I'm a Size 18 — Here's What I Actually Wear to the Gym

My feet deserve the same support as the rest of my body and then some. As a size 11 wide shoe girlie, I rotate between two go-to sneakers: the Vionic Walk Max Lace-Up Sneakers ($140), which is built with orthotic-level arch and heel support. I wear a size 11W, and they fit like a dream: no toe squish, no blisters. Their sandals are also perfect for swimming or post-gym errands. My other favorite is the Ryka Podflow Walking Sneakers ($90), which are designed with a wider insole, so even the standard size 11 fits me comfortably — no need to size up to a wide.

• Support: Amazing arch and heel cushioning.
• Comfort: I could wear these all day.
• Size I Wear: 11 wide (or standard 11 in Ryka).
