Promising review: “I have very wide feet, thick ankles and a high instep, and I love these sandals. These fit extremely comfortably. I can wiggle my toes and don’t feel squeezed or too loose. I purchased them for a trip to Yellowstone/Montana and while I didn’t feel comfortable wearing them on our rigorous hikes, I did wear them late in the day after hikes and to dinner. They are like walking on clouds. Very lightweight, cool, and supportive at the same time. In the past, I never would have considered wearing sandals on a long day of walking like Disney World, but now I’m sold. I can totally do it in these. I’ll be ordering more colors for sure!” —Renee M. Rascoe

A pair of low wedge flats, because finding shoes that accommodate wide feet can be tricky — throwing a high arch into the mix can make things even trickier! I personally have wide feet with a high arch, and I always recommend roomy shoe with a liiiiiittle bit of wedge for extra support!
