My dear daughter Abbi has a boyfriend and his name is Hayden. He is a nice kid with BIG feet. Actually at 15 he is something like 6’4 or 6’5 so he is big every where but this is about his feet or more specifically his shoes. This is Caelun with Hayden’s boots.
Swirl was coming and Hayden needed a pair of dress shoes- size 17. Yes you read correctly 17. Now where exactly does one go to find size 17 dress shoes? I can relate to his predicament because I have a similar problem in the opposite direction. I wear a size 4E. Having felt the frustration of not being able to buy shoes I decided we were going to find these shoes. Having made this my mission Abbi and I drug the poor boy – who was very tolerant I might add- to 5 different stores before we hit the jack pot. The final solution – JC Pennies. Yep. Go to their shoe department, have them measure your feet- we found out Hayden rather than having the size 17 he thought he had actually has a 16 wide. He actually got to pick out a pair from a variety of styles- again I can relate to the lack of opportunity to do this-, and ordered them. They arrived on our doorstep 4 days later with free shipping- woot! When they arrived we all had to check them out but the 3 year old found them especially interesting. Well Caelun – Hayden has definitely given you some big shoes to fill.
They have landed!
Abbi says- “lets try them on!”
This is what size 16 wide shoes look like on a 3 year old.
Oh wait we have to get them both going the same direction.
This is my -as Clint would say- “freakishly small” size 4 winter boot next to Hayden’s shoe. You can understand why I can commiserate.
Maybe in the dinning room –where there is more space to maneuver-he can walk better in them
Not to bad.
A little soft shoe any one?
