EE”).
Most women with wide feet are limited to wearing the same shoe styles over and over again, but this doesn’t have to be the case anymore. I work for a shoe store that specializes in helping people with foot conditions and “complicated” foot shapes (wide, extra wide, high instep), and over the years I became familiar with the most stylish wide width shoes for women.
Many women are constantly asking where they can find stylish shoes that are available in wide widths (“W”, “EE”). Not all shoe brands make shoes in different widths or consider wider feet, and most shoe styles even among the same shoe brands fit differently, so for most women with wide feet like yours, it’s just trial and error. I have tested several different shoe brands and hundreds of different shoe styles, and based on that experience I have put together a list of the best stylish wide width shoes for women.
What Does It Mean When Shoes Are Available in Wide Widths?
You might be wondering what is the advantage of wearing shoes that are actually available in wide widths (“W’, “EE”). Just so you know, shoes that are available in wide widths are variations of normal-sized shoes where the overall length is the same, but the toe box width is increased to accommodate wider feet.
For example, let’s take a look at an image of two different Chelsea boots that are the same size in length, but one of them is available in wide widths. Do you notice how the boot on the right has a rounded toe-box compared to the boot on the left? This is the advantage of finding shoes in wide widths!
Be Aware: Not All Shoes in Wide Widths Will Fit Your Wide Feet
Keep in mind that simply choosing a shoe that is available in wide widths and hoping that it will fit the shape of your wide feet is not enough. You can have two shoes that are available in wide widths but one might be a lot wider than the other.
For example, you can have two shoes that are the same length and both can be available in wide widths, but one of them might be deeper than the other. Take a look at the image below for better clarification purposes. Do you notice how the boot on the right is a lot deeper compared to the boot on the left?
The list of stylish shoes that I have put together are all available in wide widths and they also provide extra depth. However, before I show you this list I want to make sure that you know your exact foot length and shape. This is the only way that you will order the correct shoe size online.
Do You Know Your Exact Foot Size?
Some women keep buying the same shoe size over and over again simply because that’s the size they have always worn. Keep in mind that just because you have worn a regular fit at some point, that doesn’t mean your feet will remain the same width for life. As we age, our feet can change shape and spread out, making them wider than they were previously. Some of the factors that contribute to this change are pregnancy, aging and weight gain or loss.
Buying shoes online can be a challenge. If you are unsure about what shoe size you need to order online I suggest that you take a look at the resource below. In that article, I help women determine their exact foot length and shape (high instep).
