18yr Old Needs Size 8 Wide Fitting Shoes For Teenagers - Help!

rowansway · 4 July 2010 at 8:55AM

Does anyone know where we can get size 8 shoes/sandals for my 18yr old daughter who has quite wide feet? Virtually everywhere we have tried seems to cater for those who are over 60!

She's ideally looking for fashionable pumps or sandals - and footwear suitable for working in an office. We can easily get to London if need be.

Mank thanks.

I've got really slim feet so have the opposite probelm. I was looking at shoes in the New Look sale yesterday and found loads that were wide fitting so no use to me whatsoever, I did notice a pair in a size 9 too. Have a look on the New Look website, they have free delivery this weekend too. Not sure if they do wide fitting pumps but hope they do. Good luck. K

just reread your post, I'm sure they had wide fitting sandals and office shoes.

I'd second New Look. I am size 9 and have wide feet and never had many nice shoes til New Look started their wide range which goes up to a 9, I now have 12 different coloured ballet pumps :rotfl:. They also do work shoes, boots, sandels etc.

Another good place is Evans. They cater for larger people so their shoes are wider, and go up to size 10. I do find that in some styles I need to go down a size in there though. They are more expensive, and some styles can be a bit old fashioned for an 18 year old, but they always have classic court shoes perfect for office.

I second Evans - they have great styles for young people and go up to EEE width. There is loads of choice for size 8.

Another vote for Evans!

New Look. Very fashionable and very reasonably priced.

I have the same problem and get loads of my shoes from next - I even found that barratts are now going up to a size 9 - may be worth a look xxxx

yup new look way to go especially since they always have wide fitting size 8 and 9 in the sale. Just keep popping in my friends a size 8 and wide and often gets the 9 for sandels so they fit well. often gets lovely ones for 3 quid.
