As a woman with big feet, there are various struggles you would encounter on a daily basis, and some specially when you want to buy new shoes. Here are five things women with big feet can relate to.

1) Shoe sizes are so hard to find

Most shoe sizes for women are very limited. If your size is anything above 44, it’ll be easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for you to easily find your shoe size in the market.

2) Constantly hearing “your feet are too big for a woman”

Whenever you hear this, you just want to break someone’s head. Do they want to cut a chunk of your foot off so it’ll be smaller? People should mind their business before you change it for them.

3) Buying shoes from the men’s section

If you have big feet and you love sneakers or slides, then buying from the men’s section is not new to you. However, you have to deal with their lack of fun colours like pink and purple. Must everything be black?

4) Scarcity of fine shoes

The few times you’re able to actually find your shoe size, they’re ugly. Why? Women with big feet deserve nice shoes too!
