I am lucky, I am a British size 8, European size 42, and can get shoes in most styles.  I still avoid tight trousers and flats as I am afraid of looking like a golf club.   Shoe sizes in the UK are supposed to be standardised, there is a British standard, but some retailers market a European size 41 as a UK size 8 which is annoying as a size 41 equates to a UK size 7.5!!!

I wear a 7 mens (or did) and 7.5 to 8 woman's shoe.

I'm unusual....I'm very petite!

I'm 6' 1" and wear a size 11 in women's, I'm a 9 1/2 in men's. my closed toe shoes were killing me because I kept getting ingrown nails. I went to a podiatrist last spring to have them permantly removed. The doctor was getting pissed off because I kept coming in wearing really cute heels. Turned out she is a size 12 but has to buy 13's alot. She kept insisting my feet were bigger than hers and then she started in about me wearing 5 inch heels. :laugh: I buy most of my heels at Target or from Frederick's of Hollywood. Frederick's has several cute styles that go to a size 13.

that was pre-t, now i wear 12 in mens.   :o

I'm lucky in that department and I have fairly small feet with a size 7.

I'm an 8 in womens and a 6 in mens. It's funny because for the longest time I wore like...a size 10 in mens just because I had that hyper-masculinity thing going on. The shoes were way too big for my feet but back then I forced myself to pretend I was manlier. Upon retrospect it's pretty silly.

O_o same exactly here! at least if you are talking about 8 US women size ^^

Sometimes maybe even 7.5 it seems.. or 7.. depends on the shoe it seems. usually more 7.5 than the rest.

I'm a size 12 mens 13 womens. I used to be bothered by it but I'm sooo over it now. But as a side note, what you wear with the shoes can either conceal or make your feet look bigger. For instance I would never wear skinny jeans because the taper of the leg would accentuate the size of my feet.

OMG Mischa I'm exactly the same size. Although I do have a few women's size 12 that I squeeze into. Boot cut jeans usually hide my feet pretty well.

Women's size 10-11 regular or wide for either size... it depends on the shoe.  And flats make my feet look like big boats :(.  So I stick to tennies or 2-3 inch casual heels.

Lisadear, I wear boot cut or flair leg pants/jeans most of the time...If I have to dress up I wear a wide leg pant from Express with my Dansko clogs...I don't wear flashy girls shoes like heels. Its just not my style...though I did try them out during the earlier stages of transition...OUCH!!!! ;)

I looove bootcut jeans, they're all I wear.  I could probably do straight leg if they were really nice, but skinny leg is out of the question.  Flared pants are a little too... flared :P.

9, 10, and 11's are pretty common women's sizes here, especially with younger women. My gf's shoe size is 10-11, depending on the brand. I live with two other women here, and one is 9-10 and the other is also 10-11. I'm 9-10, I usually get 10 'cause I like the comfort. Other women I've dated have been around 9-10, and I know a lot of women are like that around here. Then again, women all seem to be taller around here for some reason, too. *shrugs*

I wore over sized guy shoes too, but now I wear size 8 guy sneakers that look unisex and small! I get 9-10 in fem size but hopefully I'll get some foot shrinkage (width pushes me up to size 10 sometimes) to keep them down at 9 fem. Note: 5'10.

I think it's ok to have big feet.  Taller people, bigger feet.  One of my friends (genetic female) is 6'1" and she wears size 11 womens.  Doesn't look weird on her.

True. I have a friend who is almost identical to me in clothing sizes -- she's the same height, about the same weight, has the same shoe size, etc. She does have smaller hands.

Kate -- true, there are cute shoes in size 11 -- but there are a LOT MORE cute shoes in size 10. I usually fit 11, but some of my shoes are 10's (where 11's in the same style were simply too big). I wore 9 or 9.5 in men's. I wonder if there might be some size inflation happening in women's shoes just as there has been in clothing sizes.
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.

I am apparently English size 10 EEE I have to normally buy size 11 but find sometimes they are too narrow. This is size 13 in the US or 45/46 in Europe.

I went shopping today anfd tried on a pair of boots at Evans they were 10EEE and a better fit than the size 11 heels I was wearing. They are also priced cheaply.

They also have a lovely range of clothes in larger sizes for us big girls.

I must also say that Evans is very T friendly and the sales staff very helpful. I am not what you would call passable but the girls never even blinked an eye. It made me feel kinda special
