Well once again I am overwhelmed by Inge's monumental effort. I'm going to have to take some serious time going through all those links. I have tried some of those brands already with no luck, but certainly not all. I will give a detailed report when I'm done! Laura, LC is my favorite brand when it comes to boots. I didn't find any shoes that looked comfy to me though, unfortunately. Tanya, you and Ana will be shoe twins I could never see myself wearing those comfortably (though they are very pretty). I guess I'll see what Angie has to say after our little consultation first, and then figure out a course of action. I feel like my feet have so many issues that I won't be disappointed or surprised if we don't have a resolution right at that very moment. marianne on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44551 Sat, 17 Jan 2009 04:12:01 +0000 marianne 44551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ For me, Josef Seibel is extremely comfortable, but I agree with Shana, what I see at Nordstrom and other US stores is very old-ladyish. I am (pleasantly) surprised to hear they make more stylish shoes. Unfortunately I haven't been abroad in a few years and no trips are happening in the near future, but I'll keep it in mind. I like Clarks Indigo line, they have some cute designs and they are comfortable. Tanya on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44503 Sat, 17 Jan 2009 00:49:56 +0000 Tanya 44503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Maya, those Ecco shoes are gorgeous, I am eying them myself, since I need to replace my 4-year old similar pair. Maybe we can be shoe twins Ana on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44466 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 23:42:19 +0000 Ana 44466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh neat, thanks for the links and brand recommendations, everyone (even though they're not for me, specifically). I'm trying to find cute comfy shoes as well. I have never heard of Joseph Seibel, but I will look for that brand next time I'm at Nordies. I really like these Ecco shoes in whiskey: <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2994416/0~2376788~6002242~6007715~6008488?mediumthumbnail=Y&origin=category&searchtype=&pbo=6008488&P=6" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....8&P=6</a> Inge on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44419 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 20:32:12 +0000 Inge 44419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ ...continued I tried to look for comfort brands that still make cute shoes.

I can imagine your client being over the moon with joy!! Maya: I think it's entirely possible that Angie takes one look at your feet in NY and will be able to point you in the right shoe direction right there and then. She's good!!-) Inge on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44416 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 20:06:58 +0000 Inge 44416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You're giving me way too much credit here Maya;-) Can't wait to see the Campers you found! As predicted, not many Euro shoe stores can be found online. There are a number of UK ones, but I'm not at all sure, you'd be able to find the shoes you're after there. Anyway, some examples FYI: <a href="http://www.faith.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">http://www.faith.co.uk/</a> <a href="http://www.hennyjames.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hennyjames.co.uk/</a> <a href="http://www.aldoshoes.com/uk" rel="nofollow">http://www.aldoshoes.com/uk</a> <a href="http://www.dune.co.uk/catalogue/default.asp?r=43" rel="nofollow">http://www.dune.co.uk/catalogue/default.asp?r=43</a> <a href="http://www.frenchsole.com/index.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.frenchsole.com/index.php</a> (loads of ballet flats here, I hadn't heard of the brand, so I can't say how comfortable they are) And then of course you have the websites of the large department stores like Dorothy Perkins, Next, Marks & Spencer: <a href="http://www.next.co.uk/shopping/women/shoes/1?LID=01_02_02_01_08" rel="nofollow">http://www.next.co.uk/shopping.....2_02_01_08</a> <a href="http://www.dorothyperkins.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/TopCategoriesDisplay?storeId=12552&catalogId=20552" rel="nofollow">http://www.dorothyperkins.com/.....ogId=20552</a> <a href="http://www.marksandspencer.com/Shoes-Boots-Womenswear/b/43126030/279-5620316-2775161catalogId=20552&storeId=12552&categoryId=51581&langId=-1&top=Y" rel="nofollow">http://www.marksandspencer.com.....#038;top=Y</a> Esprit Belgium has a limited amount of shoes available: <a href="http://www.esprit.be/index_bn.