205 squid bloody hell.
They are the sort of thing that @A_Touch_of_Cloth would have in his wardrobe for his Gilbert & Sullivan performances.

Utterly beffudled by Reef’s sizing charts, they seem to be way out of whack with everyone else’s. Makes me rather hesitant to order tbh.
I bought from here https://www.shore.co.uk/reef-ht-print-sandals-70-s-floral.html.
their size guide says reefs come marked up in US sizes, but I ordered a UK9, which I assume will come marked as a US10
I have learnt that trying to understand other peoples sizing charts is not the way to shop.
Every woman I work with, shops on line by ordering at least two sizes of everything and then send back what doesn’t fit. If they don’t offer free returns they shop elsewhere.
I did exactly that when ordering some new golf shoes from Ecco recently as I found their sizing confusing

I have bought a few pairs from the Clark’s outlet recently (yes,I am a penniless builder), and the the sizes are mental. I normally wear an 8, but have to order 6 1/2s from them.
You are penniless as you are never working, always on holiday.

Hahaha, I’ve only heard of velvet slipper being using as a euphemism for condom. Something only a fucking prick would wear, so it makes some sense give the state of those things.

I am struggling to believe their claim that the slippers are hand made and that a monogram of that size is hand embroidered in England for that price.
Bullion, the technique of embroidery with coils of wire is very specialised and madly expensive in this country. I suspect they outsource to India. The slippers are too cheap on their own to be hand made too.

Yeah, my mother does that kind of embroidery, there’s no way you could make them and get that shit embroidered in the UK for £300
They do other tasteful cheaper options without the embroidery
