These are my current faves for mori and some classic coords from Ella.

>>8841688
I guess that's the opposite though: normie shoes for jfash

>>8841688
That stitching is awful.

Has anyone bought from queen bee? What's their quality like?

Try Modcloth - they have super cute shoes that can be worn in and out of Lolita

The usual suspects - some are more/less normie appropriate
-Hotter
-Irregular Choice (damn uncomfortable though!)
-Fluevog
-Hush Puppies
-Clarks (sometimes)
-Naturalizer (also sometimes, very seasonal)
-Melissa (particularly the three strap Melissa x VW)
-Demonia/Bordello
-Miz Mooz

For those in Australia, Ziera has also got some awesome loliable shoes - their range in store is much better than what they show on their website.

are bodyline's RHS comfy?

>>8841750
Do they still exist? Tried finding them a few months ago and came up with nothing.

>want to order shoes from aliexpress
>chinese holiday so why bother?
>ebay is overpriced
>actual shoe webshops ain't selling shit I care to buy for $50+
Ugh.

I'm looking for flat brown shoes that could be worn with classic as well as normie wear.
Unfortunately everything like that I find is either sold out in my size or 200$.
Do you gulls have flat shoes inspo? Or like 1cm of heels ? My feet cannot bear heels anymore.

Check out Modcloth. They have super cute flats, I would love to wear them but flats are extremely uncomfortable to me, I need at least a little bit of heel to walk nicely.

>>8841688
oh lord no

>>8842847
I feel you so much. I'm trying to find pink sweet lolita shoes but only taobao and clobba are giving me things I want. I'm assuming Clobba will be going on CNY too so I don't want to order.

>>8841678
I really like this style. It's simple, but still cute.

>>8843360
I hate the chunky heel, I wish I could find some like bodyline 274

>>8843554
I'm so butthurt that Yan discontinued this style. Can we please beg him to bring these back?

>>8842763
I assumed they were since a couple aliexpress stores had them. Maybe I'll reconsider and go for antaina or something just to be safe.

>>8842763
They are still sold at shops in Japan?

>>8843657
Ah yes, I meant an online shop or something. I'm pretty sure they had their own Rakuten shop or something?

>>8843562
People have already tried, I'm just out on taobao trying to find a similar style.

You could get generic bridesmaid shoes and shoe clips with bows, but satin is so terible.

>>8843072

But only when they have sales

Otherwise those 'vegan' plastic shoes aren't worth the money.

>>8843072
These shoes aren't cut for lolita though. If they had a small heel they's work.

>>8843554
Let's make a petition or ask Yan to sell them again. These shoes are literally the only thing I want to buy from Bodyline.

>>8843835

Not the anon who suggested the shoes, but she said she wanted shoes she could also have for normie wear, and flats are comfortable. Sure they don't do much for your legs, but I also don't like wearing heels too often unless the occasion is super dressy, or I'm sitting for most of it.

People need to calm down with flats. Plus those actually have some nice detail, they aren't $10 paper thin flats from forever 21 or anything.

>>8843859
But OP wanted shoes that work for lolita AND normie wear, and these don't work for classic lolita at all. Flats simply are not appropiate for something as dressy as lolita, not even casual lolita. It's like ditching the head wear; you can't wear a frilly dress with many details and a poofy skirt and skip everything else. It's just unbalanced.
And by heel I'm talking about a very small one like pic related. If you feel uncomfortable by a heel this small, you should consider buying better shoes, because even men's shoes have bigger heels.

>>8843859
Pic related, left shoe is the men's version of >>8843072 and even has a small heel. Right would be perfect version for lolita and normies imo.

these look ghastly

>>8843884
Speaking of TPS do you think a black TPS might work in a gothic outfit? I have been hunting Vampire Requiem but the only black shoes I have are TPS so I am thinking I might have to buy new shoes for that.

>>8843916
They might, but they have to have a higher heel than the low standard.

I was at Forever 21 and these made me stop, are these loliable or not? I can't decide. They're like the classic version of tea parties or something. They trouble me so.

Imo it would work, but it wouldn't look as good as with RHS or victorian style boots. If you're looking to get into gothic I'd advise you to get victorian boots, they look neat with everything.

