Help Finding / Importing Trainers

[Nitefly]

Hello there,

Yesterday whilst in my local 'schue' I managed to find a pair of trainers I was quite taken by. Looked very quirky and since I dress pretty MOR I thought some stand out trainers might look the part. I ended up buying one pair, but I really really wanted a pair of Nike Court Force Low Premiums in the 'quilt' / white / grey colour scheme.

Sadly, they were not availible in my size, UK11. I have searched the internet but could not find them from any UK store.

Infact, the only place I found them was on the bay (save the 'they are horrible' comments, I accept they are not for everyone):

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&Item=230270987868&Category=63850&_trksid=p3907.m29

So, just a couple of questions, if you would be so kind to ask.

What is the equivilent of UK11 size shoes? US12? (For Nike)

Is there anywhere else I should try in the UK (online) I have missed?

Has anyone ordered trainers from ebay before?

Thank you very much.

Did they search their database for you?

If they stock them they can normally get them sent from another store in your size

They said they couldn't get them in size 11, but the website might have them (yes, I realise how utterly silly that is). They didn't

Quite. Is there any UK shoe shop I may have forgotten to give a go, anyone?

Nitefly, pickyourshoes.com ships to Europe. Have a look and see if they're on there.

Thanks, but sadly they are not!

Ive had a look on all the ones i know and couldn't find them in an 11 :/

Thank you very much for your time and effort!

I may be forced to use the bay!
