Are any of you ladies having problems finding shoes in your size? I just went to a giant mall in Parramatta and could not find shoes in my size! .. I'm size 6 1/2-7, which is on the small end of average in the USA... but here I can't find anything smaller than an 8!


any shoe shop suggestions that cater to smaller feet?

My feet are the same size as yours, but can't say I've had any trouble finding shoes in my size (style, however, is another matter!).
I usually shop at K-Mart, Target, & Big W. Have you tried any of those places?
Do they still have Payless Shoes down there?

checked Kmart.. no luck.

There is a payless, but if it's anything like the states, I refuse to go there. They kill my feet.

When you are shopping for shoes, depending on the brand, are you looking at the US sizes? Many brands here use AU/UK sizes, which then need to be converted into US size. Check out this link for clarification if needed...

I haven't had any problem finding my size here in Sydney and I am a 7US. I do get confused though sometimes with what size I am at the store :P
Be conscious of the present moment.

I find plenty here in Perth that are 6&1/2 and 7, but it's VERY hard to find wide widths, unless I go into the CBD. :(

I have the same size feet as yours and have never had a problem finding shoes!! I buy them all the time.... I generally shop in the CBD or Chatswood. Most of the shoes I have bought here are "american sized 6-1/2's", however there have been a few times where I have found the sizing to be european and in those I generally take a 36 or 37.
