Hello, please offer online solutions.

Links preferred, I can also use Google if you give me the right search term.

No, I do NOT want cross dresser links that only serve to put me looking at dumb ass 3-5 inch heels as if real women actually wear those on a common day in common clothing.

I want common, ordinary BLAND EVEN female fashions that just happen to be in MY size. I take something like a 10ish sized shoe. Male size 10, and I have no idea how that converts.

I'm looking for a shoe I can wear from home to the mall on foot for 3 hours and not end up injured. I am NOT going from home to car to store to car to home. I am NOT interested in anything that belongs under a fancy dress or on an exaggerated street walker. Something sandal like would be nice, something enclosed would be nice, and I don't want running shoes. I like well made leather shoes. I'd rather pay 150 bucks (like I normally do for ordinary men's shoes) rather than 20 bucks for cheap junk. Given time, I'd like something for winter, but, I'd rather just concentrate on something that won't look fashion dead with a skirt on.

I have a few things preventing me from wearing a skirt, all of them fashion sense oriented, as I want to look crappy as much as any other woman wants to look crappy (even though some women seem to be unaware of what crappy looks like). Shoes is high on this list, and of course, I need a better head of hair and a nicer waist size.

You can't go wrong with Zappos, if you don't like the shoes, they pay the return shipping. Sizes run to 15. Happy shopping, hugs, Devlyn

Barefoot Tess is good for larger sizes...

Payless has online, and brick and mortar stores.

Once you know your exact shoe size, you can order from amazon, Walmart and other stores.
My shoe size is 10 in both men and women in the US.
I order 'wide' size if available.
For >3 inch heels, you may add 1 size, or 2 if the wide size is not available.

As I live in south Korea, I ordered flat sandals and then  4 inch heels from Amazon. The heels I wear in avatar is from Amazon (size 10, 4 inch heel).

Right now, I wear a womens 11, 12, or 13, depending on the manufacturer.  And half sizes if I can find them

      I bought mine at KOHL's  spent 2 hours wandering around the women dept they have great sales.
  My size is also 10 and that is the size I bought and they fit perfectly and are very comfortable.

    They look great with jeans and I can spend all day walking in them.

   

Lesley, I feel for you girl friend. It seems we all have such huge feet. Oh what we would all give to have nice little womens size 7-8 feet. I'm 9 /12 to a 10 however they are so/too wide.  Good luck.

If in UK Debenhams have a good range up to 10 I think. One brand in particular is very good for my size 9s: Good for the sole.

Male size 10, and I have no idea how that converts.

In US shoes, the sizes usually convert by subtracting 2 from the female size to end up with the male size (I am a size 6 in female shoes, so I am a 4 in boys). You should be a size 12 in female shoes.

Dillard's has "extended sizes" for women's shoes: http://www.dillards.com/shop/Shoes-Women-Extended-Sizes/_/N-y3i4

DSW Shoes has a really good selection in the larger sizes. The Rack also appears to have some good ones but they are a bit more pricey.

This seems funny however it works. To fit into normal women's pointy shoes tape around your big toe & all other toes to form more of a natural point for your foot. It does not hurt at all & nice looking shoes feel great & it saves hurting or rubbing on your big toe.

Another vote for DSW and you can get some nice deals on the sale racks at the back of the store, Its funny when they tell you, "you saved $360 today on two pairs" well maybe, but I wouldn't have brought them if they weren't 70% off lol

Nobody seems to have mentioned Payless yet either.

I noticed recently Dorothy Perkins seem to have a good selection of size 9 (uk) online now.  Hopefully picking up the hole left now new look have cut back.  I just hope they start stocking them in store as well.   

Probably a bit too far for people in the US, but for anyone in Europe, Amazon Deutschland is really good, by far the best site I have found eg. right now over 9500 styles to choose from in size 43 (10.5 U.S.) and 7500 styles in size 44 (12 U.S.).

http://www.amazon.de/s/ref=sr_nr_n_0?rh=n%3A355006011%2Cn%3A%21361139011%2Cn%3A1760296031%2Cn%3A1760304031&bbn=1760296031&ie=UTF8&qid=1368563872&rnid=1760296031&ajr=2

Prices, especially during sales (Winter & Summer), can be really good too. Obviously, a minimum level of German is helpful but it is Amazon German which means everything is presented in the same way as on amazon.com etc..

I don't know where you're at Lesley but in the state QVC and The Home Shopping Network sell larger shoe sizes when they are selling women's shoes. I have seen up to size 12 and 13. And believe it or not they sell just as fast as the smaller sizes. Maybe we are gaining in numbers here.

I think it goes up from men's sizes from 11/2 to 2 sizes larger. I guess I'm luck because I wear 9 in men's and usually 10's in womens, some more comfortable than others though.

OP- I don't know if you need to/want to lose any wait, but I lost a bunch of weight, and my shoe size went down. It made finding shoes so much easier!

Have you tried going to Payless? They're cheap and don't have a ton of selection, but they do have normal-looking  shoes in size 11+ women's of decent quality.

You'd probably be a 11 or 12 in women's. Try DSW, Zappos, Shoebuy, Payless, or Nordstrom's.
