So, I've been wanting some rocking horse shoes for a looooonnnnngggg time and just recently found 69th department [http://xx69thxx.exblog.jp/] and they sell them in my size [us 11 womens]

So in order to place an order I have to get 10 people together who want to order a size 11. I'm just wondering if anyone is interested. They are USD 70 dollars per pair.

Please let me know if you're interested. ^_^

We just did a group order with [livejournal.com profile] aimeekitty. I'm pretty sure she has plenty extras to sell, so try contacting her first for a pair ^_^

[livejournal.com profile] electroncat recently recieved a pair from the order [livejournal.com profile] aimeekitty did, and I believe she told me that the size 11's were in fact more like size 12s... You may want to check on the actual centimeter size with some other users who have also bought these just to make sure =)

I wear an 11. Flatly an 11, not a 12, not a 10.5. These shoes are *way* too big on me. The bottom says they're size 44, and I was under the impression that size 43 was an 11, not 44.... But they vaguely fit if I stuff paper towels down in the toes, but they still slip off my feet. ~__~

Oh no! ;_;

When did you get yours? I was wondering when they'd arrive...

I got mine... two weeks ago? I had them shipped directly to me because I wanted them in time for Animazement, and of course, they arrived right after I left for the con. XD

But really, it didn't matter anyway... I would have been miserable all weekend if I had worn them... they're really that big. T_T

I normally have issues with Demonia and Hot Topic 11's being too short, but I wear a true size 11. I don't have wide or narrow feet or anything, and most size 11's fit me perfectly from normal shoe companies. The only time size 11's don't fit is if the arch is in the wrong place or the straps hit my toe just the wrong way... you know that kind of thing... but these shoes are just *way* too big... and the straps on my pair are placed so far forward that they really don't help keep them on my feet at all... infact, I rather think it makes the shoes more dangerous... I worry that if my foot slips out that I will get tripped up in the laces and hurt my ankle...

Maybe if everyone else has this issue we can get them replaced with the correct size?

It sounds like we have the exact same size feet... now I'm worried :(

It also sounds like someone screwed up... if it's the manufacturer then we should demand they fix it. But if it was Aimee (with wrong measurements, although I think she had all the right ones if I remember right)... well then we're all screwed :/

Such a sticky situation, but I didn't pay 100-something bucks to have shoes that won't fit me! I guess I'll see when my order arrives :(

Oh damn. I'm a 10wide. Maybe they're narrow enough that they work, though? *prays to loli gods*

I don't know... they're just sooooo long. I mean I really can't keep my feet in them very well even with the tissue in the toes. @_@

Just wanted to know, how do you order from 69th Department anyway? Do you just post and ask? I have no idea ^^;; I want Rocking Horse shoes too.

I would! but I wear a size 10.5-11 so if these are closer to size 12 they'd be too big for me.

Ew, if these are gonna be too big for a 10-10.5, I might have an extra pair to sell... I'm still waiting on mine from the first group order. ::TEAR::
