It shuns the sameness of the high street chains, offering individual style at an affordable price.

The line focuses on large formal footwear, and is perfect for those that are looking for good quality shoes to compliment and finish off their outfits for a formal occassion.

The line includes about 11 products, and prices range from about £45 to £90.

The Jimmy Bee WalkTall.co.uk range has been designed with tall and large people in mind, to provide large formal footwear that everyone can enjoy.

These Jimmy Bee Shark 5 shoes from WalkTall.co.uk are a top favourite.

No wardrobe is really complete without a pair of Jimmy Bees for those times when just ‘smart’ is not enough.

With their extravagant leathers and ultra classy, modern designs, whichever Jimmy Bee you opt for will keep you looking up to scratch and up to date for the most demanding, ritziest of occasions.

Another favourite are these Jimmy Bee Vasco 10s.

Another smart/casual piece of joy from Jimmy Bee in the shape of a formal suede lace-up with a hardwearing resin sole.

White loafers add freshness to a Spring outfit and give you an updated and modern look – perfect for holiday or even if you are staying at home.

January Sale: WalkTall Shoe Sale

Angela — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 10:00:44 +0000

WalkTall specialise in big size shoes and tall fit clothing and now, with their clothing sale, there has never been a better time to “bag yourself a big-sized bargain.”

From the clothing sale I am going to look at the shoes available in the sale. WalkTall have a large range of shoes from many different brands such as Timberland, Jimmy Bee, Dr Martens, the list is endless!

The ESPY Phoenix Chocolate shoe is incredibly smart and elegant. Suitable for the office, the wedding, the party…you get the picture; they are very versatile! And they have been reduced from £65.00 to £50.00. This lace up shoe is also available in black and as a pull on shoe in tan and is the same price.

The ESPY Rapier Chocolate shoe has a bit of country and western about them. A kind of crinkly effect adorns the pull on shoe with small wedge heel. This shoe has been reduced from £65.00 to £50.00. A back lace up version is also available at the same price.

The Mortons Liam 3 Beige Boot is a very smart shoe. I particularly like these boots as they remind me of dessert boots and Camden Market back in the 80’s! Obviously these boots are a lot smarter and better made; with up to date style and hand stitched detailing, these boots are a snip at £50.00, reduced from £75.00.

If you like the Mortons boot then you will like the Mortons Liam 3 Suede Beige shoe. In the same style with added detailing around the arch, this lace up shoe is smart enough for the office but casual enough to go with jeans. It has been reduced from £70.00 to £50.00.

The Sebago Foresider shoe is a very stylish deck type shoe with a sole that will grip anything, rounded toe, and lace ups. This brown shoe will take you anywhere. It has been reduced from £100.00 to £60.00.

Another stylish sailing shoe is the Sebago Schooner. This light brown shoe has stitching around the round toe and lace detailing weaving in and out of ring holes around the heel. This is a lovely shoe for casual or smart wear and has been reduced from £95.00 to £70.00.

We all know walking is good for us, preferably up a mountain for at least half an hour, and after the Christmas excess, many of us need to start sooner than later. But wait! You need a pair of sturdy walking boots! But walking boots don’t have to be clompy, they can be stylish too, like the Columbia Vizza Chukka Boots. Their stylish look means you can climb the highest mountain before dining out in the smartest of restaurants. They have been reduced from £75.00 to £50.00.

With football boots, trainers, work boots, and flip flops included in the WalkTall clothing sale; there has never been a better time to get suited and booted.

Walktall’s large size shoes on sale, right now!

Angela — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 09:17:35 +0000

Walk Tall goes to extra lengths to find tall clothing for men. “We know that finding big shoes or tall clothing is a nightmare – because we’ve been there! We’ve scoured the planet to source over 10,000 products, so you don’t have to.” And now you can get up to 50% off on selected items in their sale including large size shoes.

After the summer has passed is always a good time to pick up summer bargains for the next year. Walk Tall has several summer styles in their sale such as flip flops and sandals. However, as some European police have taken the “sensible footwear when driving” law to the extreme making sandals with a heal strap are a holiday must if you are going to rent a car. The Columbia Sun Scape Interchangeable Sandal is ideal. This is a large size shoe which is quick drying and with the option for changing the sandal into a slip on, therefore suitable for the beach and a little trekking. It has been reduced from £40.00 to £25.00. Other summer shoes include the Columbia Nassau Large Size Leather Flip Flop in brown, suitable for smarter occasions – reduced from £35.00 to £20.00. Also the Reebok Hanawi Adventure Flip Flop in black. A classic style reduced from £20.00 to £10.00.

Walk Tall have a wide selection of sports shoes in their sale such as trainers, golf shoes, football boots, and even a ski boot! For a sturdier trainer they also have a wide selection of walking shoes which can be worn as a semi smart shoe too. The Columbia Bugaboot Omni-Tech Winter Boot is hard wearing and stylish. This large size shoe has been reduced from £70.00 to £50.00. If you would prefer something a little more light weight then the Packus Ridge Boot is ideal reduced from £55.00 to £30.00.

Walk Tall have included many formal to smart large size shoes in their sale from slip-ons to lace ups. The Epsy Cutlass 3 Eye Lace black shoe is very stylish in leather with punched hole detailing at the toes. This shoe has been reduced from £65.00 to £35.00. A more relaxed smart shoe is the Jimmy Bee City Leather Loafer in chocolate. It has been reduced from £70.00 to £50.00.

Also available from Walk Tall is a selection of heavy duty work shoes such as the ones from Magnum Patrol. So, if you are in the market for larger size shoes for any occasion, look no further!

Running the rule over men’s large shoes

Steve — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 17:06:16 +0000

Men shopping for large shoes have to toe the line and follow the rules to look good.

Large shoes , like any other, come in all shapes and sizes, so below we look at the some simple rules for picking and wearing the right shoes.

Starting with the simplest rule – always wear a shoe that is a darker shade than your trousers.

Next, never, ever wear outlandish socks with a smart outfit and good shoes. One guy lost promotion at work for turning up at the interview in a great suit but yellow socks.

The only comment the boss wrote on his interview form was ‘yellow socks’ with lots of exclamations and underlines.

Try and match your shoes and belt – black to black, brown to brown. If you can’t black is often a safe bet.

Black shoes go with navy, grey or black trousers

Brown shoes match tan, brown, beige, greens, other dark colours

Tan shoes complement lighter earth tones, blue, beige, lighter tan

Trainers are good with jeans and casual trousers but leave the flashing lights and exotic colours to the kids.

Lots of online stores have huge ranges of shoes in larger sizes – generally this is size 11 and over.

For smart and casual, try WalkTall, the UK’s biggest online men’s footwear retailer.
