Trending Now: Evil Genius thwarted in latest (and most bizarre) plans for global conquest, returns to lab shouting "One size fits all...except ME!"
Enabled to expound, sport.woot received this comment:
"I'm surprised to see how many of you are concerned about the width, as I initially pondered that (for the nth time)...until I saw the largest size in the drop-down box(14). Few can relate to the triple-threat issue of 1)ZERO arch 2)EEE width AND 3)"Sorry, we don't carry anything that big" size/foot length...
I hear that in nearly every store, including many outlets. "The Nordstrom Rack" is one of few places I can get the pair(or 2-never more than 3) that fits, hopefully without having to "learn to like them" . FYI their ONE "size 15+" rack has taught me size standards only apply if your foot fits on/in the size guide-after that, simply try it on if it might be wide enough and check brand/size when it fits-Nike's seem to be my largest (@ size 18), my DC's are 17, and my (currently)smallest shoes are Kenneth Cole's "Reaction" line @ 15. My feet are only 1 size, they don't magically fluctuate 3+ sizes at whim, and I'm not attending clown college or hiding my valuables in there. It's absurd and highly frustrating to be unable to get shoes @ Foot Locker, Sport's Authority, Payless and nearly every so-called "shoe store", and I live in Phoenix(5th largest city in the USA)!! I'd gladly shop online were it not for the size inconsistencies I've owned spanning most brands(some high-end{aka $$$} brands/mfrs excluded...I can't afford $100-$500 every time I need a pair of shoes though!). So count yourself lucky these might fit you, cuz I can't even bother trying. Apparently I should just renounce shoes and(been hearing this since I wore size 7 in 1st grade) "return to the other Sasquatch/Yetis"...trust me, if that's where I came from I wouldn't have this problem; I'd be set for life from endorsement deals and be doing guest appearances in movies with my friend Nessie and pet Unicorn.
