They work great for taking up that extra space in my size 6 shoes. I still have to stuff the toes, but I'm not getting blisters any more. In the future, I think I will continue my new habit of buying shoes in 5 1/2s though, because they fit my little feet so much better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-that-grow#post-408 Sat, 26 Jan 2008 19:16:47 +0000 Sarah 408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the tip Maya. I certainly don't buy cheep shoes to accomidate growing feet. My feet stopped growing 10 years ago. I buy cheep shoes because I seem to wear out my "everyday" shoes in a year or less regardless of what I paid for them. I haven't had any problems with my feet as a result of cheep shoes, but then, some of them are better quality shoes that I just got on sale. I may try the heel grips, since my feet are a bit wider in front than in back as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-that-grow#post-340 Thu, 24 Jan 2008 08:00:47 +0000 mayapple 340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah, I used to wear Payless all throughout my youth and I paid hardcore for it with some lovely bunions on both my feet. I was just a kid and my feet were still growing, so it might not affect you at all, but I just thought I'd throw that out there. </p> <p>Now my feet are really wide at the front and narrow in the back, so I usually end up having to buy a size up to accommodate my forefoot, and then I stick in a heel grip to keep my shoes from slipping off. Maybe you could try that. Besides just keeping your shoes on, they also cushion your ankles so you don't get chaffed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-that-grow#post-192 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 01:44:06 +0000 Sarah 192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the link Angie. That's fantastic! I've never seen that website before, but I love their selection of shoes, and their prices are great. Guess I'll have to try insoles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-that-grow#post-180 Sun, 20 Jan 2008 18:04:26 +0000 Angie 180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Leather can over stretch Sarah, but I haven't encountered the shoe growth you are speaking of. Would adding an insole to your shoe help after they're a little too big? Try this website for your petite peds. </p> <p><a href="http://www.cinderellaofboston.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.cinderellaofboston.com/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-that-grow#post-179 Sun, 20 Jan 2008 15:44:36 +0000 Sarah 179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We've talked about jeans that grow when you wear them, but does anybody else have trouble with their shoes growing? My feet are tiny, as they stopped growing when I was 12. I wore size 6s for years, but recently I've noticed that once I've worn my shoes a few times they are too big and rub up and down on my ankles. The only good solution I've found is to buy my shoes a little tight, so now I buy mostly 5½s and once they are "broken in" they fit my feet fine. Is this just a problem with cheep shoes? I do most of my shoe shopping at Payless because I am hard on shoes and wear them out in a year regardless of price. I can wear out a pair of $20 shoes just as fast as $100 shoes. So I guess what I want to know is 1) am I alone in this? And 2) does anyone know of a place with a large variety of shoes in small sizes 4-5½)? </p>
