DB Shoes are the best wide fit shoes I have ever had. I have used them for years, and had many pairs of shoes and slippers from them and never had to return them they fit perfectly both shoes and slippers. They are comfortable and allow me to walk better due to the soft linings and the good fit. they would have five stars but they are expensive even with the vat removed for my swollen legs and feet., Note you don't pay vat on the widest fitting if you have swollen feet and legs, you must ask for the vat to be removed but they do show the price with and without vat. I recommend DB Shoes to all that

One location with 2 shops. The upstairs shop is the general footwear shop stocking lots of different brands including Sketcher, Marco Tozzi and Dunlop at great prices for ladies, mens and children. Access is up a fligh of stairs. The Wider Fit Shoes downstairs shop specialises in wide fitting shoes and shoes with deep toe boxes and is easily accessed by a ramp. Free on street parking.

Bought 2 pairs of DB easy b wide-fitting sandals from a Cleveleys shop. They are both so hard underfoot as to be unwearable even with thick socks. Wore one pair for a couple of hours shopping today. They made the soles of my feet really sore. I never thought it was possible to be traumatized by a pair of sandals. But they made the soles of my feet so red and sore I can hardly bear to look at them again, yet alone wear them. 150 down the drain.
