I also have wide feet and tend to go for casual more than dressy but always manage to get something at Bata shoes usually around 450 - 500 rupees.

Your frrt must be rather dainty Bob, get a pair of flip flops

I have bought sandals from Bata in Panjim - sometimes they have good ones other times I wouldn't be seen out in the street in any of them.
The shoes in Panjim market are, usually at a fixed price, with the price being on the bott-om of the shoes, they cost anything between 80-120 rps. there is a huge selection, I know cause I brought back 25 pairs last year. But I have never seen closed in shoes ie like school shoes, they are mainly sandle and flip flop style and plenty of wedges, which I love.
The trouble with me is I am a "Ooooh I like those, I must try them on" type of person, and they usually don't fit so I end up disappointed! I have a couple of pairs of the wedge heeled beaded flip flop style shoes which I wear for special nights out in Goa and I love them but I would like a nice glitzy pair of "evening" shoes, closed in, not strappy but as I said earlier they are usually narrow and I have wide feet They will need to have a mid height heel as I can't wear flat shoes. To get something fashionable in the UK is hard enough (the wider styles seem to me to be more suited to my Granny) so to get something in Goa may be equally elusive. To make matters worse my feet are usually puffy for the first few days after the flight.
re puffy feet. I use the proper flight socks now. They don't look great but boy do they do a good job.
The shops seem to cater for narrower dainty feet
Yippee!
Mine are size 2 (European 35) and I get lots of fabulous sandals in Bombay Bazzaar in Panjim.

I do use them Fiona but they still puff up a bit for a few days, It's probably also to do with the heat. As the November trip is only for a week it will probably take that long for my feet to return to normal

I've not taken a great deal of notice of men's shoes, but I do know that they sell flip flops and leather sandals in Bombay Bazaar in Panjim.
Seniors in Panjim sometimes have some great styles but can be abit pricey, also Lilliputs next to dehli delbar have wicked kids shoes some of which you never see in uk.
You can have mens shoes made for a fraction of the price they charge in the UK>
If you want some unusual hand made shoes, look here -
Yes LG I've seen these shoes at Ingo market.... a pair of Gents pointy curly shoes would get me noticed!
Bought a pair of those shoes from Ingoes but don't find them very comfortable to walk in - the soles seem very stiff. What we call "cab shoes" look good when you are sat down but not good for walking in
glad its not just me tomitme !!!my husband counted 18 pairs of unused new shoes in my wardrobe last season!!there is a huge selection, I know cause I brought back 25 pairs last year
