    Just got back from Clarks and Charlotte is wearing her 1st pair of cruising shoes.

    She is a 3E (although left foot is 3 and half E - but as her feet so thin had to go down a size).
    The shoe on her right foot will slip off if you pull it hard enough but the fitter said that she would be willing to sell them to me as they aren't for proper walking. Apparently her feet may get even more narrow and we might have trouble finding shoes that fit in the future - GREAT!

    Anyway she has a nice new pink pair and they are lovely. We also got a piccie taken but as the woman cut a little bit off my head off the top I will get another photo when I go again!:roll:

    I'm so pleased that she finally has a pair of shoes that fit her properly, esp on the width. She takes after he dad - he has size 11 feet and they look like flippers cos they are so narrow!!

    Karais now on her second pair of shoes. Her first ones were cruisers. She was a 3e as well but she moved to a 3 1/2 e two week ago. She has very narrow feet like both me and her dad.

    Isaac is a H fitting and he also has a high instep and has to have orthotic inserts as he has hypermobility, to be honest I have never really liked clarks, my eldest son who is nearly 13 also has a h fitting and clarks would always go up 1/2 a size to accomodate his width, I cant see how if they do that the shoes will fit properly, when my 2nd was born she also has hypermobility someone recommended an independant shoe shop who sell alot of continental brands which seem to cater for everyone from the very narrow to the very wide, the shop we go to now the owner also works very closely with the orthotics department at the hospital, she spent ages fitting Isaacs shoes, she had him jumping on a dance mat and kicking a football round the shop to make sure they were the best shoes for him. I was so impressed, as soon as we took him in and she looked at his feet she could tell what his problems were.
