My feet are size 8 and a half, and no-one seems to do half sizes any more, even though they did for about the first 30 years of my life. So now I have a choice between slightly too big or slightly too small. But again, there's no consistency. I can get size 9s that are too small, and size 8s that are too big!
They should just do away with the sizing system altogether and just let you try every damn boot in the shop until you find one that fits.
Mind you, at the weekend I managed to get myself a nice comfy pair of squashy Vans trainer thingies (size 10!) that fit and are huuuuuge and look like oversized kiddies booteees on me! :D
