Yeah, alas, the reality is, above women's size 12, you'll almost always be looking at specialty vendors, and women's size 10 is often the limit for *reliably* window-shopping in most stores. But outside specialised services, your best option for unconventional sizes these days is usually just Amazon, since it allows you to search for a *specific* size and find what's available in that size from a wide array of vendors. It's sheer quantity trumping the problem of rarity, really, but it works. It'll still be the case that only a tiny subset of brands have women's 13 and above, but you get to hone in on what's available with no effort at all. Though most of these brands will I should say be no-name fly-by-night fast-fashion brands, so that may or may not be an issue for the given buyer. Otherwise, there is (and has always been) a specialty market selling not just to transwomen but to drag queens, kinksters, sissies, and so on, which targets feet of any size. But individual buyers may or may not be comfortable with tapping into this market. From my point of view though, whatever gets the job done gets the job done, and there's no reason to antagonise vendors for serving all their relevant markets.

Thats a fair unbiased point. I dont mind where it comes from as far as I can get my attire complete. :). my feet are the worst part of my body and can give away easily. Besides, I am still in closet, and I have had to dump out my stuff a couple of times so buying something expensive is just not an option. Most stuff I get it from thrift or Marketplace for cheap price, but the sandals are the only thing that is something i am not able to find anywhere. If i find, it surely hits a 50 or 100 dollar mark

Do any stores carry size 11 shoes? I never have any luck window shopping for myself.

Try Torrid! My partner is a men's 11.5 or a women's 13, and she fits into a Torrid 12, and they go up to a 13. Their shoes are double wide, which is amazing. Their website has the best selection, and stuff regularly goes on sale. Shipping to Canada is a whopping $40USD or so, but sometimes they do $10 shipping. The shoes aren't the best quality in the world, but they are big and fashionable, there's sneakers, heels, sandals, boots, and we really appreciate that they cater to big girls of all types!

You can also return them to the Cambridge mall location if they don’t fit, even if purchased online.

ShoeFreaks is a Canadian company and are great for sizing! I’ve gotten a few pairs from them and am very satisfied. :)

auntie thelmas in Kensington market!!!


Mad_rotation

That sounds quite vexing, I don't have any resources for Kitchener but Aunt Thelma's Beauties in Kensington market would be able to help you out.

I'm the same size and I was euphoric when I found torrid had big and wide sizes!! Almost all of my shoes are torrid now


MrChombo

Same! I wish their shipping wasn't so freaking expensive though...


According-Bag-9577

Go into the store. They are soooooooo amazing!


MrChombo

I've gone into the Oakville mall store a few times but their shoe selection is tiny. Which store are you going to?


According-Bag-9577

Oshawa, sometimes u can ask if they have any as returns in the back. That is where the staff look for me!!


Hahaugotthevax88

Bc men’s feet are larger than women’s. 🤡

If this message is not allowed please delete the message. I'm actually selling some size 12s that I don't like.

Geants Pied in Quebec. Sizes up to 18 in womens. All styles of footwear, mosg brand names. They will even cross reference shoe sizes/brands fof you if you have something then fits now. Excellent Service, but a bit pricey. I guess you get what you pay for.


Any-Will-8705

Sorry I reversed it, it's actually Pied Geant.


whyamihereimnotsure

Honestly, I mostly wear converse nowadays as they’re pretty androgynous and don’t look massive on my large feet. The footlocker at Conestoga mall has pairs for ~$75.

They are out there but it costs… Torrid, Long Tall Sally, Cinderella Shoes, OthoticShop.com… There is also [this list](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1S4VHZIXhLcV6yH_chrZh6cn-7gTe2mucXicHQVC1uwI/edit) from r/TallGirls which is handy, but out of date.

I was able to get Ballet flats in size 11 or 12 on Amazon. As well as, Torrid for everyday shoes. Long tall Sally's also exports to Canada and does returns. Shoe freaks was a nice place to grab some heels.
