Hotter: Fitting Guide
Fitting guide because comfort counts

At Hotter we know that our customers value the feeling of slipping on a pair of comfy shoes. We understand that finding footwear which hugs your feet, feels as light as air and allows your feet to breathe is a right not a privilege - which is why we're here to help you find the perfect fit every time.

Hotter Comfort Fit ensures your heel is softly hugged in place and gives you wiggle room for toes. For most women shoe length is more important than width, so unless your feet are much narrower or wider than average, Hotter Comfort Fit should give most feet a lovely comfy fit.

Extra Wide Fit is available in many of our styles and colours if your foot needs a more roomy fit.

Don't forget most of our designs also give you extra flexibility in fit thanks to adjustable fastenings.

We're here every step of the way to help you find your perfect fit, shoe sizes can vary between brands, so to help you estimate which size of Hotter shoes will fit you best, we've designed a handy fitting guide which you can print at home.

Hotter's EEE Fit will allow up to an additional 6mm of space around the widest part of the foot. Don't forget that all our extra wide fit options are clearly labelled in our catalogue.
