It's Official#Nobody carries shoes my size

**Diemen** · 06-13-2005, 04:20 PM

Alright, I know I'm freak-of-nature tall, but holy hell can I buy a pair of shoes that fit me without having to scour the globe??

I just spent 2 hours checking out every decent shoe store in the East Bay and no one carries a decent pair of running shoes my size. And if they are my size, they're either those fugly basketball shoes that look like someone took a piece off the Michelin Man and called it a shoe, or the even fuglier Nike Shox.

I wouldn't mind having my feet shrink two sizes. With no effect to....other body parts.

You gotta hit the 'net! It's not as fun as shopping all day, but I've heard good things about Zappos.com - huge selection and they pay for returns. Or Nordstrom.com

Big socks!!!!!

zoney! · 06-13-2005, 07:36 PM

damn, I thought we found some nice shoes for you at Zipperheads in Philly.

**Diemen** · 06-13-2005, 10:38 PM

Heh. Not quite my style. Too many buckles.

Zappos.com seems to be quite good though. Good selection of running shoes in larger sizes.

I'm going to order a couple different pairs and see which fit best.

Sparkysgrrrl · 06-14-2005, 10:54 AM

Well I have big feet for a lady and if I want dress up shoes, I have to go to the used clothing stores to get drag queens old shoes.
But they have great taste so it's cool

U2Girl1978 · 06-14-2005, 11:07 AM

Zappos

I ordered 2 pairs of shoes from them at about 4pm on Thursday afternoon. They arrived Friday afternoon. This was free shipping, too.

Schweet.

Here's the running shoe I decided on

It's like walking on pillows.
