Anyone have suggestions for stores which have a good selection of large shoes (ie. 29 cm or bigger)? I'm looking for some sneakers and it's too hit and miss with most stores. I've been hunting around for a few weeks and when I see something I like they usually only have up to 28cm (and very narrow too).
Suggestions for stores on the Yamanote line anywhere from Meguro around to Shinjuku would be great.

Try the big shoes store at Gotanda almost directly across the station, beside a Pachinko parlor, toward Meguro. You can't miss it! (I don't know the name of the store, only that I can see it from the train on my way from Gotanda to Shibuya).

Hope that gives u a clue!

The shoes shop in Gotanda is called "Hikari" or "Big-b", and the size is from 27cm to 36cm.
Address is 2-4-2 Nishigotanda, close to Gotanda station on Yamanote line.
They have a web site at www.big-b.jp or www.hikari-shoes.co.jp

Hope it helped,

Suggest a good store for casual shoes at Yamanote.
