If you have wide feet, you know how hard it is to find cute shoes that are the right fit and are at least somewhat comfortable. I was so excited when I first spotted these wedges from Naturlizer and immediately started thinking about how cute they’d be with summer dresses and capris.
My foot is a size 8 in length but about an 8.5 in terms of width. Not all of the shoes I wear are wides but I always choose that option when possible, especially when shopping online. I ordered these in an 8 wide and hoped for the best.
They are really super cute on but the instep is too tight and the top of my feet puff up around the edge. It’s not a cute look but it’s a problem I run into a lot. I’m going to try them in an 8.5 and I think those will work.
The wedge isn’t too high at all, even for me and I don’t handle heels well. There’s a good amount of padding in the footbed and overall, the shoe is pretty great quality for $60.
Sistine by Nautralizer is available in four colors and one print, sizes 5 – 12, narrow – wide widths for $60 from Zappos.
I have the same problem with shoes, so I usually avoid going up to an 8.5 if they have a back strap, since the strap won't fit if I've gone up a bit. I've been hit & miss with Naturalizer, I tend not to want to buy them online because of that. Ditto to Silhouettes' shoes.

I like this color of these shoes. I bought almost the exact style of this last year in yellow with white piping- very comfortable. I wear an 11 wide and haven't had any problems with the ones I have.

I couldn't believe you posted these shoes! I loved the first pair I bought (in black) that I went back to Naturalizer and bought another pair in coral!
They make my small, wide 6.5 feet look narrow and pretty. I had to punch another hole in the back sling back so they stay on properly when I walk, but they are comfy and perfect for the summer.
Great post!

My feet are similar and I;ve done well with Born, which sometimes makes very cut, comfortable sandals in cool colors (they also make a lot of ugly clunky ones too, though).
