shoe assistance

I need help finding a nude pump with a wider heel platform and that comes in a wide width. I found this on DSW. Yes or No?

Have you seen these. Super comfortable. I own them in navy. It was a MM rec

What you found is cuter than anything I found on Zappos that meets your requirements (especially the wide heel). I feel like this is a tough time of year for nude pump shopping.

[LoveTrains]

Thank you for the link vigurl.

However I am specifically looking for a pump that comes in wide widths. Also I am hoping for someone that has a wider heel tip - like the part where the heel hits the floor. I do a lot of walking throughout the day around campus and so the wider heels are much more comfortable for me.

For example I wore these all summer, no problem, because the heel is thicker/wider.

They do come in wide with. 

As far as wide heel are you looking for something as wide as your second pick or as wide as your first pic?

A few other options from 6pm:

I wish the heel wasn't black, but if they're comfortable maybe they'd work:

Could you do a wedge instead? A wedge is generally going to be less matronly than a shoe with a wide heel. But as Susie said, this isn't exactly peak nude shoe season, so your options may be somewhat limited. Could you wait until the spring?

I am not a fan of the Bandolinos, but as far as nude pumps with wide heels go, that's probably about as non-frumpy as you're going to get.

I actually have this exact shoe. It's very comfortable.

This is what I was going to say about the wedge.

Payless actually has a pretty nice looking nude wedge that comes in a wide. It's suede, though... But perfect for winter!

I like the second option that Susie posted better than the Bandolinos. My issue with the Bandolinos is the different color platform, which gives the appearance of a thick rubber sole.

I have to leave here but I will try to poke around more later too.

This is the Payless wedge I was talking about. They are made by the same brand that makes the flats that everyone likes.

Sorry not in the nude I don't see them. Am I missing something? 

[LoveTrains]

So I have a very similar naturalizer shoe in black that I have been rocking for a year! I love the wide heel. I am sorry if that makes me frumpy.

I could totally do a wedge. Thanks for your help guys. I am fat, too, and I swear I just look wobbly and unstable on anything that isn't that wide. Like I love those Loubs that v has in black but I could never wear a shoe like that.

And also, I didn't realize that nude pumps had a season and that we are out of it. I guess I was trying to find non-black pumps that are appropriate for work for fall/winter. So if there is a different color out there I should be looking at - brown maybe, red? - let me know.

No the link is funky.  When I click the link the wide does not come up but if I go to website the click wide then you see it is available in wide in all the sizes.

[LoveTrains]

Thank you vigurl. that is weird that it wasn't coming up when I clicked on the link, but I see them now.

[formerlyak]

Does it have to be closed toe, or can it be peep toe. I have a pair that meets your criteria, but it is peep toe. I believe it is a Naturalizer pump.

[formerlyak]

This is the one I have in black leather, but it comes in lots of colors including various nude shades and comes in wide widths.

You are welcome. I am not sure if the heel is wide enough for you though but it certainly isn't a pointy stiletto

Ditto others on the wedge! I think a nice wedge looks good on pretty much any body type.

Nude pumps can be tricky to find at this point in the year - what about chocolate brown? I wear too much black to have brown shoes, but that's going to be easier to find this time of year. I'm happy to do some digging for you.

The first pair that susie posted comes in a few nice shades.  I like the ones that aren't two toned.

But I wear nude pumps year round.

Here is a good pair, and very MM!

What about these? See by Chloe....

And....I wear nude shoes year round too. Manufacturers just make them more in the Spring / summer seasons given demand.

[Susie]

I agree with the wedge suggestions; I wear a lot of wedges for the walkability factor.  I also wear nude shoes a lot of the year.  Probably not Dec-Feb, but the other 9 months, sure.  Especially with my navy blue pants. 

I posted the 2-tone above because it had some nude on it, but I do like this color of the first shoe I pip'ed above:

Or, I think I do online.  It could be too orangey IRL (I have had Nine West arrive in a similar color, and ICK IRL even though online they looked like they had potential).  For $40, it might be worth finding out.

I have the pair you pictured in the OP. I got the wide, but oh my gosh. They are not very wide at all. Aside from them being too narrow, they are super comfy though.

Too tall and WAY more than I want to spend.
