I have the opposite problem. I'm a size 6 and whenever I arrive at "The Biggest Shoe Sale of the Year!!!" nothing's left in my size. It's like they make one pair for the smallest and largest sizes and the rest for all those lucky 7s,8s,and 9s.

I'm a US size 9 and my size sells out pretty quickly too. But yeah, 6-9 are pretty common women's shoe sizes.

Right now I'm realizing that European shoe sizes are totally different and I can't tell if I'm a 40 or 39 and that's making things difficult for me. Also, European shoes tend to be narrower than American shoes which sucks.

I think you should definitely go for a size 40 if you're a US size 9, especially since shoes here can indeed be narrow.

Well, I thought that too, so I got these Swedish clog sandals in a size 40 and they feel a bit too big. Oh well.

AFAIK, northern European countries (Sweden, Norway and Germany at least) tend to actually size bigger for shoes and clothes than, say, France (since that's where I'm from).

People on average are taller over there, especially women, and also I think they're more inclusive, so they do tend to carry slightly bigger sizes.

One of my friends with long feet usually has to order on "big size" specialized stores in France, but in Germany she finds stuff in regular shoe shops as well.

I hear you - I'm a 5/6 (depends on type of shoe) and not only can I never find shoes on sale, but a lot of the time I can't find shoes at all because "all our styles start at size 6!"

Yeah. Lots of fun to be had there.

I wear shoes in the range from 5 all the way up to 6 1/2 depending on the fit of the shoe since some run small. But usually I end up in size 5 or 5 1/2, I feel your pain. A lot of shoe companies don't make shoes smaller than 6 or 6 1/2 either. It's a serious pain unless I feel like buying childrens shoes which usually aren't made to last as long.
