If you have a regular shoe size you do not understand what it’s like to walk into a shop and ask, “what do you have in size X?” and not see anything you like or would choose. It is quite disappointing, and even humiliating, when you get answers like “we do not have such big sizes” or “the men’s department is there”.

I had to reconcile myself with the fact that during my teenage years, and many years after that, I couldn’t have what I wanted, but had to take what I could.

So after many years of discrimination by people with larger feet, finally me and my school mate decided to stop this injustice. We opened a shop where we sell ONLY large size shoes.

So now there is a shop were women can feel like women and buy high heel shoes even if their size is 45! Of course there are not only heels – we offer women’s shoes for different tastes from size 40 to size 47. Plus, we did not forget about the men (but the offer is much smaller than for women): men shoes range from size 46 to size 53.
