Styles vary, but most of my women's shoes are size 11.  Some are size 10 but they tend to be tight unless they are sandals.  As some others have noted it can make a difference whether the shoe is open toe or not.  In men's shoes I wear either a 9 or 9 1/2--depending on style.  Generally in women's sizes it is difficult to find half sizes in the larger sizes (over size 10).

Size 9.5W.

I can manage a 9.5 though.

I hope this info helps.

Okay so this is something I've been perplexed about the past few days, ordering tons of different shoes (right now I have 6 pairs of women shoes, but 4 of those are getting returned).  Okay so here's the bizarre part:

In men's shoes I wear 10.5.  In women's shoes I wear 10 wide. 

I was wearing men's 11's but I'd been wearing 11's for years without actually measuring my foot and when I did that (to figure out girl size) I realized I should probably be size 10/10.5 men's after all, and I went with 10.5 for my new sneakers and I imagine a size 10 would be too small after all.  I got size 11 womens but they ended up too big (could fit my finger between my heel and the heel of the shoe).

Anyway, I'm now obsessed with shoes.  I have like 18 pairs of shoes "saved for later" on endless.com ('free' overnight shipping is great) and I really really want ALL of them.  And most of them cost 60-70+.  It's terrible.  I'm going to try to see if I can fit into 10M without too much discomfort because it would be much more convenient than always trying to find wide width shoes.

US women 10 = 165 cm.

Unfortunately, in my country (S. Korea), the largest women's size is 155 cm in most brands, and I should order shoes from speical stores. Fortunately, I sometimes travel to Europe or U.S., purchasing shoes I will use for the next 2-3 years. US women 10W is perfect for me, but for 5-inch high heels, even size 12 was small for me. And, I like the styles in the U.S (not so much decorations in the shoes).

And, I purchased the 2.5 inch black sandals in the left photo at Payless shoes in Seattle last summer. It was about $20, and 10W size. It is very comfortable to wear, and I even can run with it.

11W or 12 (USA Size) depending on the shoe.

In women's shoes I wear mostly 11 US sizes but I do have 11W, 10W, and 12. It seems to me that certain brands are way narrower than other. In guys shoes wear 8 to 10.5 mostly 9.5 now a days.

165cm? Surely that should be millimetres!

I wear size 7 in Australia not sure what that is in the ROTW.

I think it's similar to the USA, Europe has the large numbers because they keep putting their foot in the mouth  A very bad political joke

Woops. It's 165 mm, as you konw Cindy.

It is always confusing to convert metric to American units, and vice versa. In my country, all units are now metric, but both inch and cm were once used together. Government forced every companies to use just metric unit in clothes or shoes. But still some companies use cloth sizes such as 55, 66, 77, and 88 in advertisement, but in the size label, all are just cm.

I am not exactly sure. In men's I wear a 11.5 or a 12 so probably a 13 or 14 depending on brand and style. Just another thing that I am at a disadvantage at. All of you gals seem so small and I am so jealous.

Don't be too disheartened -- I wear a mens 10.5/11, but in womens shoes I wear 10/10.5/11 (depending on brand).  I don't know why it works like that -- maybe the +2 size difference is for the smaller end of women's shoes?  So definitely try some on and see for yourself.  If you don't want to go to a store, just order something cheap from Endless.com -- they have free 365 day returns, free shipping, and free return shipping.  Took me 3-4 tries before I figured out my size.

size 11

size 9 for me

8.5 mens, around a 10 in womens depending on the style and all of that.

Neat topic. I usually wear a size 12 but often the ones labelled medium are to wide for me. I haven't found a pair of men's tennis shoes to fit me in about 5 years and most women's are much to large as well. Used to buy them all the time. Go figure. I guess it is because I live in Texas and everybody is obese now. In open toed shoes a 11.5 to 12 usually works well.

11 W actually.

I'm size seven, seems true for Aus and USA. Why do you want to know?
