Help with finding shoes

shiningstar — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 19:35:54 GMT

I need recommendations on a comfortable casual shoe that I can wear to church and work. I have arthritis in my feet along with bunions. I need a shoe that is flexable and a wide width. Two pair of Clark's have been sent back to the Q. Not wide enough and not flexable. As some of you know, it is so hard to find a wide shoe.

You may want to check the naturalizer website; they carry many wide widths and have a lot of lower heeled, , dressy shoes and flats; I have bought several pair that work for me. But I wear regular width.....also the aerosoles website.....both sites are having huge sales right now This is the time of year Naturalizer marks things way down so check it out. I hope you find something!

I like the Easy Spirit "Motion" oxford for casual wear. All the support, comfort, and walkability of a sneaker, but neat and trim and a little more dressed-up in leather. Comfy padded interior and flexible, shock-absorbing sole. It comes in a variety of widths, colors, and textures, including a very nice croco-embossed version. Not dressy, but looks nice with many pants outfits. Shop around, because this popular shoe is available at the Easy Spirit website and in a whole variety of stores and shopping sites. Usually some places have it on sale.

You can also check the Footsmart.com site or catalog for shoes for a variety of foot challenges -- including bunions.

These are both great posts and shoe options. I was also going to say try footsmart.com.

I too, like "Easy Spirit". I like the slip-on tennis shoes. I have a wide foot and they fit great.

Alegria shoes sound like just what you are looking for. They have a zillion styles and colors--only a few are on QVC--you can see all of them on their website and compare. Their medium width is pretty wide and they have a wide, too. The toe boxes don't narrow down and the soles are crazy comfortable.

Massey's website has tons of comfort shoes. I have one pair of Alegria silver sandals. I love them.

Shiningstar: I agree with pas4116 that the Footsmart website might be a good place to start. They have a line called Footsmart Stretchables that might work well for you.

I get emails from National Clothing. They offer quite a few stretchable keds shoes that are not athletic shoes. I also always look at Foot Smart too!

I went to a local dept store called Belks looking for shoes this weekend - they don't carry any wide shoes. I tried on sizes from 11 to 9.5 in Alegria, Clarks, Easy Spirit and one other brand. The sales girls was very patient but kept insisting that shoes about one inch past my toe "fit". LOL

Easy Sprits are comfortable. StageStore.com has GREAT deals on shoes. They always have different kinds & sizes, I think it's some kind of a store like Marshalls, cause their inventory, sales, discounts always change. I've bought my adult Sons name brand shirts for $9.99, & a Great watch that's a name brand the younger guys like, for my son for 14.99. I've seen quite a few styles in Easy Sprit & good prices on this site as well. Good Luck

I have found going to a local independent store has been a foot saver for me. My local store has very knowledgeable people and they will special order if I need it. I expected to pay lots more, but they are very competitive. If I have a problem, they either fix it or refund my money. I have found online ordering doesn't work well for me.
