Fit Guide
<!doctype html>
Over 30 years ago we started making comfort footwear using the philosophy that comfort starts with fit. This is why we are committed to offering a full range of full and half sizes as well as numerous widths from Slim to XX-wide in a variety of styles.
The width of your foot is an important factor in finding the right fitting shoe. If you have ever bought a larger size in length to accommodate the width of your foot you may not be getting the best fit. Most retail stores and shoe brands for that matter only offer a “standard” or medium width, but with Propét you can find many width options so be sure to note both your length and width when ordering.

5 Tips for Choosing Your Perfect Size AND Width
- Have your feet measured with a Brannock device every year. Most people’s feet get bigger with age so it is best to have your feet re-measured even if you have been purchasing the same size for many years.
- Measure your feet or try shoes on in the late afternoon or after a full day of walking when your feet are at their largest due to normal swelling.
- Measure both feet. Most people’s feet are slightly different in length or width. When buying shoes use the measurements from the larger foot.
