So, the shoe makers are making the popular sizes and not the smaller ones since there are less people wearing that size now.

Since kids shoes look grown up now, just go buy your shoes in the kids dept!

I guess my girls and I are average then. We all wear 8-9 depending on who makes the shoe. I'm thankful.. we can usually all share shoes. For some reason though.. I can't get my girls to wear mine all that often.

I refuse to wear those stiletto heels...

I'm way too old.

Also, they have a lot of longer dresses, however, most would need a little jacket or sweater, but at least they are long!

Very cute! Are these the shoes I need to wear with them - respectively?

Almost ALL the stores that sells shoes no longer carry any size under a 6.

So what are the ones of us that wear a 5 supposed to do? Go barefoot?

For the second time I went into a store to try and find ladies dress shoes. The lady that ran the dept informed me they didn't carry any fives, but that I could try the children's shoe dept that they carried 5's. Knowing I had already expressed I was looking for a ladies dress shoe, I asked her with lots of wonder in my voice, "Oh, your dept carries ladies high heel shoes in the CHILDREN'S dept?" "Oh, no but they have sandals!!! Where is the red face anger icon when you need it?

So I remember that someone on NFCF told me about a website that you can order shoes and return them at no cost if they don't fit. So I went shopping today and found the very shoes I was looking for. Unfortunately, the little darlings are going to cost me over 200.00!

I need Margie to start me a writing campaign. And all the supporters that can find sympathy for us folks with small feet, who like to where shoes also!

Well I got that off my chest, but goodness this isn't right.

Where is Newman, she ought to know how to handle this unfair situation.

Although most of the better shoes are made overseas.

I think I am going to suggest a boycott of one brand at a time until they start accomodating little feet also.

I mean how would you feel if you couldn't find any shoes to fit your feet and when and if you do, you pay the price!

Oh well You can start being honest and admit you really are not a size 5 HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Hey, I wear a size 11 1/2 and RARELY find that...they usually have 11s or 12s

I'm Mad TOO, Esther (anyone remember the Eddie commercials?)

I wear narrow shoes. I typically order all my shoes on line. I actually measure an 11 B and I can get away with 11 Narrows with insoles. I shop at onlineshoes.com and the brand name web sites from Johnston-Murphy, Allen Edmonds, etc. Even my tennis shoes are ordered online from New Balance. I can occasionally find narrows and the occasional "B" width at Dillards and some of the finer department stores. And, I DO pay through the nose for them.
