Just curious what size you wear and what's the smallest size you've squeezed into for fashion!? I've crammed my 9s into 7s - anyone beat that?
I used to squeeze into small shoes all the time when I was young because I was self-conscious about my feet (I wear a US 9.5). Now, I never do it. I can't stand painful shoes.
I think it is foolish and painful to attempt to wear shoes several sizes too small.
