I can't find shoes my size!

I have been searching endlessly to find shoes my size. My shoe size is 14W in a mans size. I need the woman's equal in a pump or womens boot. Does anyone know where I can get this for little to no $$$? I am out of work and I need shoes going job searching.

Your shoe size in womens shoes would be a 15 or 16 and I cannot find those in my usual source sites. I did look at Payless Shoe Source, and there are some mens shoes that could be worn with women's suits or slacks outfits and be highly presentable and appropriate. One of my bosses was a natal woman who had women's size 13 feet and often had to buy the more androgynous mens sizes herself. I was a professional level manager and she was two positions above me. Shoes did not really matter. Deck shoes in a black color would do nicely.

thank you. I have been searching around, and I did find some for around $50 so I might try your suggestion and see what I can do.

There are pumps and boots in ladies 16 at Amazon, try a search there, granted the selection in that size is not the best, but there are some offered, not big bucks.

I have found Payless to be a good source especially close to an Afro- American community or larger town. I wear women's 13 w and have no trouble finding shoes there. I know the sizes go up beyond my size but don't know how big. The people at the local store have always been nice to me. I've had a good time lamenting my big feet with other women. One problem i find is that many have heels that make them impractical for a work environment.

Hugs,

Hi Misty,

I have done well on Ebay for shoes but I am fortunate that my size is on the upper end of the common shoe sizes. It would be worth a look to be sure. The internet in general is a wonderful resource for hard to find sizes. Though there is the ever present risk of getting something that doesn't fit. I have been pretty fortunate to date.

Hugs

Allison

Unfortunately, yes, you will pay more for a good pair of shoes in your size. But any shoe that is decently made is going to cost you well into the double-digits, and you want your shoes to last a long time.

Pleaser USA is one I recommend to anyone looking for specifically feminine styles, several of their lines have shoes in size 16. Converse goes up to size 18 (I presume womens?) and their styles are pretty much unanimously gender-neutral.

      My size. A lot of guys aren't 5'3" at seventeen. My hands. It's a less noticeable one, but my hands are very "feminine"? If you know what I mean. My voice. Very high-pitched. I don't just sound like a female, I sound like a little girl sometimes My chest. I've had to stop binding due to frequent aches doing so, and it's not nearly small enough to just cover with baggy clothes My family. They still call me she/her, so that's an automatic out. My anxiety. I might be able to pass better if I had the courage to correct people. Instead, I'm too scared to speak up, so I find it hard. My lack of men's clothes.   Anyone else have these problems, or other ones?

      From what I have read and heard most people are so.busy with their everyday lives and either looking at their phones or in a hurry to notice you out and about.

      This exactly ^^^   I actually really liked games where I was required to play a male character. It felt homey, in a way.

    • violet r
      I can relate.  I have always played a female character when given the opportunity. Not really and reason except I just alway pick them since I was young

      Yes, our little town is having its 3rd annual Pridefest. I've volunteered the first two years  from setup to tear down (though I do take an hour off to eat and drink in the middle).     Then I attend a bigger one a couple towns over that has had some decent entertainment from some semi-famous folks (Laura Benanti, Patrick Wilson, Carmen Carrera, Judy Gold, etc).    This year I made sure to ask off of (weekend) shifts to attend a 3rd one where a group I'm in is in the parade.

      Hi Vicky, I agree with you, so far since the time I've been under the new treating doctor's care, she prescribed me medication, but it's for children lol  luckily  my pharmacy warned me from a phone call not to take the medication.

      Welcome to the party, M.A.     Sounds chaotic haha, I can confidently say that living with only two children the same age is stressful enough, much less three!

      Things hit the fan today. I was reminded that "this is not a gender fluid establishment."   I had changed my preferred name and gender at the hospital on their app. My x-ray report came in with my preferred name and gender. It was not appreciated by the centre. 😬

      I'm not a nutritionist but I've gone on bulking diets in the past so I can suggest a couple things to try. Foremost, food-prep stuff that you like to eat. Any 'real food' that usually sounds good to you. That way, you don't have the time-sink or hassle of cooking for every meal. You're more likely to eat if stuff if it's convenient and mostly ready. For example, I'll spend an hour or so one evening prepping burrito ingredients that will last me the next 3 nights. Then it's just a matter of microwaving the beef/beans and throwing them into a tortilla; takes 5 min.   If you need food 'on the go' often, consider prepping smoothies in advance pre-separated out into individual containers. I personally like low-no fat yogurt blended with fruit and, here's the weird part, those water flavor drops. They add sweetness without dumping in excess sugar. Insulated containers will keep them reasonably fresh non-refridgerated all day so they can even be tossed into a backpack.    Hope of those sparked some ideas!
