What do we mean by extra wide fitting shoes?

We’re getting used to seeing wider fitting shoes on the high street as retailers recognise that our feet are getting bigger but if you want extra wide fitting shoes you may need to go to a specialist retailer. Most wide fitting shoes only go up to about an EEE fitting which is fine if you’re slightly wider than normal but they’re not going to fit if your feet are very swollen or bandaged.

Cosyfeet offers a much roomier fitting than the wide-fitting footwear you’ll find on the high street. Our expertise is in fitting swollen feet so our footwear isn’t just extra-wide, it’s extra deep as well which means it’s very roomy. It’s also adjustable so it can fit a range of swelling from minor to very swollen as well as very wide feet, problem toes, bunions, bandaging and orthotics.

We also want to give people with swollen or problem feet the most comfortable, stylish footwear possible. That’s why our designer combines the latest trends with premium materials, expert shoemaking and advanced foot-comfort technology. We also believe in keeping things simple so we offer a single width fitting (EEEEE+ for women, HH for men) that can be adjusted to fit a range of swelling.

Lots of thought goes into our shoemaking including carefully placed seams, comfy insoles and cushioned support which is why we’re recommended by over 11,000 healthcare professionals.
