  Shoe sizes change throughout life. At 18 i was a 4E width, at 25ish 4E was too narrow and a 6E fits better.

  Sizes also vary between brands/shoes.

    they literally just said they’ve been the same size since grade school. this is what you do: -go into shoe store. -grab pair of shoes in same size you currently wear. -too big? grab a size down. too small? go up. -stand in line and purchase shoes -leave store with dignity in tact from small feet shame

    ***BONUS POINTS if an employee tries to help you and you tell them “I’m okay, i can handle it.”
