Thanks Elegran will check out that website.

www.widerfitshoes.co.uk Seven fittings - from a High Street E fitting up to 8E, and their catalogue has a tape measure and a chart showing which of their fittings to get to match your measurements of length of foot and round the instep. Plus, they have over 100 nice styles.

I remember having my feet x-rayed in the shoe shop when Mum took me for new brown lace ups - Clarks. Hard to believe now , but shopping for new school shoes was a great occasion!

Thanks folks for all your suggestions. I will follow them up.

I usually have Hotter shoes, but all the shops in my area have closed down.

Do you remember when everyone had their feet x-rayed in some large box time contraption? ?

Next also do wide fitting shoes although I’m not sure if once you’ve seen a style in store they order them in for you. That’s what happened with some boots I got before Christmas. They are a perfect fit.

If you are able to get to a Hotter shop they measure your foot very accurately, you get a 3D picture sent to you online in the store. You can then use this when ordering shoes.

JD Williams specialise in wide and extra wide fit shoes and are cheaper than a lot of online shoe sellers. Worth a look- they have a wide range.

Look up "Sole Bliss" on line, especially for Wide feet. Big choice and good selection of colours.

If you look at the Hotters website, there's a guide to measuring the width, so you can tell which size to order. It's very clear (must be, I can understand it!) and corresponds to their shoes.
