dstarsboy Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 My general rule of thumb is not to buy a girl any clothing items without her present. Guys are biologically not meant to do it and we lack any skills involved in this process. Link to comment
Am4wag Posted March 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 I don't know WHY this thread is going to women's shoes,or T-shirts.The question regards MEN"S shoes,a gift for family members.It's really been difficult converting these sizes,as the internet is telling me 3 different size conversions.

LeeFisher3 Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 I give up..........................................196473[/snapback]General rule of thumb (or toe) American men's shoe sizes are measured in inches and in China they are measured in centimeters. You can use a ruler to measure your foot length heal to toe while standing and multiply from there, or maybe the rule has both measures. Size 10 = 25.4cm so 26 would be correct. The assumption is every shoe manufacturer uses the standards to measure their shoes. The only positive method is to try them on. Link to comment

Of course some seem to have turned to chetoos and sheep and such. Link to comment

SheLikesMe.......Hahahahaha.No Cheetos or sheep. Link to comment
Am4wag Posted March 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 Am4wag, EXACTLY a year and a day ago (from your initial post- this thread) someone asked this same question- not any clear cut answer here either.
