Where to Find Shoes for Women with Big Feet: My Top Recommendations!

The thing I hate about being tall is having big clunky feet to go along with it. Out of all the troubles I’ve experienced with finding clothes that fit, shoes have by far been the biggest struggle.

I wear a size 13, and the majority of the time I need the wide width–try finding that in a shoe store. Believe me, it’s hard.

Nearly every mainstream shoe store sells only up to size 10–a few carry 11’s. It’s rare to see anything bigger. If you’re looking for where to find shoes for women with big feet, you’ve come to the right place because I know all about where to find them!

Unfortunately, if you wear larger than a women’s 10, you’ll many times need to do your shoe shopping online.

When looking for above a women’s size 10, you will probably need to use the internet. There are a few online shoe shops that offer decent selections of cute trendy shoes in bigger sizes–even up to women’s size 15!

Don’t worry though! It’s OKAY!


Here’s a list of great places that carry extended shoe sizes for women — some of them in up to a size 15! (My top recommendations!)


Zappos

Zappos definitely has one of the widest ranges of shoes in larger sizes for women – styles range from casual tennis shoes, athletics, flats, sandals, boots, and even slippers.

Some unisex styles offer shoes even past a women’s 15! They also offer width options for many brands of shoes ranging from extra narrow to extra-wide.

Another great thing about Zappos is they have the most generous return policy out of any online shoe store I’ve encountered. Anything you buy can be returned up to a year from the date of purchase, and it’s entirely free to ship your items back!

 See for yourself here at Zappos.com


DSW

DSW is one of the better-known shoe stores out there, but I never realized they carried larger sizes for women until I looked on their website. I was just so used to never being able to find the size I needed in the store, I didn’t realize they had such a selection of extended-sized shoes for women on their website!

But second to Zappos, their selection is great for women’s shoes in sizes 11, 12, 13+ for athletic shoes, casual, flats, dress shoes, and even boots. They even have a decent (but limited) selection for women’s size 14’s and 15’s as well.

Returns to any DSW store are entirely free, but you’ll need to pay a flat rate fee to return by mail.

Check out DSW here


Famous Footwear

Just like Zappos and DSW, Famous Footwear also has a great selection of all types of shoes in up to a women’s size 15.

Returns to any location are entirely free, but you’ll have to pay a flat-rate shipping fee to return by mail.

Check Famous Footwear here


Amazon

So I actually discovered that Amazon has a pretty decent selection of shoes for larger feet and the best part about it is there are many options that won’t break the bank. I found lots of stuff between $20-$50! Winter boots, fashion boots, sneakers, sandals – they seem to have it all.

Returns are typically free and some items you can try before you buy with Amazon Wardrobe. However the return details vary by seller, so you’ll need to make sure to check that carefully before purchasing shoes through Amazon’s website.

Find shoes at Amazon here

You can also find specialty lines like Amallitalli that sell on Amazon, up to a size 12 (check out here)


Nordstrom Rack

Nordstrom Rack is nice because they are one of the few stores that actually carry up to a women’s size 13 in their physical store locations. If you must do your shoe shopping in-store, this is one place to make sure to check out.

Online, they carry up to a women’s 15!

Returns are free to any store, but you’ll have to pay a shipping fee to return by mail.

Shop Nordstrom Rack


Long Tall Sally

This UK-based company carries shoes up to a size 13, but their selection isn’t nearly as expansive as the other options listed here. They used to carry up to a 15, but not anymore, unfortunately.

Long Tall Sally’s main focus is on clothing, but it may be worth a quick look at their shoe department.

Shoes.com

Shoes.com is another online retailer that offers a pretty large selection of shoes from sizes 11 – 15. They have pretty much everything here. Some shoes are even available up to a women’s 16!

Because they’re exclusively an online retailer, you might not want to purchase anything if you’re unsure of the fit. You don’t have the option to take it back to a store and returning items by mail will cost you a $7.95 restocking fee. This is a reason why you might want to consider checking Zappos first!

Shop shoes.com here


JCPenny

JCPenny is another place to check out as they have a pretty decent selection of women’s sizes 11 and 12. They have a handful of size 13 shoes as well, but if you wear above a 12 you’ll probably want to look elsewhere.

Shop JCPenny’s shoes


Torrid

Torrid actually has a really cute selection of shoes from 9 – 13W. The nice thing about Torrid is in addition to their website you can actually find these shoes IN store.

The only bad thing is the selection isn’t huge (especially in-store) and they only carry wide widths as they’re a specialty plus size shop. They’re still worth a mention though if you are looking for WIDE width shoes. I absolutely love them!

