Best Wide Fit Skechers: Our Expert Guide and Recommendations
We have put together this handy guide on some of the best wide-fitting Skechers available this season. Begg Shoes are a leading independent stockist for Skechers in the UK. We have nine stores and many years of experience working with the brand.
How Do you know Skechers are Wide Fitting?
There are now two options within the Skechers range that cater to wider fitting requirements – either Relaxed Fit or Wide Fit. Until recently, Skechers were generally made in one of two possible fittings – Classic Fit and Relaxed Fit. From our experience in stores, Classic Fit is a standard or regular width fitting and Relaxed Fit should be considered a wide fit. We have identified our Skechers wide fitting range so you can shop with confidence.
