Nurtures: women's work shoes

Why We Made This

This one goes out to all the care-givers, nurses, teachers, hairdressers, hospo and retail workers - it can literally be sole destroying work…that was, until Nurtures clocked in. An instant fix for aching arches, scrambled legs and battle-weary backs, she’s all about making sure your feet and lower limbs are properly aligned and supported, so the goodness keeps radiating upward, protecting your posture and performance.

Specifically built for female feet (yeah, read how unusual that can be in women’s work shoes), and stocked with sciencey sneaker-smarts, you receive max support, minimum sole-stress, superior slip-resistance plus supreme comfort - All Day. Everyday. For Lots and Lots of Days. And come the new financial year, you just might be in for a bonus benefit, with a little cash back courtesy of the tax man. You see, our certified work shoes may be tax deductible if your job requires specific occupational footwear (check with your accountant to be sure).

Our Nurtures is specifically designed for women with wide feet (yes we hear you and yes, we've got you!). We do not recommend this style if you have narrow-average width feet (we have other styles more suited to your foot type). However, if you have average-wide feet, you will LOVE these babies ♥

Female Specific Fit

Many women’s work shoes are actually made for men. Sry, wot? Yep, it’s weird, but true - shoes that women use for work (including boots, sneakers and joggers) are often designed on a male foot mold. So even though these shoes are sold in “women’s” or “unisex” sizes, they are often made to fit a man’s foot. The problem is that a female foot is anatomically different to a male’s.

So we listened to the science, and designed our entire range on a WOMAN’S foot mould. This means she wear provides better support, comfort and lower limb alignment - WINNING!

Beware the Traps

Boot size: When choosing she wear boots, don’t be guided by the size you take in another boot brand (y’know they are probably a man’s fit). Instead, use your everyday shoe size as a guide. Or check our Size Guide.

Narrow/Wide feet: Have a read through our comprehensive SIZE & FIT section as it lists sizing suggestions and which foot profiles are suitable. For wider feet, ignore suggestions that your wider profile is better suited to a man’s shoes - a male (or unisex) shoe will not provide a proper female fit, especially for your heels, ankles or arches.
