Medissa shoes here specialise in large (and small) size shoes.

WinkyWinkola · 08/02/2008 20:52

Camper. Very distinctive style but so comfortable. They go up to a 9 for women, I think.

Camper Shoes

I'm 6ft tall and I wear heels sometime. Any particular reason why you don't, Pelvic? Tall women can look fantastic in heels if your shoulders are back and head up!

Beauregard · 08/02/2008 20:52

The fly shoes.
Listen it's me being heel paranoid,lol.

I have spent the winter in these but picture doesn't do them justice Have just ordered the riding boots as are reduced to £50.

I'm also 6'2" with size 10 feet. LTS have soem ok shoes. Tall girls is good but my fav for girly shoes is lush

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 08/02/2008 20:53

Rocket Dog for trainer/pumps (they do loads of different designs}

Sketchers are really comfy, and again they do loads of different designs in this style.

Birkenstocks are the most comfortable shoes for summer, again loads of designs (I own 10 pairs!)

Ballet Pumps are always a winner. I like the bold design ones, that way you can wear drab jeans and t-shirt but the shoes will funk it up.

Beauregard · 08/02/2008 20:54

I really hate my height so even the slightest heel makes me feel more freakish.

I have angered the Cod oh shit.
