Thank goodness, everytime I see Sean Marions shoes with all that lovely orange, I instantly think clown shoes!

But at least the orange shoes could match Bridget Pettis' hair.

I've only seen reference to *Women's* Air Taurasi.

Probably not a problem for us guys with dainty feet, but those width
D's out there maybe out of luck.

Perhaps "Weeble" can tell us if she has seen anything that would
suggest a wider version might be forthcoming. :)

Quote: Women's shoes are made on a narrower last (the foot-shaped form used in making shoes) than men's. In addition, the heel on a woman's shoe is narrower than the forefoot width. Men's shoes have the same width at the forefoot and heel. The medium width for women's shoes is B, while the medium width for men's shoes is D.

Women can wear men's shoes by converting their size to men's by subtracting 1.5 from their numeric size. For example, if you are a size 8 in women's, you would try a 6.5 in men's sizes. This is a loose conversion and doesn't change the difference in width and forefoot-to-heel ratios.

When I spoke with Dee at the end of last season, she said they would be worn by either female or male. In a children's shoe there may not be much difference.

But since they're listed as a woman's shoe:
It may be a story of *if the shoe fits, wear it* :lol:

weebling requires wide duck-like (or was it platypi-like?) feet...these blocks need width! 8)
