How To Choose Large Size Women's Shoes
Maybe you were teased as a child. And, you've politely ignored
the references to your feet looking like gunboats. Well, the
joke isn't on you anymore. Large size women shoes are widely
available like never before. Whether you want a dressy pump or a
comfortable athletic trainer, retailers and manufacturers are
figuring out that there is an ever-growing market in large size
women shoes.
With over 30 percent of all women's shoe sales being size nine
and above, there is big money in selling large size women shoes.
The fact is women's feet are getting bigger. While women over
the age of 35 have an average shoe size of seven and a half,
their younger counterparts average a shoe size of eight and a
half.
This "growing" demand for women's shoes in sizes nine through
fifteen has spawned many new retailers and shoe manufacturers
who specialize in larger sizes. Twenty years ago, a woman with
big feet had very limited options in shoes. Now, she can choose
from a vast array of business, casual, and even golfing shoes.
It is estimated that approximately 85 percent of women buy shoes
in the wrong size. Most often, they buy shoes that are too
small. Ill-fitting shoes can contribute to a whole host of
medical problems including bunions, corns, hammertoes, and
calluses. With the larger sizes more commonly available now,
women are finding the styles that they want in the sizes
that
they need. This is a welcome relief for the many women who have
bought shoes in a too-small size because there was no other
option.
If you are a woman with big, glorious feet, make sure that you
have both of your feet sized every time you buy shoes. Take the
measurement standing up and sitting down. Ask the salesperson
for suggestions on shoe brands that might work with your foot
size and shape.
If you are trying to minimize the size of your feet, look for
shoes with rounded toes and moderate heels. You may want to stay
away from pointy pumps, ballerina flats, and t-straps that can
lengthen the appearance of your feet. It is also best to stick
to neutral tones or colors that blend well with hose or pants.
Finally, keep in mind that if the average shoe size of women
keeps growing, you may find yourself having smaller than average
feet. Those jokes about your less than dainty tootsies will
certainly be a thing of the past.
