For some reason the manufacturers are not universal when it comes to sizes. I hope you find a solution to you problem. I would just go with your gut and talk to the shoe guys at the stores. Take care Val and good luck.

I was about 24 and I loved those things. I have always had a broad foot and squeezing my feet into a medium could be a bit of a challenge. No wonder so many of us have feet problems. I always wear flatties now because I sprained my ankles so many times, I wonder why? ;) Good sense DeniseinVAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494518513936310345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984234400935984998.post-36553018578959995552013-03-21T16:13:09.763+00:002013-03-21T16:13:09.763+00:00Wow, you have tiny feet Val!

But I do think most people's feet shrink a bit over the years. <br /><br />Too bad some other parts don't shrink on their own. I can think of some areas I'd appreciate some shrinkage, like my thighs, LOL. :<) <br /><br />Geraldine https://www.blogger.com/profile/07410019941984295767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984234400935984998.post-90694060914380725552013-03-21T14:37:27.416+00:002013-03-21T14:37:27.416+00:00Hi Ron.... yet the chiropractor says it's not ...Hi Ron.... yet the chiropractor says it's not possible for feet to reduce in size. Isn't that strange? I'm wondering if it's all a matter of how much flesh we have on our bones?? I'm going to ask him next time I go. Sounds very much as if your TJ Maxx is the same as ours, perhaps it's a different name because it's a different country.... taxes and all that!

Unfortunately the better one is just that bit further away... smiles.<br /><br />Afternoon, Kath. Nice to see you. I used to wear Hotter shoes until the soles on a few pairs (stored over the summer months) began to disintegrate. I was literally walking without a heel one day, leaving a trail of rubber (or whatever) bits.

When I do buy shoes, it's usually "Born" brand or "Ariat" or something similar. And they're super comfortable and last forever.
