Big Foot needs footware!!!

[Adrianli]

Hi ppl,

I have very long feet.

US 14/15
UK 13
EURO 47/48
JAP 33cm


I always had problems getting my footware here in SG. My regular hunting grounds, Queensway shopping centre and Peninsular do not have my size. Always go to shoe shop, ask for size 1st b4 looking at the shoe designs!!!

Currently only have 1 pair expanded SAF running shoe, 1 pair leather working shoe and 1 pair sandals. All in size US13. I need shoes that really fit my feet!!!

Need to get 1 pair of soccer boots.



Any kind soul out there got any contacts for large size shoes???

[electric_newbie]

my shoe is US12,and i m only 14

[Adrianli]

Me 16 then need to wear size 12 US




Lucky my feet now not growing anymore!!!

Me US 12/13 for the pass thirty year. Hello all the big foot, hope our brain are equally big!

[Adrianli]

Still no one recommend shops leh.

No choice dude.... u can't get big sizes at regular shops liao..... that means you have to go to those $$$ shops that sell European Brands for ur working leather shoes .... try places like Taka, Paragon.... ...... U can try Queensway Shopping Centre for Teva sandals and sports shoes.... i think they should have more variety and sizes there.... Peninsular plaza ( beside Funan ) underground levels also got good bargains for sporting shoes.....

Dun play play when it comes to shoes.. damn important... u wear a bad shoe can lead to knee and heel problems,.. worse still back problems... if size too small lagi worst: lead to poor blood circulation and then health problems.....

how i know? i tried to save money by not buying new shoes last time and wore tight shoes.... end with chronic lung and cough problems for half a year because the shoe was too narrow and the 'lung' 'nose' acupoint was always compressed.... had to go to foot reflexologist at the end of year to get the problems fixed.....

hey AdrianLi,

i have the same prob as u too.. im using size13 for sandals and coincidentally last weekend ive been searching high and low for it.

i went to peninsula plaza. got one shop selling Nike sandals (that if u need sandals) of size 13, the last storey (4th storey i think).

den i went to queensway, got a teva sandal at size 13 (amazing.. coz most tevas until size 12 only).

for soccer boots, maybe u can try queesway, i got a friend who bought soccer boots at size 13. i think u need to really search high and low.

just my 2 cents..

I went to Queensway and Peninsular to look for sandals but their size 13 US does not fit my feet. Can see my toes hang on the front edge of the sandals. Both Teva n Nike sandals.

In the end, went to Mustafa n saw another outdated size 13 US nike sandals there n tried it. Amazingly it fitted me. I guess the cutting was bigger thatz why. So I bought it from there.

Now looking for a new pair of soccer boots. My old size 13 US boots can no longer fit my long feet. Know of any place to buy without me hunting high n low again?



All my shoes n expensive ones, costing S$150 plus. The damn shopkeepers always give the lame excuse that very difficult to get my size so expensive lor. So I always lan lan have to fork out more money for it.

[rifqi]

anw, i not sure where to get the boots. sorry..

all the best finding.

Juz an update for u guys. I got my soccer boots liao.


On easter eve, went to Queensway to hunt for my soccer boots. From 1st level to 2nd level. Went into Weston Corp and the staff there was frenly n let me try various soccer boots but still all size 13 US boots there cant fit me. Then he took out a size 15 US ruby boots!!! That was too big for me n its damn heavy with the metal studs!!! If I had that n step it on someones leg, thatz it man!!! Then I went over to another shop and they had the same ruby boots in my size. But the sales guy wana smoke me n told me its a soccer boots!!! I asked him how much, he replied S$119!!! I straight away told him too expensive n somemore not soccer boots!!! After abt 2hrs walking around, never manage to find any soccer boots my size.

On easter, went down to Peninsular shopping centre to hunt for my soccer boots. Started from top level to basement. All shops no have my size then last shop at basement b4 I head to Peninsular Plaza thru the underpass. I went in ask for size 14 US n he say no have only got size 13 US. I say can try, he galdly took out n let me try. To my surprise it fits my leg superbly!!! It cost S$48 only, its a Topper brand.

At last got my boots.

But saw a Reebok soccer boots with carbon fiber soles!!! Really like it but dont have my size. Cost S$79. Reasonable.

I name you the most "stable" man in DH.

Why not order from Internet Online? Sure there's a lot of shoes in US & UK tat fits your requirements as their size are similiar to yours....

[Adrianli]

Buying shoes is not the same as ur normally grocery.

Not all shoes cutting r the same.

My feet size 14 US.

Many shops I go to have size 13 US and they cant fit into my feet.

But this shop at peninsular, this particular brand n model size 13 US fits my feet. Other brands dont.



If buy over the internet, size dont fit how??? Anyway I buy my groceries online. www.emart.com.sg. Free delivery above S$50.

Yah....you're right lah....after buying cannot fit...another problem....
