Today I just want to share The Standard Conversion Shoe Size. As in Malaysia, the size typically is being standardize by Europe, UK or US sizes. And most of the shoes are being sold in the size of Asian (smaller than west size). Gahhhhh... it's very hard though for 'ang mo' = 'orang putih' = west people to get their size in Malaysia unless they go for Branded Shoes such as Clarks, Hush Puppies, Gucci, Jimmy Choo etc etc.. It wouldn't be a problem for them~
BUT this is not the main story okay~ I just want to share how people tends to confuse what size are theirs. Sometimes people said that they're 7 and sometimes 41. So it's confusing right? And what's make complicated is when the shop sold both UK and US shoe size. I mean like whatttt??? Seriously??? You make myself double the confuse. Seriously~ (*^*)~
So for the shops outside there please do show what standard you use and show the size conversion~ It helps the customers a lot and can make your sales increase. ;) [TIPS 1]
In addition, for the online shop that sold shoes, please state the size of your shoes clearly for men or women and what standard are you using. Because when the people bought from you, they might get the wrong size as they think it's their size. [TIPS 2]
True Story Bro!
This site quite good as it does tell about foot problems and functions. Do check it out. It is a good extra information for us as normal people who less care about our foot. Hahaha..
So again, back to the deal, not all Malaysian Shoe Shops have this Foot Measure Device:
You can go to this websites http://www.brannock.com/ for more details about this device.
1. Prevent back ache (yes you bet it is~)
2. Improve body posture
3. Prevent foot cramp and muscle cramp
4. Helping walking activities include running etc
5. The growth of nail is proper
6. Allowing the foot to 'breathe' perfectly
So don't just simply buy any size as the shoes have its own benefits if we used it perfectly fit. :) BTW why we must know all the sizes conversions and the existence of this device is that some people have no same size for both foot, wide and length of foot are definitely not the same, to look over perfect size and giving the perfect comfort for daily activities.
For me personally, my size is 41 Europe which is 9 1/2 US size. Mine seriously not BIG but merely LONG. Unfortunately in Malaysia again, it's hard for me to find my size. Bad shoes shopping forever~ (T^T)~ That's why I urged the shops in Malaysia to have this kind of method to help all the customers who's having the same problem as me or got another problems~ If you can help me, I seriously will stick with you. Heh heh heh~~
I hope you understand the reasons of buying a right shoes. :)
