Women often don’t realise that one shoe size isn’t always enough.
We need to remember that as well as foot length; foot width and calf width have a major role in the fit and comfort of your footwear. Most people know their basic “shoe size” but it can be difficult to then figure out their true shoe fit.
If you want to find your shoe size then look at the chart to the left.
Simple foot length is not always enough when it comes to choosing comfortable footwear. Most people’s feet vary slightly in width; two people with size 5 feet will not necessarily need the same width shoes. People who should wear E fit shoes and Ee fit shoes are the most likely to be unaware they need wide fitting shoes as the difference seems so slight, however, wearing wider fit shoes could make a huge difference to them. Women who need size Eee and Eeee shoes may be more likely to realise their need for wide fitting shoes, but won’t necessarily know where to find fashionable shoes in E, EE, EEE and EEEE sizes.
In order to check your foot wrap a tape measure underneath the widest part of your foot, just below the toe and measure the width round your foot. Then consult the table below to find your perfect wide fitting shoes size.
