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 have no problem fining heels! Thank the lord for eBay! x
I am going on 72yrs, and used to get womans shoes in very narrow size, like 2A to 4A depending on maker of shoe. I could walk into any womans shoes store and find something to fit, I have a very narrow foot, it is
2A by 11 in mens. I the last many years womans shoes have gotten much
wider. Now have to put insert into shoes. Can anyone help. Love Paula
I’m searching for easy-on heels in sandals or pumps!❤️
I have 3 pairs
I am looking for “regular everyday shoes” for my husband, size 15 women’s shoe. I can’t find anything but “drag” shoes. He wants shoes that I wear everyday. It’s close to impossible. Shoe companies need to start producing sizes of every shoe for every one. Not just the 6 inch obscenely dramatic drag shoes. I don’t mean to be disrespectful to anyone’s choices of shoes, I’m just stating that some mtf crossdressers are NOT interested in those shoes readily available. There needs to be a change in consumer availability.
I have some heels like new 14 witch r 12 men’s
Long Tall Sally is the way to go.
I get most all my shoes either in store or online at Shoe show or http://www.Shoeshoe.com they have some of the widest collection from flats to heels. I love 4+ inch heels but nice 1″ can do the trick too. I absolutely love boots and can get away during the winter with a round toe little heel and longer jeans and it can be at the right price. I’m a 12 wide
My GF found her heels on Rebelsmarket…We had a great experience with Pleaser Shoes

Unfortunately, Payless is about to go under. I wear size 14, but I have always been able to wear some of their size 13W depending in the manufacturer. Despite the lesser quality, they have some cute options and the prices are great. I am going to miss them.
A site I would avoid is Sinful Shoes. Though they have good quality products at fair prices, most of their shoes are for strippers or “look at me!” divas. If you are just a regular girl looking for normal looks, shop elsewhere.
I am a woman with man size feet. I would love to wear pretty flats etc but my feet are too darn wide. I can find shoes that fit size ten but not a d width. I would appreciate any tips etc. And I wanted to tell your customers to check out websites such as Full Beauty or Woman Within. They have boots and high heels in large sizes but I don’t wear heels.
The only place, I find shoes to fit, is Payless. However, my shoes, are size 9, and I can only fit in a size 12 woman shoe.
