Wide fitting flat shoes

Options
Hi was wondering were I could get wide fitting flat shoes as I have to wear callipers after having a spinal cord injury. Physio recommended Hotters, but I would love something more up to date and dresser! I always have trouble getting shoes and has resulted me in wearing trainers all the time.

    Brantano sell Caravelle shoes . I bought the most comfortable shoes I've ever had there - wide fit.

  • Have you tried Ecco? I have broad feet and have to wear orthotics in my shoes. Some Ecco shoes come with a removable footbed which mean it can be replaced with something specific to your needs. They're not the cheapest but they are broad and comfortable.

    I have these (in red) from Hotter:

    They're broad-fitting, very comfortable, have a removable footbed and aren't as 'old fashioned' as most of Hotter's shoes.

    Hotters have very much come into the 21st century and now have some very up to date styles. Have a look at their website and you could be quite surprised.

    Unfortunately they have sacrificed comfort for style, if you happen to need room in the toe-box. :(
  • Hi thank you all for your replies, much appreciated. Got a pair of Hotters (extra wide) and they fit with the callipers brilliantly! :)
