Women's shoes in large sizes in Australia
ASOS
The online fashion giant ASOS has a huge range of shoes in size 9 UK. Plus, hundreds of their own exclusive ASOS DESIGN styles are available up to size 10 UK / 43 EUR / 12 US - all at very affordable prices.
They even have videos for the shoes so you can get a true idea of each style.
With free shipping (with minimum spend) & free returns available for many countries you won’t be out of pocket if the shoes don’t fit either.
Dr Martens
Iconic brand particularly popular with students & festival goers.
Many Doc Marten shoes & boots are unisex and available up to size 13 UK / 14 US / 48 EU with a small number of styles going up to size 15 UK / 16 US / 50.5 EU.
Docs are expensive but should last a long time. Shipping & Returns are free for many countries.
Allbirds
Allbirds unique casual & running shoes are made with natural materials (wool & trees!) in a sustainable way.
Their men's & women's styles are exactly the same, so women can buy these unisex shoes up to size 15 US, 13 UK or 47 EU. Shoes are medium width but they can stretch to accommodate wider feet.
Allbirds also offer free returns and a 30 day trial, so you can still get a refund even if you have worn the shoes which is very unusual!
NB for USA: Allbirds primarily use US sizing now, and on their US site, women should choose the men's size approx 1.5 smaller than their actual shoe size. So if you wear a size 12.5 women's US, choose the men's size 11 US. For other regions, they convert the sizes so just choose your usual UK or EU shoe size. It's a bit confusing but I have found their online support very helpful, so just reach out if you are unsure.
There are separate websites for several regions e.g. Allbirds UK, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, USA & Canada
