I need wedding shoes that fit orthotics

November 29, 2013 5:24 PM

I'm getting married in October 2014 and I'm starting the search for shoes now as I need to get shoes that will fit my orthotics.

I'm in Australia and have been browsing Paul Carroll shoes and the Shoe Link but haven't really found anything in my size that has caught my eye.
I love Klouds shoes but am hoping there are some more othotic friendly brands out there.

I'm looking for size 37 (US size 6) blue or white shoes with or without heels. I have both 3/4 and full length othotics.
I am happy buy from overseas sites.

Barking Dog Shoes is a shoe blog that specializes in finding women's shoes for problem feet. May be worth poking about in its archives.

I wear orthotics and feel your pain... Have you tried Peter Sheppard? Another orthotic wearing friend I know went to an orthotocist who made her special wedding day orthotics that fit into her (still quite wide and supportive) wedding shoes. Might be worth a try? I wore flats sans orthotics to my wedding (and was in agony) so don't have a more personal recommendation sadly.

Depending on how thick your orthotics are, you could try Shoes of Prey
