Dang, those shoes are hot! *sigh* makes me wish I didn't have size 11 hooves. can anyone explain why the only shoes that seem to be available in large sizes are either way ugly or way stripper-ish?

cause the powers that be think we don't deserve better... after all the Sasquatch is a mythical beast so why make shoes for it?

They have a self adhesive that keeps them in place.

And come in many different styles,but you only need the ball of the foot type.

COOL I'll have to go find myself some. :D Thanks

Well, I guess that I'm kinda lucky...

I can do a women's size 9-10 .....

And I do have one pair of "Mary Janes" that fit nicely and they're a size 8....

But, most of my heels are of the "Clunky" type not the stiletto type...

I tend to teeter on the spikey type heels...

I really don't like to face plant .......

HUGGS!

Donna Jean

It sounds like your feet are about the same size as mine. :D

Something must not be quite right with me. There is no reason this thread and the shoe discussion should get to me the way it has. I dont know what it is but I will think on it and see if I can come up with a reason

No, nothing is wrong with you.I'm sorry this topic made you depressed. Hopefully a designer out there makes a larger size pump.

Lol! I hear you, Dee Jay. I've had daydreams about ending up in the emergency room

with a broken ankle, and trying to explain to the doctor, and my S.O., how I got it! :blink:

Carolyn Marie

I never really thought about that. I guess it's the same as everything. If you wobble don't tense up and you'll be fine. :D

Thanks. Actually while the shoes I have are size 9 and 10 they both also came in 11 if I recall, just not 11 wide.

Joanna you are not Sasquatch. I'm not sure how exactly to make you feel better but I know you are not a monster just because you have big feet.

I have somewhat jokingly referred to the size of my hands and feet as the curse of the Sasquatch (AKA Big Foot), thats where that comes from. Not that I am 7 feet tall and in need of a good waxing

Wow, I'll have to look into that. Victoria's secret, right? And you're welcome.

Yuppers

there are a bunch at www.dsw.com too. I am so tempted to buy them since I have cash on me but I have to keep telling myself that the money is for my letter. *cringe* I must think of the money as spent so I don't compulsively buy two new pairs of pumps. LOL

It takes doing but you can find them. If you are not a snob about it Payless is a godsend.

How well do the payless shoes hold up? I'm open to any brand or store as long as they are pretty and won't fall apart after a few months. I had bad luck with Kole's shoes a few months ago, their shoes fall apart faster then the look a likes from Target.

Oh I found another online shoe store that lets you request a shoe in a size that don't have on stock. So you might be able to find some pumps your size with a brief waiting period. :D www.heels.com

:P~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ to all of you lucky ladies.... gonna have to find someone who wants to trade feet... these are annoying me cant get anyting decent in my size

I'm 9 1/2 men's, 11 1/2 wide (normally) for women's. I can get into some 11 1/2's or sometimes even 11 depending on the brand. That's the thing with women's shoes, they are no where near as consistent size wise as men's. I don't know what size you are Joanne, but even if you have huge feet, you can probably find something nice in your size, it just takes a lo-o-o-ot more work. Somebody oughta start a shoe company just for us transwomen.

usually 11-12w depending on who makes them. No luck in any of my local stores so I will have to go to ABQ to see if I can find some there. I would love a nice set of 2" to 2.5" heels. Nothing higher because at 6'2" im not into nose bleeds with simultaneous broken ankles

If you have an outlet where you live...You may give DSW Shoes a try.

Especially in the discontinued sales aisle.There you can find real deals on name brand shoes.

And I am one lucky girl in guess.I can wear anywhere from a 71/2 to an 8 ladies.My girlfriends

all tell me they are jealous of my tiny feets that allow me to buy oddles of cute shoes in any style.

I don't know if I have an outlet by me I'd have to check but I'm five minutes away from a mall and there is a kohls right down the street from me. Although online stores always seem to have a larger selection.

I wish my feet where an inch smaller. I could never fit in a size 7 1/2. I guess I'll just be thankful that my feet are as small as they are and try not to turn green with envy.

Lucky! It's impossible for me to find new shoes! I'm a women's size 12, after all. I end up just wearing my Converse All-Star's. More than half the people at my school own at least one pair... haha

      What's Cookin'?

      By Lydia_R · Posted

      Been using the wok on the back deck a lot the last few months.  Just got another stock of udon noodles from Amazon and we are using those in the stir fry with onions, peppers and a spicy peanut sauce.  I did this often in the 90's too, but back then I was just using a standard Coleman camp stove instead of this high BTU wok burner.  I've had the burner for a couple years, but haven't been using it regularly until recently.

      I’m a lefty. Learned to be a bit ambidextrous for certain tools that assume right handedness like scissors, but couldn’t write with my right hand to save my life.

      Politicians from a certain group undermine support of LGBTQ groups with stopping funding

      Tangent, adjacent, opposite...  It's still rock n' roll to me.  I don't know about the "in god we trust" part of the money, but I like the lady with the scale.  And then I look left at the Indian statue on my mantel of Guanyin feeding a drop of liquid to the dragon at her feet.  In god we trust?  The lady with the scale?  Maybe this is too binary.  And then on the other side of Guanyin is that kind of pelican wood bird that sits two feet tall that I hauled back from South America through the Panama canal.  The beak broke in 1998 and I carefully saved the pieces (as I usually do) and attached them back about a decade ago.  I used a drill to make a small hole and then put a finish nail in there.  Then a hole on those two pieces that needed to be attached.  Upper and Lower beak.  There is still a seam showing.  I could cover that up, but the beak is a bright yellow and well, it's better with all the pieces in place and I don't mind seeing the crack.  I guess that is the tangent and the other two are the opposite and adjacent. -money  Why don't coders always code the "-" action in their search fields?  It's not that difficult!

      Definitely points to learn and keep in mind.  A bunch of stuff I had put in mental "cold storage" thawed out a bit there and ready again to run through my mill.  As said, a bit long and as usual from her a tad bit challenging.  Overall I see it and can use it as a working hypothesis.

      Yeah.  I like Nebula, that was where I watched it.   I posted the YouTube cause I figured more people could see it.

      We agree on most of this... and the church/state thing is kind of a tangent anyways. Oops. LOL   I think it has long been established that all different kinds of groups have access to public funds. In my opinion, either everybody has access or nobody does. I would prefer "nobody."   Relying on public funds gives the government the power to take it away, and puts that power in the hands of whatever group controls the government at the moment... the news article that is the topic of this thread shows a clear example of that happening.  Organizations trust government at their peril.

      More info on Abigail Thorne here: https://go.nebula.tv/philosophytube and, Dracula's ex-girlfriend, on Philosophy tube.   "The reason why Nebula is so cheap for what it is, is because there's no upper hierarchical group looking yo skim off the top. Imagine how much cheaper EVERYTHING could be if it was like that for every other service or product; if the money went straight to workers, not up a chain of command until it reached someone who did exactly "jack" to produce what's being sold.