Shop WIDE shoes from Torrid up to a size 13!


Additional mentions…


Payless

Worth a mention, Payless carries up to a women’s size 13. They went bankrupt a couple of years ago and closed all their store locations, but recently they started making a comeback. Their website is relaunched, and they’ve opened up some of their stores again although locations are rather limited.

I used to love Payless when I could shop in-store because they were awesome if I needed super cheap shoes ASAP. But they haven’t re-opened any stores near me, so I no longer have the shopping in-store advantage.

One of the worst things about Payless is that they’re totally hit or miss with the selection – sometimes they have tons of great stuff and other times, not so much.


Shoe Show Mega

I never knew this place existed but was recommended by a reader – I’m very excited to check it out. They carry sizes all the way up to a 14W for women and actually have a decent selection of extended sizes.

The best part about this place is the shoes are actually affordable – you can score some shoes for between $10 – $40 and they have sales! 


This is not a list of EVERY store and specialty shop that carries these shoes – it’s only my recommendations. These are where you’ll be able to find the most expansive selections of larger shoes for women in sizes 11 – 15, in styles ranging from tennis shoes, casual, flats, dress shoes, sandals, boots, and even slippers!


Check out my Ultimate Guide on Shopping for Extended Size Shoes for Women


I’ve written a more in-depth piece here for shopping for these extended-sized shoes. I don’t feel like the search tools on shoe retailers’ websites (and search engines) are perfect when it comes to finding all the shoes and styles you want.

It can be super helpful to know common brands that carry specific styles and sizes – including which ones offer wide width options. If you know exactly what to search for, you can discover a lot more shoes that you may not have otherwise.


I hope the aforementioned list helps a lot of you ladies out in your quest for shoes, I know it certainly would have helped me in the past! :)

    THANKKKKKSSSS SOOOO MUUUUCCCCHHH!!!! I wear a size 12 and I am 6’1. I used to feel extremely insecure about my height and especially my large foot size because I was often teased from my peers about it. Although I am not at complete body peace, this has definitely relieved some of those insecurities, knowing I can still wear fashionable shoes even if I do have a larger shoe size. Once again, thankss soooo much!

      Hey Tiffany,

      I know, that’s the unfortunate side effect of having big feet–as if the choices aren’t already limited enough for us, the selection of “cheap” shoes in bigger sizes is almost non-existed. I’ve found Payless to have the best selection of more affordable shoes, have you tried looking there?

    http://www.6pm.com has great shoes at reduced prices. They are associated with Zappos. I wear a 10 1/2 to an 11 Narrow which are very difficult to find at reasonable prices. I have been very happy with all my shoe purchases at 6PM. com. I haven’t shoe shopped at a brick and mortar store for years now and have not had to endure the ‘look’ when I request my size in a cute shoe and the inevitable load of boxes of ugly shoes brought out in my size because they don’t have what I wanted to try on. Try them out – you won’t be disappointed!

    I wear a size 12 and have struggled for many years finding shoes that fit my huge feet! I have to agree with you, I think Payless and Shoes.com are good places for ladies with big feet to shop! They carry the big sizes and some of them are pretty cute! Although they definitely need a bigger selection…it still is so limited compared to the smaller sizes ! ugh the downfalls of big feet, huh?

      November 25, 2013 at 9:09 pm

      Yeah, agreed with the selection, it really sucks. :/ I probably have it worse than a lot of girls with big feet, though. Not only are my feet just long – they’re WIDE! So a lot of times even the shoes in sizes 12 or 13, while they are the correct length, are TOO NARROW and my feet won’t fit. :/ It sucks because most of the cute shoes in sizes 12 and 13 aren’t additionally available in “wide” sizes- it’s frustrating but just the way it is. :/

        Hi everyone, just looking through all your posts. I wear a uk size 10.5 so usually have to buy an 11 (US 13) One of my daughters (19) wears a uk 10 and we both have narrow feet. There seems to be many shops here After 8 Shoes, Long Tall Sally, Evans, Magnus, Crispins, Pretty Big Feet, Katie Long Shoes – our problem is they all come up too wide, so if you need long and wide shoes try the UK. We usually have to buy ours from the US as they only stock narrow shoes for us. Bizzar!. We have just found a new company called Upper Street and they will let you design your own shoes up to a UK size 10.5 or 44 but the 44 does come up ong. I had a really lovely pair made for me – they offer width fittings and you get to design your own shoe, heel height. Upper Street Shoes is the search engine you need to put in. Hope this helps.

