Size Guide

How to measure

  1. Stand on a sheet of paper with your heel against a wall, wearing the socks you will wear with the shoe.
  2. Mark the paper at the tip of your longest toe. That is not always the big toe.
  3. Measure from the wall to the mark. Do both feet and use the longer one.
  4. Measure at the end of the day, when feet are at their largest.

Widths

Most of what we carry comes in more than one width. If the length is right but the shoe feels tight across the ball of your foot, go wider rather than longer. Sizing up for width leaves the arch support in the wrong place.

These are standard US measurements. Fit still varies by brand and by style, and if you wear an orthotic you may need a half size more room. Between sizes, or feet that never seem to fit anything? Call (704) 846-0301. Fitting is what we do.

Paul's take on the Venus

Orthofeet Venus, a women's closed-toe sandal in stretch knit with Orthofeet's hands-free heel. Step on the back, it gives, then springs back and holds. Two bungee cords set the fit once. It is the summer shoe for a woman who has been told to keep her toes covered and give up flip-flops.

Slip-resistant tread that holds on wet pool decks, max-cushion Ortho-Cushion sole with a rocker, removable orthotic insole, extra-depth last, seamless padded lining. Takes a custom orthotic, which an open sandal cannot.

Medium, Wide or X-Wide? The knit stretches, so Medium (B) suits most women whose regular shoes fit across the ball of the foot. Wide (D) if you size up for room or have a bunion. X-Wide (2E) for a bulky orthotic or feet that swell in warm weather. Call (704) 846-0301 if unsure.

Stocked in Blue, sizes 5 to 12 in half sizes. Screened and stocked by Paul Henderson, C.Ped, at our Matthews, NC store. Saturn is the men's version. Unsure which width to order? My width guide walks through it.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Which width should I order?

Medium (D for men, B for women) if your usual shoes feel fine across the ball of your foot. Wide (2E for men, D for women) if they pinch there or you have a bunion. X-Wide (4E for men, 2E for women) for swelling, an orthotic, or when wide shoes still pinch. Still unsure? Call Paul at (704) 846-0301 and he'll size you by phone.

Will my custom orthotic fit?

Most Orthofeet shoes take one, but sandals and slippers vary. Call us at (704) 846-0301 and we'll check this style before you order.

How does the hands-free heel work?

Tie the laces once to the fit you like. After that, step down onto the back of the shoe: the heel folds down, then springs back up around your heel. To take them off, press the back down with your other foot.

Should I order my usual size?

Most people wear their usual size. If you're between sizes, or your feet swell by afternoon, go up a half size. If your usual shoes feel tight across the ball of the foot, choose Wide or X-Wide rather than a longer size.
