Bought shoes to small

Have you ever bought shoes to small because you just loved them and had to have them? I have - I bought a pair which were leather and were a bit small. I decided that because they were leather they would stretch and I would fit into them. Well they are stretching and I am so happy. In addition, they were on sale which makes them even more tantalizing. So I got 2 good things a sale and a pair of shoes that I fit into just by wearing them more often.

No I have not. I have a very bad back and wear othotics. I know the importance of having good shoes to help the health of your body. i must also always look for shoes that the insole comes out. I will never wear thongs anymore as they are very bad for your back. I have done that with clothing though. I think I'll just loose a bit of weight...but it never quite turns out like that.

Yeah I have done that with clothing as well but as far as shoes, I would not do that because too small shoes causes corns.

No, I have never done that. If a shoe isn't comfortable when I try it on then I don't risk buying it. I know that sometimes they will stretch out but in the meantime the process seems as if it would be kind of painful. I'm on my feet a lot and so I don't think I'd do that.

No, I never did that. I like to look at the shoes on clearance because I go for the new arrival,when I see the shoes that I like but they don't have my size, I won't look it at all, I think it is just toturing youself if you wear shoes that doens't fit.

I did, when I was a fashion-conscious teenager :). These days I'm too preoccupied with comfort to do that. I don't even wear high heels anymore because of that.

I tried that too. I was once on a shoe shop that every thing is on sale I bought maybe 4 pairs of shoes. When I arrived home, I started to fit them one by one. All are perfect except for one. I was so frustrated because I can never return the shoes because its on sale and the last piece on that size. so I end up giving the pair of shoes to my friend.
