You know what they say about big feet....
You know what they say about men with big feet... :hubba:

I think your best bet, OP, would be to visit your local shoe shops to see if they have any Converse in his size. I don't really have a clue where you'd go to get them on special order. Maybe you could subtly ask him where he gets his shoes from currently?
American shoe stores? They seem to supersize errything.

He gets his offline! :frown: But, I don't have all the card details needed to buy them from online and also, if i ordered them to my house..my mum would probably kill me if she found out i had a bf/or was spending alot of money on a friend. :P

Big socks.

Doh, beaten to it.

The only place I could find was Amazon, but if you can't order online, I'm not sure :s-smilie: you could always get them sent to him as a gift btw, if you do get your card to work.

No the bigger the feet, the more they look, walk and talk like neanderthals!

Some pubs have a scheme where you can get your post sent to them (as they're always open and you won't have the hassle if you're out of having to go to the sorting office to collect the post).

Maybe there's one near you? http://www.useyourlocal.com/find-local-pub/

It's the only way I can think of your mum not realising!

edit: just searched and it seems a bit crap actually! there are no pubs in London that do it :frown:

Not gonna happen I'm afraid, I'm a 13 and unless you live in a big city with a lot of luck and some hunting, you won't find anything other than trainers in a 14

tbh, the best method would be just to trawl online. as for not being able to buy online, give a friend the money and get them to buy it for you? That's what I did when I didn't want my mum to know how much I was spending on friends :P she just didn't understand how much more fun it was to spend more on friends and see the looks on their faces as opposed to spending it all on myself. :rolleyes:
