Wide Fit Walking Shoes vs Urban Oxford Sneakers: Which Should You Buy?

Last updated: October 2026

Buy the Wide Fit Walking Shoes at $49.99 if you need extra room across the forefoot, and the Urban Oxford Sneakers at $39.99 if a standard width already works for you.

These are two of the best-selling pairs at Adam & Westcott right now, 243 pairs and 99 pairs over the last 30 days. The decision is not about size, it is about shape. Both sit on the same chart, so the number you order does not change between them. What changes is the room inside, the colour choice and $10.00.

How do the two pairs compare on specs?

The Wide Fit Walking Shoes cost $10.00 more, come in 5 colours instead of 4, and are the only one of the two described as cut with extra width.

Pair	Price	Colours	Size run	Built for	Pairs sold, 30 days
Wide Fit Walking Shoes	$49.99	5	US 6.5 to 14, 16 sizes	Extra width, all day walking	99
Urban Oxford Sneakers	$39.99	4	US 6.5 to 14, 16 sizes	Mesh upper, shock absorbing sole	243
Low Top Skate Sneakers	$39.99	3	US 6.5 to 14, 16 sizes	Anti-slip sole, canvas street wear	64

Do they use the same size chart?

Yes. Both pairs publish the identical chart: US 6.5 equals EU 40, UK 5.5 and 24.5 cm, and US 14 equals EU 48, UK 13 and 32 cm, in 16 complete half sizes.

That is 0.5 cm per half size across the whole run with no gaps, so a man who wears US 10.5 in one pair orders US 10.5 in the other. Measure your longer foot heel to toe in centimetres and read the cm column. If you land between two numbers, take the half size above.

Which pair fits a wider foot?

The Wide Fit Walking Shoes at $49.99 are the only pair of the three cut with extra width through the forefoot, which is what the product page lists first.

Adam & Westcott does not publish a width letter such as D or 2E on either pair, so the comparison is the build, not a number. The Wide Fit Walking Shoes list extra width and a soft cushioned sole. The Urban Oxford Sneakers list a breathable mesh upper and a shock absorbing, non-slip sole. If your usual sneaker feels tight across the ball of the foot at the right length, start with the wide fit.

Which one is selling faster right now?

The Urban Oxford Sneakers sold 124 pairs in the last 14 days against 55 for the Wide Fit Walking Shoes, so it leads on volume by roughly two to one.

Read the second number too. The Wide Fit Walking Shoes put 55 of their 99 monthly pairs into the last 14 days, 56 percent of the month inside half of it. The Low Top Skate Sneakers sit third at 64 pairs for the month and $39.99, in Black, White or Taupe.

Which should you buy?

• Best for a wider foot: Wide Fit Walking Shoes, $49.99, 5 colours.
• Best everyday pair: Urban Oxford Sneakers, $39.99, 4 colours.
• Best for a casual, flatter look: Low Top Skate Sneakers, $39.99, 3 colours.
