Finding Your Perfect Fit The Importance of Shoe Widths for Comfort and Health

As someone deeply passionate about footwear, I often come across a wide array of questions from individuals seeking the perfect fit for their unique needs, especially when it comes to shoe widths. Understanding shoe widths can drastically enhance your comfort, prevent foot ailments, and ultimately ensure the best feet-health.

At Lucky Footwear, our primary goal has always been to provide you with shoes that not only look good but feel good too, no matter the width of your feet. Our dedication to offering a range of widths, from narrow to extra wide, is evident in the diverse collection we carry from brands like Drew Shoe and Orthofeet. These brands are renowned for their meticulous attention to detail in delivering shoes that fit different widths, ensuring everyone finds their perfect match.

Why are shoe widths important?

While length is a common consideration when purchasing shoes, width is equally significant. A shoe that's too narrow or too wide can lead to discomfort, blisters, or more severe foot problems. The right width gives your feet enough room to breathe and move comfortably, preventing any undue pressure points.

For example, Drew Shoe offers a spectrum of widths from AA (extra narrow) to EEEEEE (extra wide), ensuring that you find a shoe that cradles your foot perfectly. Similarly, Orthofeet specializes in wide and extra-wide styles, perfect for those with specific medical needs or who simply seek more comfort in their daily wear.

Expert tips on finding the right shoe width

• Measure Your Feet: The first step is accurate measurement. Use a Brannock Device or visit a local shoe store to measure both the length and width of your feet. Remember, one foot is often slightly larger than the other, so measure both and consider the larger size.
• Know Your Brand’s Fit: Different brands can vary in sizing. While Drew Shoe might offer a generous width, others may feel snug. Always try on shoes from new brands, or consult their sizing charts online.
• Consider the Toe Box: A roomy toe box can make a world of difference. Shoes like those from Orthofeet are designed with this in mind, reducing cramping and improving overall comfort.
• Don’t Ignore Arches: The width isn't just about the ball of your foot; the arch area needs room too. Shoes with good arch support can accommodate your widths better and subsequently, enhance comfort.

Understanding your foot's width and choosing the appropriate shoe isn't just about comfort; it's a crucial part of foot health. At Lucky Footwear, we're here to guide each step of your journey to finding that ideal fit. With the right width, you’ll walk confidently, comfortably, and stylishly every day.

So next time you’re shoe shopping, remember the magic of the perfect width, and let us help you find that flawless fit.
