Shoes really piss me off. I can wear wear anything from a size 11 to a 14 depending on the year, month, day, and hour of the day. I tried to buy a pair of slippers last winter. I tried on a pair clearly labeled ‘Size 14’ at the insistence of my Wife. I couldn’t get them even half ways on my foot…

The explanation I have always received in the store for this, is that some shoes have stretchier material than others and it’s up to the manufacturer whether they consider the shoe size to be the material unstretched or stretched. Seems like a daft allowance but there you go.
What’s the point in a non-standardized standard?