>>8843924
I have slipped disc so its nearly impossible spending many hours with heels without feeling excruciating pain. I was thinking of getting pic related in case TPS couldnt work. Any suggestions of mature-looking shoes with low heels?

>>8843922
>>8843922
They wouldn't work for lolita, if you ask me they look really bad for normies even. The heel is wide and clunky while the shoe is really thin and small. Especially lolita needs more, like more of the foot being covered and some bows.

>>8843926
In this case I think >>8843554 or pic related would look good.

>>8843931
These look precious, thanks for the suggestion.

>>8843931
the soles on these are really slippery, I'd recommend sticking on a rubber sole or something.

>>8843946
Seconding, I own these and I put a seperate sole in them. They aren't top-notch quality but since they are so cheap they are easily replacable.

>>8843916
>do you think a black TPS might work in a gothic outfit?

No. If you're that cheap, just get some Bodyline ones

>>8843736

Does anyone know a good site for slightly bigger sizes? I'm size 8 or 7.5 at least and it's so hard to find my size for all of these cute shoes.

>>8844660
>I'm size 8 or 7.5 at least and it's so hard to find my size for all of these cute shoes.

I call bull. Most go up to 8 at least.

I'm a size 9.5 US sizes
I want cute shoes.

>>8841747

Ouch, no kidding. On the ball for the heel shaping/finish and overall finish, but wow, that stitching kills it.

>>8844660
I'm a size 7.5 and it's easy for me?

>>8844660
Unless that's UK sizing, that's bullshit. A size L/24.5 in Japan is about a US 7.5-8 (although it's always best to measure your foot) and most Chinese stores do up to a 39/40 which is again, 7.5-8. So you have Asian and western options...

>>8844660
>mfw 8.5-9
It's not that bad, but it's just above the limit of what sizes cute shoes go until so I can't help but wondering why my feet decided to grow that extra cm.

Innocent World uses the shoes in pic related so often but they don't appear anywhere in their shop, are they an old release that's long sold out or just a random pair of shoes?

>>8843835
I've seen girls using similar shoes in otome and casual lolita coords, they're Oxfords after all, they're popular enough.

>>8843769
Modcloth shoes are vegan? Damn, I like them but I don't want to contribute to human stupidity. And also, if they are made from plastic, wouldn't they be cheaper?

>>8845312
how are vegan shoes human stupidity? I'm so confused/not vegan

>>8845388
I'm assuming in this case they're labeled as ~vegan~ only because the manufacturer is too cheap to use real leather or even higher quality material in general.

>>8843931
these are so cheap looking

>>8845392
oh sure, vegan leather is a dumb buzzword to be throwing around.

>>8845312
Careful, you might cut someone with those edges.

>>8843072
These are seriously lacking in proper form, they might as well be ballerina slippers with wingtips painted on.

why cant we have a jews thread instead?

>>8845310
i wear oxfords all the time with classic, they're perfectly fine for casual coords.

>>8843859
They are pretty much paper thin flats from forever 21 with wingtips glued on. Gotta agree with >>8845538 here.

I think complete flats on dressier shoes just look weird. Something as small as pic related is better.

>>8845312

It's a marketing ploy used especially by ~quirky~ cheap shoe stores to try to upsell their plastic shit. Sadly it works.

I don't give a shit so long as my plastic shoes are well under $30 and cute.

Oh wow, thanks! Seems like they don't carry all the cute designs that I remember anymore, though....everything looks so clunky.

>>8845685
Marui still carries them. Their styles kind of vary by season, and shit is chunky right now. There are a few more delicate style boots and platforms, but that's about it.

https://search-voi.0101.co.jp/voi/brand/11157/

If you like Queen Bee, you might check out Yosuke/Leche on Rakuten. You can also check Yahoo Auctions or AmazonJP for both brands. You'll get shops that have new stock in limited sizes and colours from past releases.

Dropped my pic.

These are my favourite Leche shoes. They're a staple that comes out every year, in different colourways. I want to get them in matte and the faux-patent black one of these days.

