Big feet

Post by Fohls » Tue, 26 Jul 2005 3:18 pm

Anyone know where I can get decent men's shoes for a reasonable price? I need around a UK 11-11.5 (US 12, Euro 46)?

Everbest is the name of a Shoe Boutique here.. you may find one of this at Wisma Atria.. but don't know if they actually do have this size....anyway whats wrong with St Michaels? I believe they carry such sizes and besides they have good quality stuff too.

Cheers

the image is still in my head Fohls, you hanging at the edge of the pool at Musicfever's party, your feet high in the air on the dry...

As I remember also that Frodo had this problem, you might wanna try this online shop: http://www.classbrain.com/artholiday/pu ... umes.shtml

Missy's suggestion is good, Royal Sporting House: Rockports. If that store doesn't carry your size, they will be kind enough to call around to their other outlets to locate a large size. Good Luck--I have a 14 yr. old boy with the same problem--BIG feet. :wink:

We wish you luck, I doubt your boss wants you coming into work barefoot! I'm sure you wouldn't mind, though. :wink:

Really which outlet? The one I went into on Saturday laughed at me, as did pretty much every place i tried... I am thouroughly depressed :-( Capital of consumerism but not for people with feet larger than a size 10 (uk)... I got looked at like a freak!! Surely I'm not the only person in Singapore with UK 11s? There must be a fair percentage of people especially Expats that have larger feet. The only places I found that did carry larger shoes were ugly as sin, old fashioned, super over priced, or just plain uncomfortable...

Seriously thinking about setting up a +UK11 size shoe shop exclusive for men and women with bigger feet, import them from UK and US, could make a killing!!
