Title: Shoes
Post by: Deanna on November 25, 2016, 06:32:19 PM
Hey everyone! So, I have been having a very hard time finding any decent women's shoes in my size. I am a size 12-13 in men's, so I would be a 14-15 in women's. Does anyone know of any stores or online sites that sell shoes in bigger sizes?

Thanx!

Payless carries up to size 13 in women's which I can fit the wide size.  I also wear a 12 or so in mens. In store selection is pretty much hit or miss.

I have big feet too. I am also over 200 lbs. I like the idea of customizable shoes and I found this firm that is funded by Nordstrom.https://www.shoesofprey.com/
They have up to ladies size 15 which equates to size 13 mens.

Have you tried any shoes on?  I usually take a man's size 9.5 or 10.  I currently own about a dozen pairs of women's and the largebst pair is 10.5.  most are 10's.

As for brands try Nine West.  They typically carry larger sizes and their shoes run l little large at my size.

No I have not tried them as I found some Payless shoes I can cram my feet into. But since they are sold through Nordstrom they must be pretty good quality wise. They also have a 360 day guarantee, and if you know anything about Nordstrom it is not uncommon to pretty much wear them out and return them. In fact my MIL had her Nordstrom shoes for three years before returning them. Nordstrom service is off the chart. What I like is that you can pick your heel size.

I would second Nordstrom. Saw women shoes up to 13. You can try Nordstrom Rack which is their outlet store and way cheaper... Payless also works pretty well.
