    Anyone Else Fit Into Children's Shoes - Which Brands Are Funky?

    OK, so I'm a size 36 (sometimes a bit less) and it's hideous trying to find boots that fit. I've tried on heaps, bought online, sent back. Some styles only start at 37. The only ones so far that I've found that fit me are a Midas pair which are very exxie.

    So yesterday, I was doing my usual and trying stuff on and as usual their smallest size was a bit too big so I jokingly said, "maybe I should just try some children's boots."

    They actually had them in my size. And they fitted. Didn't like the style that much but got me thinking. Maybe I should buy a black children's boot and get the exxie red Midas ones that I love. The cost will balance each other out (the children's ones are $89) and I'd be spending the same on two pairs of boots that I normally would.

    So .... for anyone else who can fit into children's shoes, what brands should I look for ie. something funky but not too kiddie looking?

    I have a friend that loves Camper shoes an was thrilled to find out she can fit into the children's sizes (50% cheaper) although I think even then they're still pretty exxie

    LOL, not sure on brands but I buy kids shoes sometimes, and also clothes, shame, lol. But it's way cheaper!

    I sometimes have no choice but to buy kids shoes (in places like Big W etc who for whatever reason choose not to stock a size 5)! Don't know about brands though, I normally only buy ballet slipper type shoes in kids sizes. If you have a Famous Footwear near you they stock small adult sizes and have awesome shoes/boots

    Is it like the UK here then where there is no tax on childrens shoes? or are they just cheaper.

    They're just generally cheaper
