krazykev64 Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 (edited) As we all know it is not very easy to buy womens shoes, especially heels in sizes larger than a UK10 (US11 & EU43) If you know of a supplier let us all know. dont post up a picture. All we need to know are the following details maximum size. country of origin. and most importantly, their website details I will start you all off with one I recently found that i intend to purchase from. I will let you know how i get on http://www.just4birminghamjobs.co.uk/ They stock sizes up to UK11 and are UK based. It seems as if they sell discount designer brands Edited October 26, 2016 by krazykev64
at9 Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 (edited) As I commented on a previous thread, there's something a bit odd about this website. Despite its.co.uk domain name there's some evidence that the company is actually in China. Look at the CN that appears in the registration details here: http://www.scamner.com/check/just4birminghamjobs.co.uk If you look at their shiiping and tracking page, it suggests they aren't in the UK. http://www.just4birminghamjobs.co.uk/-ezp-15.html if you decide to order from them please let us know how you get on.

krazykev64 Posted October 27, 2016 Author Posted October 27, 2016 Here is another UK based company. They only sell size UK9 TO 13 heels. Most have a 7'' inch stiletto with a 2'' platform but they do sell a couple of flats as well as a 5'' The quality is very good and the price is also very good. Its where I got the green heels for my 5 mile charity walk. They dont have many choices but what they do sell is very nice especially if you like courts / pumps. The sizing is especially for men and true to size (for me anyway) http://www.nooshoes.co.uk/
Jura Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 I've found a couple of good shops whilst travelling around Europe. I'll leave out places selling the Pleaser range, as they're available all over the place, but these shops sell more 'fashionable' shoes. https://www.zalando.co.uk/women-home/ Just bought a pair of Jeffrey Campbell Lita's through this site, fast delivery and 100 day return policy, not that mine will be going back! Very happy. https://www.ghigocalzature.com/en/ Excellent shop in Milan that do mail order too. I have three pairs of shoes from here, very well made and accurate sizing, though I have had heel trouble on one pair of ankle boots (I'm a good bit heavier that their target customer though!). I've only ever bought in person in their Milan shop, where they are very friendly and helpful. I've also shopped in person at Big Shoe in Amsterdam, but their website is down, which doesn't bode well. I found this place, and others, through this website though, some good leads; http://www.prettybigshoes.com Hope that helps 1

Strumpher Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 These folk do some really steep beauties, probably not for wearing on a country ramble mind http://stores.ebay.com/refuse-to-be-usual/FETISH-FOOTWEAR-/_i.html?_fsub=2304053012 1

My heels from china arrived today but there is a problem. they sent me the wrong item. they sent me a pair of NIKE trainers instead. im just waiting to hear back from them so i can return them. i think this is a genuine mistake as there is a lot of difference between a stiletto peeptoe boot and a trainer. Nice trainers though. i think the seller is honest but what impressed me is the speed of delivery. in the past i have had to wait nearly 6 weeks for an order to arrive. these took just 12 days. i will of course let you know what happens 1
Strumpher Posted November 8, 2016 Posted November 8, 2016 That's really annoying but hopefully will get sorted out soon. I'm expecting a delivery from China and have the tracking number which tells me it took two days to get to the UK... and has now been sitting in a distribution hub in Middlesex for three days! Speaks volumes

at9 Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 Since Dutch men and women are some of the tallest on the planet (on average) perhaps they also have bigger feet than average. Hence the abundance of women's shoes in larger sizes. 2
Strumpher Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 Also the fact it's terrain is so flat, people are desperate to gain a sense of altitude 2
at9 Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) This reminds me of the Gog-Magog Mountain Rescue Society which a friend told me existed man years ago. For those unaware of the joke, the Gog-Magog hills are a range of VERY low (under 300 feet) hills near Cambridge, England which is in a very flat part of the country. I suspect it was a Cambridge University drinking society. Edited November 9, 2016 by at9 1

I'll show you a few places which are higher than @at9's Gog-Magog mountains. you need more than 6" heels to look over them. 1 small or big doesn't matter, wear your heels proud .... that is!
Rockbass19 Posted November 14, 2016 Posted November 14, 2016 I just posted some US13 wide width boots for sale, for anyone interested.
Gudulitooo Posted November 16, 2016 Posted November 16, 2016 Krazykev, here in France we have a great listing with all the online stores http://www.grandshopping.fr/internet/chaussures-femme All in french. Femmes = women. Hommes = men. Pointure = size. Chaussures = shoes. Boutique = store. Jusqu'au = up to. Vente en ligne = online sales. There is also a page for stores carrying large size and a map, but all the listed physical shops are near Paris. A few are missing, such as Alibaba, where you should search for size "US16" and "US17" (chinese have a special US scale, use their tables with foot length / US / CN sizes). With Alibaba there is no fast delivery (6 weeks) and though delivery is free of charge, returns are and they are worth the shoes, so I usually give up on returns with Alibaba. Nordstrom agrees to deliver in Europe and has the widest collection. Only problem is american stores miss the tight network of parcel delivery places (Mondial Relay, etc.) where you can easily return them, and furthermost, pick you parcel when you can. They insist on using transport services that ring at your door for a signature when you are at work, and then have you drive 25 km to get your things at their hub. Next, Newlook and Clarks carry shoes up to EU43 wide fit.

at9 Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Assuming you paid by credit card and the transaction is within the EU (which is appears to be, even though the compnay itself is in China) the card company is jointly and severally liable, hence you can get a refund from them. Technically this is only valid for purchases over £100 but in practice the card companies will often pay up for smaller amounts. As will banks for debit cards: http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/shopping/section75-protect-your-purchases If you paid by Paypal their dispute procedure should cover you. If you paid by bank transfer or Western Union then tough. The alarm bells should have rung very loudly. They were ringing pretty loudly anyway, the place is obviously a fraud as I noted in an earlier post.
