Indigo1991 1,612 Posted June 5, 2013 Just home from shopping trip for sandals. Walked into shop, picked a style, tried the left foot on and was very happy with the look. Asked the assistant if I could try on a pair... She went off to get the other shoe and came back very apologetically saying "we only have wide fitting left, sorry, but I can order you a regular fit" ..... She has no idea why I left smiling despite not getting my shoes. Having had "wide" feet for 30 years, this is the first time anyone has looked at me and judged that I must have "normal" feet... Whoo hoo!!!!!! 7 Jacqueline Marie, DayByDay, ladee24 and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
