Apparently "Complete Disregard for Detail" is a must to work at my Local "Spring"

I hope that they are not bad quality! I love the boots DH got me from there for Christmas and I would hate for them to fall apart after only a couple wears (I'll have to make sure I hang on to that receipt). I am in the same boat as a lot of you with the "Drag Queen" feet. My boots from there are a 10 (a little too big, but they don't carry 9 1/2 in this boot). i am 5'9 and my normal shoe size is a 9.

We can start a Queen Size Shoe Club Yippie!!!
Gee I already get harassed for being tall now I have HUGE feet lol

Oh my goodness I never thought there would be so many women in size 10 and a half!! Didn't mean to offend anyone, but being a size 7.5 myself those looked huge to me. They actually fit my husband! As for cheking the box the third time, I did. The first time I didn't. My husband bought the boots and didnt check, and when I went to get the new ones on Boxing Day I guess I assumed that being there for a screw up they would be a little more careful..... I guess they weren't. I will always check In the future. Also a little cheezed that their sign said "all boots 30% off" and the ones I bought are literally the only boots in the store not included. Even on their website every pair but mine are on sale, even the exact same boot in grey. I'm rotted by the whole experience.

Well, what a pile of unfortunate incidents! How very frustrating!

I've never shopped there, so I can't comment on your thoughts about that specific company.

Just a note - I've never bought shoes or boots without having tried the ones I'm buying, and knowing those are in the box I'm purchasing - so am I in the minority here? It's not because I ever had a problem with getting the wrong ones, it's just the way it's always been.

I'm thinking on your third experience there, you might have thought to check the boots in the box before buying them...

lol!! Jenny I thought that Drag Queen sized thing might rub the wrong way, but I know what you meant, they were huge for you! My DD is a size 11 so she can be President of the Big Foot Club. lol

[wolfwoman]

guess I'm the odd one out. I'm 5' 10 and only wear an 8-8.5

[jjwbuster]

I had similar experience at Spring. Never will shop there again.

Gee, and I can't be the only one who wears "Drag Queen Size", either, lol!

Hoping today is a better day for you!

Big feet big heart Natalka,

[Pinkypie]

I'm 5"7.5 and wear a size 10-11 shoe!! My foot grew a size with each baby I had..... I guess I'm never gonna fall over with these monsters lol

[Mamaelmo]

Guess I'm the odd one out with shoe size here I'm 5'2 and can wear a kids size 4 shoe or a ladies 6

[Darth Penguin]

I'm 5 ft 2 as well and a size 9 1/2-10 but big feet run on the ladies side of my father's family..Penguinette 1(14) has size 9s as well..

[Hollywood1818]

wow i am the odd one out i am only 5.4 but i barely fit into a size 5 and can wear kids shoes 2.5-3.

[Zonny]

Another drag queen here! I'm 5'11, have size 11 feet. Finding shoes on sale would be nice, finding shoes at ALL would be wonderful. Shocking how I always wear sneakers!

[momof3heathens]

My dd16 has a size 10 foot as well which she actually likes because none of her friends can borrow her shoes and ruin them, lol.

I try to avoid stores with onerous return policies. My husband isn't as brave as yours to buy me shoes as a surprise; shoes are something I need to try on because I have wide feet.

I know hindsight is 20/20, Jenny...but if your time is important, then the extra two minutes to check the box before you buy (and leave the store) will save you a lot of aggravation later...
