Shoe size conversions!

Hi everyone! I'm a newbie from London and I'm very happy to meet you all! Anyway, my question is that I have a very good friend who lives in Medellin and I want to buy her little sister some shoes here in London!! Now my friend tells me she's a 36 but does anyone know what size that is in terms of British or U.S. sizes?

Many thanks for any help you might be able to give me!! I have 1000 and one more questions I would like to ask as I really want to visit my friend and her family some time next year - but I'll save those for another time!! Cheers guys!!

Shoe Size Conversions Hi there Davranpau,
I work at a footwear wholesaler and if you have a european size 36 this is equal to a 5-5.H US size.

If she is a small 36 then she would be a 5 or a large 36 she would be a 5.H

Hope that helped,
Rgds, Joandrea

shoe size conversions! Many thanks for all of your advice guys - it is very much appreciated! She has just turned 12 years old and is such a beautiful and happy girl which is something I have noticed about all of my friend's family and friends - laughter is never very far away, which sadly is lacking in the UK at the moment - especially London where I'm from!!

Gracias!

No problem.. its tuff finding nice stuff to take back home to colombia, but try store like Faith and Aldo in Oxford Street, always managed to find some nice shoes for my G.friend there!

Somehting that is the 'in thing' in Colombia are Sketchers, theres a branch in Oxford street, you should be able to find something nice there for a 12yr old!

Where to purchase in Colombia I've found large/wide shoe sizes impossible to find in Medellin.

I'm looking for 13 EE shoes in Colombia. (size 47)
I'm in Medellin at the moment, but will be going to Bogata next week.

Any information or ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks
