What Features Should Women Look for When Shopping for Large Shoes?

When searching for ladies shoes for bigger feet, heels are often neglected. However, heels have a remarkable ability to give the illusion of smaller feet by changing the angle of your foot from flat to diagonal.

This doesn't mean you have to wear platform heels or heights that you're not comfortable with. Even a moderate heel height of around 5cm can make a visual difference. Sole Bliss shoes provide a variety of styles, ranging from kitten heels to platforms, so there is a style for everyone!

Go for Square or Rounded Toes

In order to make your feet look smaller, it is best to avoid shoes with pointed toes and choose ones that have rounded or square toes instead. One of our best shoes for women with big feet is Mercy (among lots of other cute shoes for big feet). This style offers a round toe shape and also alleviates the appearance of difficult joints and big feet.

Mercy can help make your feet look more in proportion and add a classy touch to your shoes. Embrace the flexibility and timeless charm of rounded toe shoes to enhance your style and boost your confidence.

Look for Horizontal Straps

Shoes that feature straps are an excellent choice for stylish shoes for women with big feet. Choose shoes with horizontal, thicker straps, such as Mary Janes or T-Bar sandals, as they visually break up the foot and create an illusion of a narrower silhouette. However, be cautious with ankle straps, as they can make the feet appear wider and shorter.

Choose Dark Colours and Neutral Tones

The choice of colour is really important for shoes for women with big feet. Dark and neutral tones, such as black, navy, brown, beige and other deep hues, have the remarkable ability to work wonders in creating a slimming effect, thus making your feet appear smaller.

These shades have a visually receding quality that helps to minimise the appearance of larger feet. We would advise to steer clear of white shoes as this colour tends to enhance the appearance of being bigger and can draw more attention. The best shoes for women with big feet are always dark. 


Comfortable and Supportive Styles are Key

When choosing women's shoes for bigger feet, it is important to prioritise comfort. Seek out designs that have cushioned soles and sufficient arch support to ensure you can stay comfortable all day long. Sole Bliss shoes are designed for comfort!

It is crucial to find the right fit to avoid any discomfort or foot problems, so don't hesitate to try different widths and styles. Sole Bliss shoes are designed with 3 Layers of Memory Foam cushioning built underfoot, creating a soft and comforting foundation for your feet.


Look for High-Quality Materials

Choosing shoes of high quality is important for durability and long-lasting comfort. It is advisable to select footwear made from superior materials, such as high-quality leathers and suedes, as they allow your feet to breathe, minimising the likelihood of foot odour and discomfort. The use of premium materials is essential in ensuring optimal breathability and enhancing overall comfort.

All Sole Bliss shoes are handmade in Spain and Italy with the use of high-quality craftsmanship that plays a pivotal role in determining the longevity and overall feel of our shoes. Therefore, investing in shoes crafted with the utmost attention to detail can make a substantial difference in your footwear experience, providing both comfort and durability.

Foot size can vary greatly among individuals, and it is important to embrace and celebrate the diversity of our bodies. For women who wear a shoe size of 9 or above, their feet may be considered larger in comparison to standard sizes. However, it is crucial to recognise that beauty comes in all sizes, and having larger feet is just one aspect of you. 

Here at Sole Bliss, we understand and cater to the needs of women with larger feet and other foot conditions offering a range of stylish and comfortable options that prioritise both comfort and fashion.

 

Our collection of shoes is specifically designed to accommodate wide feet and larger foot sizes, ensuring that you can find shoes that embrace and enhance your individuality. 

At Sole Bliss, we create various types of styles that can diminish the appearance of larger feet. Our collection includes round and square toe flats, heels, and trainers that minimise the look of bigger feet while prioritising comfort.

We recommend styles with straps across the instep in darker, neutral colours. Choosing a neutral shade that matches your skin tone will effortlessly blend with your feet, creating the illusion of shorter feet and longer legs!

We suggest selecting shoe styles that provide extra space in the toe box area, preferably with a round or square toe shape. This gives the impression of shorter feet, as opposed to elongating them with pointed toe styles.

You have various options, such as platform trainersflats, or loafers. Even flat styles like our Tamara and Trinity loafers, with their almond toe shapes, can create the illusion of smaller feet. 

Sole Bliss provides larger sizes to cater to women with larger feet. Nearly all our women's shoes go up to a UK 9 / EU 42 and some styles, including our Sprint Trainers and Royal Flats, go up to a size EU 43.

We also feature a collection of Men's Trainers that are available in sizes up to EU 45. These trainers feature the same Comfort Technology as our women's shoes and come in a smart unisex design. Our men's trainer, called Stride, is the male counterpart to our women's trainer, Sprint.
