A NOTE FROM NINA, FOUNDER OF WIDE FIT SHOES
WHY MUM ALWAYS ENDS UP IN THE “SENSIBLE” SHOES
It's not her taste. It's her width.

THE PAIR IN THE PICTURE
“My mum loves her shoes. They are so comfortable and such a great fit that she was able to wear them straight away.”

Wrong size? She can swap it for free, any time until 15 January.
She's got the dress. The earrings. The bag. Then she looks down at her shoes.
The same plain, “comfortable” pair she wears with everything. Not the ones she'd pick. The only ones that don't hurt.
Ask her what she wants for Christmas and you'll get the same answer every year: “I don't need anything.”
Every nicer pair she tries pinches by lunchtime, so it goes back in the box.
But I've run this business for over 40 years, and I hear the same story every week. She's not being boring. Her shops are.
Her feet are wide. And the shops only sell one width.
Most high street shops stock one width of trainer, because that's what most people fit. So the trainers she actually likes pinch, and she ends up in whatever fits, even if it makes her feel twenty years older. Or she goes back to the old pair.
Do that enough times and you stop trying. You say you don't need anything.
She does need new shoes. She's just given up on finding nice ones that fit.
5 SIGNS YOUR MUM HAS WIDE FEET
You can't measure her feet without her noticing. But you can spot these:
-
Her shoes wear out at the sides first.
-
She wears one pair until they fall apart.
-
She says new shoes "need breaking in".
-
She's gone up a size before, and they still felt tight.
-
She never wants shoes as a present.
WE'RE A FAMILY BUSINESS, AND WE ONLY DO WIDE
Wide Fit Shoes started in 1984. Since then we've helped more than 200,000 people find shoes that actually fit.
We stock the brands people already love, New Balance, Nike and Skechers, in genuine wide fittings most shops never carry. Alongside our own range, Tredd Well.
And there are real people here. If you're not sure what to get her, ask us.
AS SEEN IN
WIDE DOESN'T HAVE TO MEAN MEDICAL
The same brands she'd pick off the shelf, smart enough to wear with a party dress. The right length, finally in her width.
So they fit across the foot, without the extra length that comes from going up a size.
GET HER SIZE RIGHT, WITHOUT ASKING HER
If the size isn’t right, she can swap it for free. Bought for Christmas? She has until 15 January.
