Heel Heights, Width

We have a great collection of shoes and evening bags for your very special occasion. There are many heel heights, widths, and sizes to select from. We have listed below some of the things you should keep in mind before you order your shoes.

The shoe manufacturers measure a heel height from the inside of the heel and not the back of the heel. You might find that if you measure a shoe from the inside there will be almost a half inch difference to what it measures on the back of the shoe. You will find that most seamstresses measure the heel from the back of the shoe.

Heel heights will proportionally get higher as the size of a shoe becomes larger. The heel on a size 5 shoe will not be as high as a size 11.

WIDTHS The way we show the width of a shoe is as follows:

N = Narrow width = to AA
M = Medium width = to B
W = Wide width = to D
WW = Wide Wide width= to EE

How to Measure
The easiest way to do this is to stand on a piece of paper, on a hard surface. Mark the end of your heel and the tip of your longest toe. Then mark the edges of your foot at their widest part. Then take a ruler and measure the distance from heel to toe and side to side. If you measure between two sizes, always move up to the larger size.

Our shoe widths are the same widths used by the footwear industry. A Women's regular width is the equivalent of a "B" width and our Women's wide width is the equivalent of a Women's "D" width.

Each inch contains 16 centimeters. Each centimeter is a portion of your shoe size. Count from the first line to the last. Always find the longest part. If you fall between a size, order the next 1/2 size up. If you fall right on the mark, and are dying your shoes, for a better fit, and more comfort, order an additional 1/2 size up.