They are made in England on a narrow last but if you ask one of the team they may be able to get you a bigger size as I believe they are made on a last for men initially. They are not the most feminine of boot but then hiking boots are not really anyway. Hope this helps. Regards, Sharon

    Sensational Soles is a newly launched company that specializes in large size women’s shoes. Their shoes are extremely good quality and have been designed to make larger feet look smaller than they are. They use leather “everywhere the foot touches,” their heels are reinforced, and they have loads of cushioning–so they’re comfortable. I’ve bought 2 pair from then and get the work out every chance I get. They offer free shipping, both ways. http://www.SensationalSoles.com

    Most important women’s large size shoe vendor, Nordstrom.com
    Norstrom began as a shoe store in downtown Seattle. Today their claim to fame is their massive odd-size shoes. If you’re looking for quality, designer shoes in a range of sizes (beyond ladies size 14, and widths of every variety.)

    What I love best is that they have ‘Search’ drop-downs to help you locate ONLY the size you wear and the style of shoe/boot you seek. It’s fabulous!

      PS: Nordstrom has retail stores in several of the largest US cities, so check the store locator to see if there is one within driving distance. For bargins, check out NordstomRack.com, or their retail stores (generally in the same town as the main stores)

    Funny how all these articles always are about women with big feet, but never about guys with big feet who can’t find shoes. So not only the media and blogs usually completely ignore us big footed boys, but so do shoe stores, since the selection of big sizes for girls in any store is far superior to that of guys. But even girls with big feet dismiss us: they always say “oh but you are a guy”. So? Many times people are judged at first impression time by their shoes, if they are clean or new, or what style. Well, I have size 16 or 17 feet men’s and I am 5’11, and I don’t like having to show up with dirty huge sneakers to a date or interview. Online one can find stuff but the selection is terribly spotty at my size (which I know is quite a large foot size!), and if you need something quick just forget it. So “barefoot and big footed” is my motto much too often.

    But heck I’m not here for people to be sorry for me, it’s not the end of the world either. It is the reality however… I feel for all the girls here with size 12, 13, and 14 feet. We should all start a Big Foot pride club, and stop being ashamed of our large feet.

      I feel for your issues as a man with large feet as well – trust me! I have focused my article and blog about woman because that is what I know and what my problems are – not because I don’t think men struggle with similar issues. Also I think women might be more comfortable in general blogging and discussing things like shoes, whereas a man might feel weird and that is why you find a lack of sources about it online?

      Big Foot pride club lol – I like it. I am not so much ashamed of my large feet, I am just frustrated at the lack of options for shoes.

      Hmm. Have you tried men’s shoes? For comfortable supportive sneakers you might have better luck finding in men’s – that would be around a 12 W in men’s and is much easier to find. I’m sorry the selection is so limited for women at this size!

    Thank you so much for this information!! I recently went up to a size 12 and 13 in shoes. It is completely impossible in finding our shoe sizes in stores, its to the point where i cannot go show shopping without getting upset. I wish there was something that we could do to get bigger shoe sizes in stores around the world. Many girls have low elf esteem about how they look because society has a big toll on everything. Society has set a standard look for girls around the world and in order to fit that look you have to have certain characteristics. I’m 6 feet tall and i have been this tall since my freshmen year of high school, which was in 2012, ive had people make fun or joke around about my height and feet. But thank you so much for posting this information, it has helped my tremendously!!

      You’re welcome I’m glad I could help. It is extremely difficult to find that size in regular stores, I know. Payless is the only store around where I live that offers it, but the selection is pretty limited. Unfortunately we’re restricted to specialty online shops or men’s shoes.. ugh.

    I don’t think I own 1 pair of shoes that are not too short on my feet. I wear a size 12.5 and my feet are pretty narrow. Most size 12 are a bit too short and 13 are too big. My big toe is the culprit. My foot is probably an 11 and my toe extends another 2.5 inches, finding shoes is torture.
    So frustrating! This blog is helpful

    I have a size 13 wide shoe size and am almost 6 feet tall. I need to find some character shoes for choir. (there shoes specifically for dancing in.) The only thing is I have no clue where to look for them. If anyone knows a place I could find some that would be a lot of help.

      Each one of the recommendations can be bought online, but the only one I know for sure that ships to the Caribbean is Amazon.

    I’m glad I found this list. My daughter is only 13, on the autism spectrum, and a giant (5’10” and at least a size 11.5 shoe). We went to the mall the other day thinking we might find something. We found 2 pairs that she loved that only went to a size 11. Anything over that was plain and ugly. She almost cried when the lady at the shop told her those brands didn’t make the styles she liked any bigger.
