Size 2 anyone?

7 replies

cheesecakelover · 24/06/2006 00:54

I wonder if anyone can help. I am a size 2 shoe. The trouble is, I am 23 and do not want to get my shoes out of the kiddies section of the shoe shops and neither do I want shoes for the older woman. I have found one pair on the barratts tall and small website, but thats about it. I found the 'would be' perfect website the other day, but at the moment they are not up and running and don't seem to have any idea when they will be. All other websites are quite expensive. I live in suffolk, so miles from anywhere that would stock anything like this. Please help, am getting desperate now!!!!!

Sorry but finding an adult size 35 (is this your size?) is expensive! Duo have started doing shoes this year, but they are not cheap and have only a limited range of styles (www.duoboots.com). Jones Bootmakers have some styles in a size 35 as well, and have an online shop.

If you're prepared to travel, in London, Selfridges do stock a size 35 in some brands (Carvella go this small, the more upmarket brands may also go down to a size 35), Due Passi is on the Kings Rd and also near Bond St, I've got some shoes from there. I think Blue Velvet (also on Kings Rd) do small ballet shoes. Bally used to do a size 35, but not sure if that's true now (and also quite expensive). Camper goes down to a size 35, but you're looking at £85 for a pair of leather trainers.

For designer shoes www.yoox.com can come up trumps some times (I got a great pair of boots from there last winter). If you search on small shoes on Google other specific sites do come up that go smaller than a size 35, but I find their styles rather elderly - Boden kids probably better!

Thanks ever so, will look in to these. Next do a size 35, but only some of the shoes fit, some of them are too big, I wonder why this is? I think I must be a 34, not really too sure about European sizes.
Anyway, must fly, have some shoes to shop for....

I'm a size 2 too!!
I have bought quite a few pairs of shoes especially sandals abroad.
I just tend to grin and bear it in the kids. Ravel are quite good and I have some great stappy party high heels from tescos, M and S and Debenhams

Cheesecakelover, was in the new website that will shortly be up and running.

I am a size 2 and have real problems too. don't want to pay a fortune as I just can't afford it and dont want kids shoes. Understand.

Ah yes, I hadn't thought of Debenhams kiddies dept. They do quite trendy stuff for kids. It's just such a drag having such small feet. I used to brag about not having to pay vat on my shoes, would now be happy to pay double the vat just to have a wide selection!!

Sorry meant to ask what was the new website called. I ended up selling a lot of my shoes on ebay as I found that in the past all the shoes I purchased from Saxonne many years ago didn't fit after baby born as my feet seemed to go up in a half size. I am about a 34.5 which is a real pain. Would be interested to know of any other sites online that stock shoes to fit small feet ?

Small measures is the website so you could try this link. Another one is Barratts Tall and Small which are quite reasonably priced when you take into account delivery charges as well. This should hopefully take you to it.
Sorry it took so long to reply, those links can be quite difficult to master!!