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.esprit.be/index_bn.htm</a> (click on 'Schoenen') Angie and Laura are right I think, maybe it would be best to concentrate on the Euro brands available in US stores? I'll post some more shoes that I found (+ websites that might be interesting) below. Ariadne on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44380 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 18:14:44 +0000 Ariadne 44380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hmm, this is useful. I'm filing away the brands Joseph Siebel and La Canadienne. I see Joseph shoes on clearance fairly regularly. I have yet to encounter La Canadienne in shoe stores here, though. How weird is that? Angie on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44361 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 16:00:06 +0000 Angie 44361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ My dear, Maya. I am not avoiding your quezzie. I'm saving my suggestions for when I see those cute little feet. I feel that my tools will be sharper that way. Inge, you took the words out of my mouth. Most Euro stores don’t even have websites. As for Josef Seibel and La Canadienne, Shana and Laura – my client bought two pairs of each of those at Nordies yesterday – closed shoes though, not open. It set her back $650 (but it was 4 pairs of shoes and she has super difficult feet). She would have spent double the amount out of sheer utter desperation. She wore the one pair last night and I received email this morning on how elated she was with her comfy fab looking shoes. She *cried* with happiness. It’s interesting that those were the brands that the both of you mentioned this morning. Do not give up hope Maya. We will sort you out. Laura on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44342 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 13:49:40 +0000 Laura 44342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ La Canadienne has a lot of cute spring/summer offerings that are available here, as does Ecco (and you liked their boots, right?). Both run in Euro size. Endless.com in particular has a bunch of La Canadienne sandals etc. right now that are on sale. I find that La Canadienne runs a tiny bit small, if that helps. Maya on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44340 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 13:29:14 +0000 Maya 44340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Inge I have full faith in you. If you can't find anything then it simply doesn't exist. I found some cute camper shoes on 6pm.com. I'll ask for input when I'm not on my iPhone. Nicole on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44334 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 12:32:19 +0000 Nicole 44334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Maya, Check this out: <a href="http://www.footsmart.com/Comfort-Shoes-Euro-Comfort-Shoes.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.footsmart.com/Comfo.....Shoes.aspx</a> Then check out their sheos--they have some nice looking ones! Inge on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44324 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 10:24:18 +0000 Inge 44324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'll comment on this more elaborately tonight (first I need to get two translations out of the door), but I think Camper certainly is worth another try, Maya. And they ship to the US (in case you can't find the styles you like in NY). The trouble with many European (shoe) stores is, that they still don't have a website/an online shop to order from. I find that quite annoying, because it would make things so much easier + it would be nice just to be able to browse their collections online. I believe I have a few UK shoe stores bookmarked, and I'll have a look around for some more ideas. Stay tuned;-) shana on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44317 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 04:56:51 +0000 shana 44317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I've had much better luck with shoes in Germany than American shoes in terms of comfort (8-12 hour kind). Unfortunately, they never seem to have the same variety here that they do there. For example, I bought I pair of Joseph Seibel shoes in Germany that I could literally walk in for 24 hours a day if I needed to do. I have found the same brand here at Nordstroms and even at DSW, but only the orthopedic looking ones - not the cuter styles. Anyway, the prices are expensive there too (especially with an unfavorable dollar). Maya on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44303 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 03:16:53 +0000 Maya 44303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ For a sweet pair of comfy summer shoes, I'm willing to be quite extravagant. I skimp on boots because they're easy to find and I already have plenty of comfy pairs. But I don't own a single pair of true 8 hour summer shoes. I'd put myself on a season-long shopping ban for just one pair of great summer shoes. Angie on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44302 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 03:08:46 +0000 Angie 44302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I actually don’t know of any Euro shoe shops that ship, other than Duo boots. Perhaps Inge can enlighten us? You’ll find plenty of Euro shoe brands in department stores, though. Unfortunately, I don’t think you’ll like their prices Maya on "Euro shoe stores" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/euro-shoe-stores#post-44298 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 02:56:33 +0000 Maya 44298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Angie, I read in the other discussion that you said European shoes tend to be more comfortable than American shoes. Do you know of any Euro shops that ship to the US? I guess since Americans generally do not do as much walking as people do in Europe, it makes sense. Between your comments and Inge's recommendations, I might have to give Camper another try for summer footwear.
