ooh I must check this out too! I'm the same. My left foot is 6.5, right is sometimes even a 9 :-( I had this dream years ago about setting up such a website. But never had any idea how to go about it. Hats off to the owner!

Did you know that Clarks offer a scheme on new shoes where you can buy odd ones but you have to pay the price and a half - I did it with some boots and worked out much better value than some expensive specialist web sites - just a thought

I think they only do it instore, they were quite expensive but only other alternative was to buy two pairs which seemed ridiculous - good luck, hope you find something

I have a similar problem with my right foot being worse than my left. I get shoes from Cosyfeet - they don't sell odd shoes, just the usual two of the same size, but a lot of them have velcro straps so you can have them as tight as you wish. The ones I have are 'Naomi'. One good thing about Cosyfeet is that certain health conditions are exempt from VAT on their products, one of which is lymphoedema.
