A beautiful pair of shoes or high heels can instantly make you feel more feminine and attractive.
But do you struggle to find stylish women’s shoes in your size?
In this article, I share my top places to shop for shoes for trans women and crossdressers – particularly if your feet are US women’s size 13 or larger!
How to convert between men’s and women’s shoe sizes
But first, let’s talk about how to convert between men’s and women’s shoe sizes. This actually varies a lot from country to country.
In the US and Australia, there’s approximately a 2 size difference between men’s and women’s shoes.
To find your women’s shoe size, simply add 2 sizes to your usual men’s shoe size. For example, a men’s US size 11 would be women’s US size 13.
If you are in the UK, Europe, or Asia, things are much easier since there’s no difference between men’s and women’s shoe sizes.
However, regardless of the size, keep in mind that men’s and women’s shoes are shaped slightly differently. Men’s shoes are usually wider at the heels.
For that reason, I always recommend trying on shoes before you buy them, rather than relying on the numerical size alone.
Now that you know your shoe size, let’s go shopping!
Long Tall Sally
The ultimate shopping destination for tall women, Long Tall Sally offers large size women’s shoes up to a US size 15. This UK based e-commerce site offers service and shipping within the US, UK, EU, and Australia.
Pleaser Shoes
While Pleaser Shoes prides itself on being the leader in sexy footwear, they offer a range of styles – from sexy to classic and pinup to goth. Most importantly, they offer women’s shoes up to a size 16.
Update: Our lovely reader Jolene has shared that with Pleasers, depending on the style of shoe, a trans woman or crossdresser may need to add THREE sizes to their male shoe size.
FSJ Shoes
FSJ Shoes is a China-based shoe manufacturer that offers a huge array of styles up to a size 15 US. Best of all, they also offer custom made shoes at affordable prices so you can make any shoe dream come true!
Zappos
Being the largest online shoe shop, it should come as no surprise that Zappos offers a wide range of shoes for women with big feet. Zappos also has a generous one-year return policy that includes free return shipping.
Amazon
Amazon has a surprising large selection of women’s shoes up to size 16, including pumps, flats, sandals, boots, and more. As an added bonus, many items are eligible for Prime delivery and free returns.
Payless
Who doesn’t love a good deal? While Payless only offers women’s shoes up to a size 13, they are a great option for affordable footwear if your feet are on the smaller side.
Ebay
Let’s not forget about good old eBay! Ebay has a huge selection of transgender and crossdressing shoes at some incredible bargains. The best part is that you can search for women’s shoes up to a size 19!

I’ve purchased Pleaser high heel pumps through enfemmestyle.com and I think they have sizes up to USA size 16. My men’s shoe size is 11-1/2 but En Femme only has full sizes but the size 13 pumps fit, a little tight but they did break in to being comfortable after about a month or so.
My problem with shoes is width. In men’s shoes, I take a size 13 with a width of EEE. Women’s shoes don’t come that wide as a rule. Right now, I have 1 pair if shoes, ballet flats. I need more shoes, but my width is the problem. If you can help me, I would appreciate it.
your right they don’t normally n that size so think probably thing for you do go ahead n buy closest size u can wear then get a widener for self an widen out to size need or may have to special order them which might cost more but at least youll have right fitting shoes n not have worry bout em hurting you’re feet third option seek out certain store’s n area that have them in start buying shoes from those store’s they always like repeating customers
Unfortunately, you need a cobbler (shoemaker) my friend. There are real women in your size (a small number. but still some) that are in the same boat.
I wear 7.5 which is a very popular size for women, so I’ve been able to buy mine just about everywhere, Aldo, Macy’s, Forever 21, et al. Tamara Mellon has beautiful pairs although very expensive shoes. I favor high heel sandals so I can have my toe nails polished.
Hope you like this pair they’re Steve Madden sandals.

Love Wedges,
I have been getting my shoes and boots from Shoe Show, Inc. Shoe Dept. Encore. They carry a nice selection, also in wide. I have bought several pair in sizes 12 and 13 that are very comfortable. The site is easy to navigate and Great prices. Shipping is fast and reasonable if not free. Just a few of my collection here. I have trouble finding socks that aren’t 6-10, I like the 8-12 size Thanks for more options for shopping.
