THE MOST COMFORTABLE WIDE SHOES
One Size Does Not Fit All
When we shop for shoes, the focus is always on size – the length of the shoe. But when you think about it, our feet are not flat, therefore width and girth are equally as important to achieve the best fit. Unfortunately, most brands only offer one standard width which is supposed to fit everyone! This is when foot problems start to arise and the majority of the population tries to cram their feet into something that is too narrow. Ill fitting shoes squeeze the feet and toes in all directions creating pain, discomfort and potentially other problems that can affect the feet, knees, and back.
The simple switch to wide width shoes is the solution allowing you to feel great on your feet. Specialty footwear brands not only focus on the technology inside in the shoes, but also on offering multiple widths starting from narrow, all the way up to extra extra wide, giving you plenty to choose from to achieve a custom fit.

“Love, love, LOVE these shoes! I have a diabetic foot condition that requires me to wear 6E width shoes, which are incredibly hard to find. These shoes have been a blessing! They feel as comfortable as slippers, yet they are sturdy and holding up well. And they fit my VERY wide foot.”

What Causes Wide Width Feet?
Generally, people’s genetics determine whether they will have wide feet, much like other parts of your body. However, there are other factors that can contribute to a wide foot.
✓ | Injury: A foot that has sustained an injury may change shape and require a wider shoe. |
✓ | Swelling: Whether you have a condition such as Edema, are pregnant, take certain medication or have just been on your feet all day, fluid can build up in your feet, ankles and legs, causing them to swell and become wider. |
✓ | Bunions/Hammertoes: Having a bunion automatically makes your foot wider because of the protruding bone deformity. Hammertoes can also create a wider foot if the toes start to overlap. |
✓ | Age: As we age, our body changes. Ligaments and tendons become looser, and the feet flatten, creating a wider silhouette. |
✓ | Bad footwear: the shoes you put on your feet can alter their shape. It is known that women who wear high heels damage their feet. The same goes for any type of footwear that is too tight or doesn’t offer support. |
