big feet and the lefty

[Borrissey]

Greetings:

I wear size 13 shoes and I am a lefty....does anyway have an idea of where I could buy those snazzy adidas fencing shoes? I will be going to my first Summer Nationals event next week. Will a vendor offer my shoe size?

Cheers.

hmmm... I'm not entirely sure how high the Adida's shoes run. On the other hand, I know a few other size 13 male fencers, so you'd think there ought to be some market. Maybe if the vendor doesn't carry the size you need at the venue, you could put in an order with them and they could ship them too you. Its not as good as having them there, but at least you might have an idea.

Best of luck!

They should have them. I tried on a pair last year (ended up with size 12 instead)

I have a size 14US in the adistar and have looked at the Asyms so I know they are available. I would check with the Fencing Post or Blue Guantlet. YOu can also sometimes find some really good fencing shoe deals on e-bay.
