Zappos.com is giving me a headache

August 27, 2007 2:15 AM

I'm looking for a shoe like a Camper that will actually fit my feet.

I like how Campers look, but they don't have half sizes, and I'm looking for a shoe that has similar styling (or any cool brownish non-sneaker).

(I'm a 10.5, and I've tried a Camper 11, but it was definitely too big)

Best answer: Actually, I've recently tried on a pair of Campers and the salesperson told me they ran large, so perhaps a 10 might fit you?

Maybe something like Mediums? They are a little bit more tennis-shoey, but they are cut narrow and have some cute designs.

(Also, if you have the chance to try on Campers, go by the Euro sizing; I'm usually an 8 but I have the same problem you do. Going down a size worked perfectly.)

Check out Born for some comfy choices, or maybe John Fluevog if you like really funky shoes!

Response by poster: I'm gonna try a 10... damn I hope they fit!

You can try Pikolino shoes. They are a better alternative to Camper. Sizes are in EU and these shoes are usually worn sock-less so you may want measure your feet beforehand.
