Shoes for men with wide feet

Finding the perfect pair of shoes can be a challenge, especially for gentlemen with wide feet. Beautifully neat men's shoes are often sleek and somewhat narrow. As a result, as a man with wide feet, you will quickly find yourself in discomfort.

Research and data from shoe manufacturers show that about 20% of people fall into the wider-footed category, with men having wider feet more often than women.

In addition, there are many people who may not officially be counted in the "wide feet" category, but still need a little extra room and comfort when wearing shoes. This may be due to foot problems, injury, or personal preference.

Fortunately, awareness is growing among shoe manufacturers about different foot sizes and shapes, which means there are more and more options for men with wider feet.

Finding the correct width size

The average width size is the last width G. In addition, there are narrower widths and wider widths.

• Last size H
• Last size J
• Last size K

Here you could think of H as size XL, last width J as XXL, and width K as 3XL. Most people get away with a last-size H.

There are tables that indicate which width you have for which size and circumference. But in reality, we have noticed that it does not always match. In addition, the shoe may fit in practice, but it must also fit to your liking. The shoe must feel comfy but also provide sufficient support. Therefore, we recommend that the very first time you actually go physically fit. This can be done in the store, or by ordering two width sizes of the same shoe.

Once you know the width of a particular brand, it is easy to order. If you choose a different brand, you will have to try it on again because it may fall slightly differently.
