Sorry for your predicament. I have big feet myself, size 8 and if I wear heels higher than 5" I'm a size 9. With regards to any shoes shops with size 11 shoes.... I don't know any high street shops, but you'll find them easily in a fetish shop. :wink:

I know you don't want to shop on line but you should check out this website. i have ordered various items through them and the prices are good and the quality is great. And the shoe prices are very reasonable.

I don't know on any mainline high street shops that go to an 11. Evans top out at about a 9.

If you realy don't want to go on line, worried about explaining the post at home perhaps ? Then all I can suggest is visit Camden market in London or one of the monthly fetish fairs. London Fetish Fair or London Alternative Market will probably have shoes but check the web sites.

I brought shoes from Extreme Footware at the Skin Two Expo and know they were at Erotica last month but you'll have to wait a whole year for those shows to come around again.

There used to be a few places in Brighton but I've not been there for a while so can't give you any names.

How well do you know the post room at work ? They'll often accept parcels if you explain that you thought a signature was required and no one was going to be home.

If you do end up shopping on line try searching on The Kinky Boot Factory.

That's the place they made the film about.

The heels have a steel liner that is extended all the way down to the sole so they are very strong to take a man's weight. I checked a pair with a metal detector and they do.

Divine is the company that is the remains of the Kinky Boot Factory run by Steve Pateman. Some of the shoes still have the steel shank that they made a thing of in the film although this also exists in some regular high heels. The shoes are no longer made in Northampton but are imported. Also they used to be made on male lasts for a better fit and I believe now they've reverted to just the female shaped lasts.

I still have some original Kinky Boot Factory shoes from when the BBC first aired their documentry about the company. They are still my favorites.

I have a pair but they are four and a half inch heels and are hell to walk in. They remain unused in the bottom of the wardrobe.

Look great though.
