It seems like almost every time I buy new footwear, I need a halfsize bigger. Are our feet still growing ?

Is it just me, or are shoe sizes shrinking ?

I wear size 7 and I don't have any problem with it.

  That's great, you're one of the lucky ones I guess. It seems over the last 5 years or so that whenever I've been in need of new footwear the affordable shoes have been manufactured in various different countries, and the sizes never match up. : (

  Shoe sizes differ in different countries. I live in England, so my size 7 is a British size 7. A size 7 in another country may be a different size. British size 7 is size 41 in Europe, size 8 in Australia and size 9.5 in the USA. Where do you live, Ice man?

1-8-2017 It depends on where you buy them. I used to wear size 9, and about 20 years ago I decided to buy size 9 1/2. But if I go to one of those "shoes for less" places they don't have a shoe big enough no matter what number they put on it.

  I know what you mean and I think a lot of those ones are made in China now.
