About the Founder
Hello and welcome! I launched this site in early 2024 to create the ultimate resource for women seeking comfortable and stylish shoes. After a year of research and testing, we’re up and running.
With a passion for footwear and over 30 years of industry experience, my guides provide a reliable source of honest advice and authentic product reviews. Besides reviewing well-made and comfortable shoes for active women, we review women’s shoes for bunions, flat feet, narrow feet, high insteps, plantar fasciitis, neuropathy, orthotics, nurses, teachers and seniors.
Why I am qualified
With decades of experience, I’ve worked extensively with shoe factories across various countries, including Italy, Mexico, Brazil, China, and the United States. My expertise in shoe-making is profound, allowing me to identify brands that provide the best value.
Over the years, I played pivotal roles in crafting and designing shoes for renowned fashion brands. Leveraging my comprehensive understanding of market trends and pricing, I contributed to offering competitive pricing while delivering trend-right designs that resonated with fashion-conscious women.
Throughout my roles, I collaborated with major brands such as Nordstroms, Anthropologie, Free People, Jeffrey Campbell, Chicos, Sundance, Ann Taylor, Banana Republic, Suggies, Esprit, Bebe, Levi, GAP, Steve Madden, Vince Camuto, Sketchers, Sam Edelman & Camper.
About Our Experience
Before launching Trusty Shoe Guide, I invested a year and a half in comprehensive research. I spent hours testing shoes and evaluating them for comfort, durability, fit, and style. I have reviewed every recommended shoe in our guide.
Recognizing the uniqueness of everyone’s feet and specific needs, we’ve curated a diverse selection of brands and styles. We cater to many foot conditions and have done extensive research to ensure our recommendations align with the insights of podiatrists and orthopedic specialists. Trusty Shoe Guide provides well-informed and reliable choices for stylish and comfortable footwear.
My Mission
Trusty Shoe Guide’s mission is to deliver the most comprehensive, trustworthy, and unbiased footwear reviews online. Recognizing the overwhelming array of options in the market, I’ve undertaken the challenge of doing the heavy lifting for you.
