Guest guest Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 My 13 year old granddaughter has big feet and is quite proud of them. That is to the utter amazement of her 14 year old sister. The 13 year old likes her long, skinny feet because they are different. Most of us in the family have "Fred Flintstone" feet--short and stubby. love to you, n, and your big feet (said n style:) SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

To Akiba and group My feet do not LOOK that large, but I am waaaaay beyond women's 13,the largest women's size, so I buy men's tennis shoes, athletic shoes,sandals (gorgeous) and at REI co-op (outdoor store) even regular shoeswith laces. My father was 6' 4.5 and wore men's size 16.5 shoes. At my tallest, I was 5' 11" and now (not kidding) I wear men's size 11-11.5 B--and yes, I do look much more like my father than my lovely mother--not bald, though! For deress-up flats, I buy men's tuxedo style shoes(to be worn with tuxedoes), and they come in no end of colors and looklike women's "flats."Love to you, Akiba , and to all of you,nTo: MSersLife Sent: Sat, November 20, 2010 10:31:16 AMSubject: Re: n has wheels!

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 Yeah, I got the flintstone ones too...but Robbin's are like hers, long and thin (well, thin according to my standards) which means he should never have the problems finding shoes that fit that I had...  ~*~Hugs~*~ ~*~Akiba~*~ http://www.affiliates-natural-salt-lamps.com/pages/156.php -- Re: n has wheels!

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 Yeah, my foot is so messed up that the only things I can still wear are crocks...yukk...but I have 2 pair, 1 purple, 1 salmon & 1 pink.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 I have a pair of those rubber Birkenstocks clogs for winter. They are big and roomy so I can wear little footie socks with them. My feet need a LOT of room to spread out. lol Here's a link to a similar pair: http://cgi.ebay.com/womens-8-39-BIRKENSTOCK-red-rubber-CLOGS-yard-shoes-/260691631377?pt=US_Women_s_Shoes & hash=item3cb26e9d11Mine are a weird pinky-orange color. I didn't pick that color--got them at Goodwill:) SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.
