Hi,

My gf takes a size 7.5 to 8 shoe and is having big difficulty finding a pair of black evening shoes that don't crush her toes!!! Does anyone have any suggestions of where stocks a good range? Price isn't a problem coz if she gets them it will make my life a lot easier!!!

Cheers,
Tom

my feet are about that size and I don't seem to have much trouble at all...what style show is she looking for in particular, if you've got pics of styles it may be easier to help but I go to China Blue, Korky's, Simon Harte, Zerep...pretty usual shops really...

Try heather shoes down on aran quay. I believe they do larger sizes.

Something like this - definately not 'open toe'!!! But apparently styles like the one in the picture always squash her toes!!!

that style squashes everyones toes!

I have shoes like these i got in china blue, just not so patent, lol, mine are leather and baby platform so about a centimetre thick on the bottom, and about 3-4 inch heel, really comfy and were about 40 euro

My feet are around the same size but I dont really have any problem finding shoes.All I can say is New Look do up to a size 9 and also do wide fit shoes hope this helps.

pretty much every shop goes up to an 8 nowadays, it's my size and I've no trouble.

Try Cinders for that kind of "formal" shoe in that size they do up to a size 42 which is approx 8-9. Prices wide greatly from 30 - 400.

They have two stores in Dublin

One in Newbridge

Another in Galway.

Hope this helps

I have a 7.5 too and all shops have shoes that fit me.

Perhaps her feet are broad rather that it being a problem of being a size 7/8? Tell her to try Next larger width fittings, or try evans - they do nice formal shoes that are wider fittings (many shoes are only a "D" width fitting, whereas the Next and Evans ones go to "E" and "EE" fittings).
Might solve her problem!

Why don't you phone up Fossett's Circus
the clowns shoes are that size

Was in China Blue today, some fantastic shoes on the go, reasonable price, and big sizes

Buddhahood do lovely shoes for bigger feet. On the cheaper end so does Evans.
