A Size 8 Is Not The Same Thing As A Size 7

I found several pairs of fabulous black boots at Foleys tonight. I showed them to the sales guy, and he went to the back to get them. He was gone a very long time. Finally, he returns. He says, "we were out of 7's, but here are some 8 and 8 1/2's. What? Hello? We are talking about shoes. A little big or a little small doesn't work. And a full size or a size and half? Those will never work. Just come back and say, "I'm sorry. We don't have any 7's. Would any other size work?" But don't bring out giant shoes as a substitute. Haven't you seen Cinderella? Don't you know that proper fit is very important?
