Steps Seconds Sale: womens active sneakers

Size guide
What size do you take in your every day shoes (eg. sneakers, heels)?

Based on this, your recommended shoe size is the following. But please read the full size guide to find your best fit!

She wear only offers proper female fit shoes, designed by women specifically for you!

SIZE & FIT:

  • True to size
  • Due to the mesh upper design, these shoes will "give" with wear so it's recommended they feel firm over the foot at first wear
  • Roomy toe box to help promote natural toe splay
  • Stitched-in tongue gusset so not recommended if you have a high arch, high instep or wide forefoot
  • Choose your everyday shoe size
  • If you are usually a half size, go up a size (eg. 7.5 choose 8)
  • If you are in between sizes, choose the larger size
  • If you have a slightly wider foot, an alternative footbed is available for purchase to gain additional internal space

BEST SUITED FOR:

  • Narrow to average foot profile
  • Suitable for wide toes and/or bunions
  • Not recommended if you are wide over the forefoot area or have a high arch due to the stitched-in gusset
  • Not suitable for really wide feet

NOT SURE ABOUT YOUR SIZE OR FIT?

Live chat with us or book an online virtual appointment, and we can talk you through the nitty gritty.

Please read through the full size info in the "size & fit information" tab on the product page. We design different styles to suit different foot types (eg narrow, wide) so each style has a unique fit. We offer comprehensive fit info and size suggestions based on over 10 years of footwear experience and thousands of customer's data and feedback.

General Size Guide - Womens Shoes

Check out all your shoes and if most are one size, you will more than likely be that size in she wear.

Then read our sizing/fit suggestions on the style you are interested in, as we guide you with our expert tips for peace of mind purchasing (eg if you have a half size, size up or down). Keep in mind if your shoes are a man's fit - that's very different sizing!

If you have a mix of shoe sizes, you can also measure the length of your foot and compare your measurements with below. Measuring sounds easy but there are a few tricks on making sure you measure correctly. Our quick video will show you how. Or you can reach out to our team for expert advice - we know shoes!

30 DAY RETURNS

While our size guide is based on over 10 years of sales and customer feedback, we’re all built a little bit differently. That means fitting shoes is never an exact science! Our 30 Day Returns gives you peace of mind that if something isn’t quite right, you can opt for a different size or refund*.

* This size guide and measurement tips are provided as a reference only - we cannot guarantee sizings. Please be sure to read the full terms and conditions of our 30 day Returns offer on the Returns page.

FINAL SALE - NO RETURNS PERMITTED (UNLESS FAULTY).

If you like to save a few dollars, and aren’t fussed if your kicks arrive with a little cosmetic blemish, then our Seconds might just be for you!

What does a Seconds mean? We are a pretty fussy lot at she wear and if we spot a small mark, flaw or defect on a pair of shoes, they're sent off to the "imperfectly perfect" shelf. We then mark them down, you snag a great deal AND we don't add to landfill! Win, win! :hearts:

If you know our brand, you also know we rarely go on sale, so it’s like finding a hidden gem .. just with a bit of character! Please note, that we have a hard rule of no returns on final sale items so please ensure you are comfortable with that before you click the add to cart button.

Full Description

Traditionally active sneakers have very little underfoot structure, flat insoles or aren't designed to specifically fit the shape and contours of a female foot correctly and comfortably. A LOT of sneakers on the market are actually made for men (yes, including those labelled "unisex")! Here are some key features of our new Steps active sneaker range:

Ultimate Comfort: Our sneakers feature a cushioned bio mechanical insole and arch support, providing unparalleled comfort during prolonged wear. Say goodbye to tired feet and hello to all day comfort.

Superior Support: Designed with the busy woman in mind, these sneakers offer excellent support. The reinforced heel counter and padded collar ensure stability and minimize the risk of injury.

Breathable Design: Keep your feet cool and dry with the breathable mesh upper.

Stylish and Versatile: Our sneakers are as fashionable as they are functional. With a sleek and modern design, they easily transition from running errands to coffee with the girls, so you can stay stylish on the go.

Durable Construction: Built to withstand the rigors of an active lifestyle, these sneakers feature a durable rubber outsole that provides excellent slip resistance on various surfaces.

Easy On and Off: Slip them on and off effortlessly with the clever slip on design, with the added security of laces to ensure the correct fit. (NB the tongue is stitched-in due to the slip on design.)

Care & Cleaning

Regular care of your shoes and boots has multiple advantages. 

It will give you maximum footwear performance, will keep your shoes in top-top condition to ensure proper support and comfort (and not to mention safety), and will extend the lifespan of your shoes.

TO CLEAN KNIT MESH

Gather supplies: Soft brush, mild soap, soft cloths, waterproofing spray and bowl of water.
Brush off dirt: Use a soft brush or cloth to gently remove dirt and dust from the surface being careful not to snag the knit.
Prepare cleaning solution: Mix mild soap with water and dip the cloth into the solution and gently clean the shoe (do not oversaturate). Wipe off any soap residue.
Dry properly: Pat the shoes with a dry cloth and let them air dry away from direct heat.
Protect: Once dry, apply a waterproofing spray to shield against future stains and water damage.
Store correctly: Store shoes in a cool, dry place.

We highly recommend our premium shoe care kit.

Supportive design

Inbuilt bio mechanical support, comfort and goodness.

For when you're not running!

A healthier option than typical running sneakers.

CRAFTED BY WOMEN. FOR WOMEN.

In 2013, after a nail-through-the-foot accident on a building site, our founder Stacey set out on a mission to find a pair of good fitting women's work boots. Shocked to discover only men's or "unisex" options that were heavy and uncomfortable, Stacey took matters into her own hands and created she wear's first range of safety boots tailored specifically for women.

Fast forward to 2025, and we've expanded that same commitment to all day comfort and support into a full range of women's work shoes and functional, everyday lifestyle footwear plus a line of accessories.

So, whether you're an engineer, nurse, tradie, chef, gardener, retail worker, or just want (or need!) supportive shoes .. we've got your back ♥

    So comfy!

    I put these to the test today, I’ve had them for a few months now but today I was on my feet for 10 hours helping friends move and I feel no soreness in my feet, none! Yesterday I helped them for only 2 hrs in different shoes and I was in agony, so I decided to wear these today and they’re an absolute godsend. I do need to tape part of my heel/achilles as I have a callous there that rubs too hard against the backs, causing wear and tear to both the shoe and my heel, but that’s an issue I’ve had in other shoes too. I’ll probably try another pair of shewear walking shoes next time because of that, but for now these are still better than any other sneaker I’ve ever owned.

    Active Sneakers - So comfy!

    I love these sneakers. From the moment I put them on, they are so comfy it's like walking on a pillow. They hug my feet and give me plenty of toe room. These lovely sneakers are about to walk me around Japan for 7 days.
