Size 13 US 47 EU Shoes?

Post by Kraken9216 »

Sorry to bother you all with such a basic question. But does anyone know where to buy size 13 US or 47 EU mens shoes? I have only managed to find one shop that sells the cheap plastic sandles in my size for $1. They have fallen apart in a week Even the brand name stores at AEON laugh when I ask for my size. Does anyone know where to get shoes and clothes in general more fitting for Western sized men? And no the export shops don't carry my size in shoes or clothing either.

Thanks

Funny, they're all made here but do you think you can buy anything off the shelf over a 9?
Dont be silly!
Cambodians know that no one has feet that big. Why stock them?

Next to Toul Slueng there are a couple of shoe makers. Cost me $35 for a nice pair of brown leather shoes.

I dont know whether you are here long term or short term. Next time you come, you could bring clothes and shoes from home.

You can get clothes and shoes made.

Many people make clothes, and would be happy to make clothes for you. Many dont speak English. You should probably tell them which material you want to use. Agree on a price before they start.

Here is a link on making shoes.

I buy my shoes online as big shoes are almost impossible to find. And nobody makes running shoes to order, even though 90% of the running shoes appear to be made in SE Asia.

Some of the locally made fashion shoes are hilarious winkle picker and motor boat models worthy of the zoot suit era. I imagine you could get any style made that you wish if price is no issue.

Get a PO Box at the main post office and order on Amazon and then pray.

Amazon sends with DHL to my door what are you praying about? A package takes around 3 days.

Amazon does NOT send a lot of items to Cambodia directly due to warranty/liability issues. I have a PO Box in the USA that forwards all the stuff to me.
