quick- shoe help!
Permalink Closed


I just got these shoes today:



they are so cute!  But I am between sizes and I don't know what to do.  I don't want to return them altogether...My feet are two different sizes, so the smaller size fits one foot perfectly but is a tiny bit short on my other foot, mainly because my third toe is too long.  The bigger size is big on both feet, a little better on the longer foot, and I kinda think it just looks big- like my heel slips up and they are too long.  But I'm worried about the smaller size on my bigger foot.  My third and fourth toe go over a little bit.  Is that weird??  Does anyone else have this problem?  Should I just put a heel petal in the longer ones?


long ones:



short ones (my third toe doesn't usually stick out like that, more pressed together next to the other toe)

i think the second pair does look a little bit short and you might be uncomfortable if you feel like your toes are hanging off.  putting some kind of pad in the heel of the bigger ones should make them fit.  that's what i would do.

Yea, i think I"m going to keep the bigger ones.  I just can't get over the foot flipping out over the shoe.  Now, what are some good ways to make the heel smaller?  Put a foot petal at the bottom?  Is there anything I can stick directly on the back of the heel on the leather to make it shorter- maybe line it with something?

Yup, that's what I'd do.

Yeah they make these things that just stick inside the heel that are cushiony.  I've put them in the last couple of pairs of flats I've had--they make the shoes fit better and way more comfortable.


Heel LinersI got mine from CVS in the corn/bunion section.  Yum

thanks for the suggestions!  I kept the bigger size and put a heel liner for the smaller foot.  They fit perfectly now and I can't stop looking at my feet.  These are AWESOME shoes, I can't take them off.  I'm so glad I kept the bigger size.
