There is a battle going on that few people know about. The airlines are conspiring against the shoe companies by setting ridiculously low weight allowances on luggage, limiting the number of shoes that women can pack during travel.
This is why I am incredibly grateful for business partners with the same shoe size. I didn't plan it that way. I didn't find shoes clustered around a doorway at an event, peak inside, then recruit those that put the same size as me. Shoe size isn't on any questionnaires my future business partners fill out. It wouldn't matter if it was, because people are foot liars. Men lie up and women lie down. This in one of the many things I learned during my highschool career as a Joggers shoe salesperson.
Sometimes luck is in your favor and you can collect a tribe of fellow size 9ers to travel with. All feeling secure in the knowledge that you are going to be able to bail each other out when the shoes you were planning for a big event while traveling over time zones, morphed into something uncomfortable and hideous.
It's just good shoe math.
