Have you ever stepped into your favorite department store, eager to find the perfect pair of shoes, only to face disappointment when your size isn’t available? For women with shoe sizes above 10 or below 6, this experience is all too familiar. As the average American woman’s shoe size has increased from 7.5 in the 1970s to between 8.5 and 9 today, the footwear industry has struggled to keep up with the demand for stylish and comfortable footwear options in a wider range of sizes in addition to, combating the harmful effects of mass production.
Foot size is influenced by factors such as genetics, environment, and age, and it is essential to wear the correct shoe size for the health and well-being of our feet. Despite this, 88% of women wear the wrong shoe size, often due to settling for shoes that fit “well enough” rather than finding the perfect fit.
There’s over 3% of U.S. women that stand at a height of 5’10 and less than 1% of women that stand at 6’0+ wearing above a shoe size 10. LJB Footwear was born from a personal journey and a desire to bridge the gap in the footwear industry for women with diverse shoe sizes. Our founder, who stands at 6 feet tall and wears shoe size 12, experienced firsthand the challenges of finding beautiful and comfortable shoes that catered to her needs. Her early career in retail and corporate environments revealed the disappointment and frustration experienced by many women. We believe every woman deserves to feel confident, bold, and powerful in her footwear choices, regardless of her shoe size.
