Healthcare work shoes
Healthcare Collection : Shoes designed for women in nursing
Long shifts. Endless steps. Constant care. If you're in healthcare, your feet work just as hard as your hands - and they often bear the brunt of fatigue, swelling, and strain. That’s why we designed our nursing shoes with your day in mind - supportive shoes, durable and made specifically for women. Whether you're pacing hospital halls, assisting patients, or racing between departments, our nurse shoes are here to cushion every step.
At she wear, we know foot pain shouldn’t be part of the job. That’s why our range includes styles with bio mechanical footbeds, slip resistant soles, and proper arch support to keep you going all day (and night). Our shoes for nurses are crafted with smart structure, advanced cushioning, and real world feedback from women in the field. We don’t just shrink down men’s shoes - we build smart, stylish, and properly structured footwear just for women, backed by expert design and testing. ❤️
Choosing the right pair of nurse shoes isn't just about comfort — it's about your health. We've put together a list of foot health tips for women who are on their feet all day to help you look after your body from the ground up. From heel support to arch alignment, we’ve got your back (and your soles).
Every pair in this collection is built to support busy shifts, reduce fatigue, and help prevent common foot issues like plantar fasciitis or arch strain. With thoughtful design focused on comfort, structure and cushioning, our shoes for nurses are made to go the distance.

How do I know my size? Do you have a Size Guide?
Many other shoe brands design their fit on a man’s foot mould - even the ladies sizes! Research also shows women often wear a size too small for their foot (probably because we’re trying to compensate for the men’s fit - ugh!). Also things like age, pregnancy and menopause can impact on your shoe size.
As a general rule most women find that their she wear size is similar to their everyday women's shoe size eg. heels, sandals, sneakers. Our main aim is to get you super comfy and supported in your she wears, so we recommend checking a variety of your shoes for their sizing and then checking back to the product you're looking to purchase. We provide very detailed sizing information on each product page to help you find the best style and fit for you (such as wide foot, narrow ankles, high arches) - just check the Size & Fit tab at the bottom of the product page.
If you're still unsure, measure your feet as per the instructions on our Size Guide or reach out to our Customer Support team who are fit experts! Please note, various international size comparisons are also provided on the size guide.
Due to the comprehensive information on our site and the fact our shoes are generally true to size, we average just 5% returns (industry average is 25-30%!!). However for your peace of mind, we offer 30 day returns for Australian purchases and 45 Day Returns for international purchases. So if something isn’t quite right for you, you can opt for a different size or refund.*
Do your shoes have support, like for my arches?
We’re on a mission to reinvent *good* in women’s shoes. So our footwear range is built on 4 key considerations, which we believe are your fundamental stride rights:
1.Made specifically for women’s feet
2.Made for ALL day wear
3.Made for function AND fashion
4.Made with certified goodness (independently tested and certified)
Additionally, the majority of our shoes are crafted with 3 complex layers of support (learn more Inside a she wear Shoe), including:
1. A custom designed signature bio mechanical inner sole (footbed) to cradle your heel and arch plus with a built in metatarsal dome. It’s also shaped to provide better lower limb alignment.
2. A midsole built to lessen foot fatigue, cushion against impact, and to resist shoe over-flex.
3. An outsole made from fit-for-purpose materials with great traction, slip resistance and other properties such as heat resistance.
Why don't you have half sizes?
Half sizes are a little bit of a myth! It is purely a width change, and even though a pair of socks can change the fit of your shoes by half a size, we go that one step further and actually design shoes for different female foot widths - we don't believe in a "one style suits all" approach. So you can choose a style that suits a narrow-average foot, or a style that suits a wider foot. Clever huh! ;)
Our product pages have considerable information on sizing and fit (just refer the tabs at the bottom of the page).
