I really hate shopping for clothes and shoes. Yesterday I had to get a pair of shoes that would be comfortable and easy to slip on and off. I found a cheap pair that work BUT....It said Women's size 9 to 10. Mens size 7 to 8. I think that should be the other way around. I wear a 9+1/2. I wish I wore a 7&1/2. What's up with that??

Mens sizes start out much larger than womens- so even though the size number might be smaller- the inches will be bigger.

Hey look at the brite side it could be worse....when size labels went bi-lingual it was bad enough to be extra large but somehow mucho grande seemed much worse....

We bought Levi a pair of shoes that had the Spanish equivalents in them. Poor little guy's shoe size is 7 normally, but it says 15 Inside..hehe...
