Need Big Socks & Shoes in Maebashi

Submitted by lukefloor on Thu, 2008/07/03 - 20:08.

In the past when I've gone home, I've brought back suitcases full of new clothes, but I'm in immediate need of new shoes and socks. Problem: my shoe size is 29-30 cm (depending on brand), and 27-28 is the biggest I see around. I can special order big shoes, but are there any places in Maebashi with LL/XL shoes and socks? Thanks.

But if you're in the Kiryu area, there's a place called Shoe Plaza by Yaoko (not in the actual Yaoko area, but off the main road a block or so away) in Aioi-cho. It sells some running shoes up to 33 if I remember correctly.

I have looked on the internet.
I found one shop in Takasaki has some range for big shoes up to 30cm. Takasaki is not too far from Maebashi, is it?
Its worth to check up on. otherwise, you have to shop in Tokyo!!

Thanks for the suggestions.

I now am in need of new weight lifting shoes for the gym, but I have no idea where to find them, and neither did the PE teachers at school. I went to Suzuran Sports, but they just had running and some other sport shoes. Do you know where to find weight lifting shoes? Thanks.

I'm not sure how helpful this will be, but Stores like Village Vanguard and Bulldog have recently been carrying Dickies socks. I haven't been in the Bulldog (I'm pretty sure that's what it's called) on 17 across from Saty, but I imagine they might be able to help you out with the sock needs.
