I Hate My Feet!

Plaid Pants2 — Sat, 04 Feb 2017 16:54:50 GMT

I am cursed with having canoes for feet, and I inherited that from my mom. (Thanks, Mom!)

I wear a 10 wide in womens shoes.

Good luck trying to find a pretty dress shoe in that size, especially heels.

Now, my ideal dress shoe, would be open toe, strappy, maybe a little sparkle on it, and a heel that was a least 3 inches.

I have all but given up trying to find such a shoe.

I have contemplated cutting my feet off, and getting new ones that are a size 8 medium width.(Kidding!)

I have been driven to frustration and tears in search of a pretty dress shoe in my size.

As I said, I hate my big, ugly feet.

Anything about yourself that you are not happy with?

Have you tried shoes.com? I'm so sorry that you feel as you do. If you are tall you probably need a 10. And a 10 isn't big, IMO.

@Plaid Pants2 I am just thankful my feet do not hurt. They are a size 10 also. As far as not loving parts of my body, I try to just be thankful that I am healthy and my four joint replacements all work and let me be active and moving again. Try to see the good rather than the bad . Love yourself

I'm sure people enjoy being around you and focus on the person you are.

I know that I may only see someone's shoes when they're walking or standing near me.

I have long arms, long legs, long fingers and long toes. That's fine. I'm often asked by strangers to grab items off store shelves that they can't reach.

I just wish my neck and torso were longer. Ridiculously short-waisted.

@Plaid Pants2

There are men who have large feet who require such shoes and they find them. The shoes are out there!

I wear a size 10M and have a bunion. Seems pretty trivial when I consider everything else in life.

I am a size 12, that's right a size 12.

I wish I was a size 10!!!!

Things have come a long way in larger size shoes.

I don't wear heels over two inches but their are so many size 10 shoes online.

May be the poster may need to venture online.

To be honest I don't have hard to fit feet so I am most sorry for those that do. I personally have what is called Freddie Flintstone feet which are short, squat feet that usually do not fit in strappy sandals (or anything with cut outs as my toes have a way of escaping) so I usually wear closed toe pumps. In my golden years I am grateful for the Vionics arch support (imagine the fashion for that footwear).

Sigh . . . I haven't felt this old in a while . . .

@Plaid Pants2: Sorry, but my 9.5 W or WW's are harder to find than your size, as I'm sure the 11 and 12 W ladies will agree.

I really don't care about shoe size as long as my feet work and are comfortable!

Thanks for all of your help, ladies!

I found something that I like at a site called Exotic High Heels.

I can't get the picture to post here, but it is called, 521-Jewel, 5" Heel Clear Wide Width Anke Strap Sandal

As I said, I like a T-A-L-L heel.

While large wide feet may have been a problem years ago, the internet makes shopping around these problems so easy. You got many great suggestions. Just let your fingers do the shopping and enjoy your new shoes.

I have to laugh, now we've discussed our feet and last week it was lumpy or smooth heads. Is it any womder people have trouble loving themselves. I still don't get the hang of that last one. I'm sure long feet in women, must mean something wonderful about them.
