When they say the shoes make the outfit, it is especially true when you start crossdressing. Today’s topic is on how you can make sure you pick the right pair of heels for your feet as a biological man ready to crossdress.

While you may have spent years buying your own shoes as a man, you will find that the criteria for finding the perfect heel will be very much different from what you are used to. Due to the size and structure difference between the average man’s and woman’s feet, you can’t follow the same sizing guide as a woman either.

When buying heels for crossdresser & transgender women, you need to follow a completely different set of guidelines as the supply for heels for men is non-existent. All you can do is peruse the women’s section until you find a fit that comes closest to your feet.

What makes it a bit difficult is that you have been brought up buying shoes to meet the criteria of the gender you are biologically. Now, you have to unlearn all that and learn how to buy shoes for the gender you want to be. Not taking the time to do the research will lead to several dollars wasted and many outfits being ruined.

To help you buy heels for crossdressing, we have put together a guide for those of you who haven’t yet bought your first pair of heels.

Buying heels for flat and broad feet when crossdressing

What’s really great for a crossdressing women is that some women’s feet are wider than the average. Therefore, certain manufacturers and brands create shoes that cater to wider feet. This is where you, as a biological man, will have the most luck in finding the right fit.

There are a few options that you can choose from. When you have wide feet, you can opt for a shoe with a thick heel and a mid-height high heel. Ankle boots with a medium heel, heels with straps, v-mouths, pleats, and shoes with tassels are all great options to give the illusion of having a thin feel.

What you should not do is buy high-heeled, pointy-toed shoes that you see supermodels wear just because they look incredibly hot in them. Those shoes were literally built for them, not for biological men with manly feet. You should also avoid shoes that have shallow mouths meaning shoes that leave the top area of your foot and toes exposed.

Find out your full foot size

You have to start off by measuring the exact length and width of your feet.

• Measure the length of your feet by holding a measuring tape from the top of your toe all the way to the bottom of your heel.
• Next, measure the width. Heel straps usually go over the widest part of your foot, so that is where you need to measure your width. When measuring, make sure you put all your weight onto your feet as the pressure against the floor will widen your feet, and the heel you buy needs to allow for that to happen at every step.
• Using these measurements, pull up a men’s foot size chart and find your exact size.
• Now, pull up a chart that gives you the corresponding woman’s foot size to that of the man’s foot size. This is what you use to buy your first pair of heels for crossdressing.

You should note that your whole foot could possibly be wider than the sole of the heel you are purchasing. So, keep that in mind for comfort, longevity, and injury protection.

Buying heels for big feet when crossdressing

Having large feet is a problem most commonly faced by biological men. It can’t be helped; it’s in the genes. Although you can’t naturally drop a few sizes down as you would with a bigger waistline. There are ways to make your feet appear smaller.

You should wear shoes that are rounded and pointed towards the end and heels with straps that all have a round point towards the end. This shape of shoe gives you the illusion that you have smaller feet than you actually do.

Stay away from square-ended heels or shoes with big-rounded toe finishes. As this will be a dead giveaway as to how large your feet really are. You should also avoid thick-soled shoes. Remember, when crossdressing, your goal is to make everything about you seem smaller than it is to pass as a woman if that is your goal.

Let’s recap

In summary, when shopping for your first pair of heels for crossdresser & transgender women, make sure to pick the heels that are not too high and shoes that do not have a wide finish near the toe area. Your aim when crossdressing is to find shoes and heels that give your feet the illusion of being thinner than they actually are.

Like we always say, you are discovering a new version of yourself. Things will take time, and you won’t get it right the first time but make sure to have fun along this journey of self-discovery. And Try to learn to love your true self for who you are and not what others think you are.
