Plus Size Shoe Recs

Have fat, and very flat feet! Usually between a 5 and a 6, but need a very wide shoe to fit in flat feet and orthotics. Have plantar fasciitis (?) so a low heel is best. Looking for something waterproof that will be good for quite a lot of walking, so probably something boot related, but I'd love recommendations for a smart pair of work shoes too if anyone has them!

Evans do wide shoes.

I'll have a look, thank you!

This seller on eBay does Evans shoes, brand new, presumably excess stock. Her postage is somewhat expensive, but the shoes are quite a lot under retail price. I’ve bought a few pairs from her.

Maelstrop Love the username! Thank you, the cost of these sorts of shoes really does get me down so thank you for finding me some bargains!

Pleasure! I hate paying a fortune, especially when sometimes my usual size is too big! I got a bargain pair of sandals (used, I’m not proud!) from another eBay seller, but they’re a bit too big, such a shame, but I only paid a fiver.

La redoute do wide sizes, plus newlook have a wide fit range, and M&S

M&S do wider fitting shoes in half sizes up to a 42. They're decent quality leather and a reasonable price.

Thank you everyone! Definitely lots to choose from, which is a surprise, I've never thought of most of these places! 😊

simplybe and oxendales do a selection of widths. They're the only place I can shop as I take an EEE width - none of the other shops' 'wide fitting' offerings come close to going on my feet.

Maelstrop · 27/08/2018 10:04

@UtterlyUnimaginativeUsername not even Evans? I’ve got stupidly wide feet yet they are generally too big!

argumentativefeminist · 27/08/2018 10:07

I'm usually an EEE too! I've found them at YoursClothing a few times and they've been nice but not very long lasting in winter.

Yoursclothing.co.uk do wide fitting shoes too.
