Sandal Shoes

There is no reason women with wide feet cannot enjoy the same type of shoes worn by women with a normal width shoe. If you have wide feet but want to start wearing women's wide sandal shoes, you can. All you need is a little bit of guidance so you choose exactly the type of shoe that is going to compliment your foot. With some helpful tips, you can stop hiding your feet and step out of your comfort zone.

For starters, you need to stop thinking that you have no choices based on the past. Over the last five years, options for women's wide sandal shoes have expanded so today, you can find virtually any style, color, design, and even wide shoes from any of the top designers. Of course, as long as the shoes are made from quality material and have good craftsmanship, you could purchase shoes from a variety of companies.

When choosing women's wide sandal shoes, we recommend that you avoid styles with ankle straps. While this type of shoe looks great on many women, they can make women's legs look chunky and feet even wider. Instead, a strap going around the back and one across the top would be a much better option but even these should be narrow.

Material is also an important consideration when shopping for women's wide sandal shoes. Buying sandals made from heavy leather should be avoided. Leather could be chosen but the sandals should be made with darker colored leather and again, the straps should be thin. To make the feet appear smaller and thinner, lighter colored leather and heavy straps should always be avoided.

Support is also important. Often, women feel a little unbalanced in normal sandals due to the shoe not being made for wide feet. Therefore, when shopping for women's wide sandal shoes, the shoe needs to provide good support. In addition to making it easier to walk in the sandals, this would also help with balance so the feet and even the back and hips are not strained.

Wedge sandals are also a great choice for women's wide sandal shoes. This style has the support needed for a wider foot yet the appearance is very stylish. The wedge also comes in a variety of designs, colors, and embellishments so you can choose whatever looks best. Just remember when choosing shoes with embellishments for wide feet that the size is on the smaller side. Otherwise, accents and embellishments that are too large would make the foot look even wider.