>>8845310
>>8845550
But with no heel, they won't work with lolita properly. It's better than sneakers and might look ok with otome, but it's better for normie.

>>8843554
I have these in pink but they have already gotten scuffed so badly because I wear them to death....I even wore them to my prom. They're literally the best shoes.

Does anybody know where I might be able to find some Liz Lisa-esque knee high boots? My feet are too big for any of their shoes. It kinda breaks my heart because I really like a lot of the footwear they come out with, but I can never seem to find anything thats quite on par to what I want in my shoe size.

>>8847722
I own these and love them.
Wished they still made them, would totally buy back-up pairs.

>>8842462
Very, but they do run narrow so you might want to go half a size up.

>>8845058
I get the feeling they're an older release with a bunch of the embellishments removed but I can't say for sure.

>>8845043
UK 7.5-8 here, not bullshit

>>8845709
What model as these?

>>8848220
Style number varies by year. That year's release number is in the image name: 2600061

Current model is: 2600452

You can find them on Rakuten and they're currently in (limited) stock on Marui.

Also, just a note. They tend to change the toebox a bit from one year to the next. The current release has a decorative cut panel, versus the clean panel in that photo. Pic related is the current version that's easiest to find.

>>8844660
I'm a UK 7 and I struggle to find cute shoes all the time. I usually custom order from antaina.

>>8845388
Vegan leather is pretty horrible for the environment if that's one of you reasons for being vegan.

so I'm going to wear lolita to a con for the first time, and I don't want to wear flat/super low heel shoes because I have huge feet and look awful in them, is it a bad idea to wear heels? Any tips on what kinds of shoes I should get for walking all day?

>>8848880
Go for medium heels rather than high, get yourself some good insoles for the shoes, and make sure you wear them regularly/break them in well before the event.

Your feet will still probably hate you at the end of the day though.

>>8848880
just bring a spare pair of flats for when you get tired/feet start hurting.

Has anyone with size 9 feet try lizlisas L size? Was it toe crushing?I want a pair of lizlisas and was thinking of doing the ice trick to stretch them but idk if that'd work at all.

Damn it, I'm never going to find a pair of multi-strap shoes in my size. Just received these and right back to ModCloth they go. Why the fuck would you attach the buckles with a single thickness of PU? WHY? (Because they were overpriced plastic garbage, that's why. I knew, and yet I could not resist the siren song of the gold-tone buckles that suit all my accessories...)

>>8849015
I wear a US 8.5 but have pretty wide feet. I took a leap and bought a pair of wedges from LL and they are hell to wear. I can't even zip up the back of them. I was so mortified. I don't have any experience with their other kinds of shoes unfortunately so I'm not sure if the same can said for those.

>>8849442
What size are you? Leur Getter had some cute multi-strap shoes a couple months back.

>>8848866
are the flowers removable? they kinda look it.

>>8849015
I'm a 7.5 and I just fit into size L. I have one pair of L wedges that are a bit too small, so I wouldn't chance it. Sorry, anon.

Fuck right off, you size 7.5-8s. Fuck right off

>>8849015
I wear a 7-8 depending on width and I usually get a size L in Japanese shoes. My longer foot is about 24.2cm, if that helps.

>>8853861
Shit sucks man. Size 10/40 is so hard to find for loli type shoes.

>>8843926
Boots don't need more than a minimal heel to suit lolita, you could try those? I often wear boots with gothic when I want a low heel. Also if you can balance on them, RHS and other platform shoes can be pretty comfy if there isn't a big difference between the toe and heel, even if they look high.

>>8845562
Something that height is also more comfortable, and I say that as someone who's not a fan of heels at all (weak ankle). Really flat shoes like Converse and ballet flats are actually bad for your feet and not that comfortable after a day of walking, especially with the lack of arch support. I prefer something with a 1-2cm heel. If you look at sports shoes and running shoes, they have a very slight lift around the heel.

>>8848880
Bring plasters, maybe even the special gel ones for blisters.

>>8843554

>>8845550

Me too! I wear gothic/classic and I have just a one pair of loliable shoes, medium heel oxfords. They fit with most coords.

I still want some variety so I ordered three pairs of shoes from Antaina.

Anyone know any western brands that make round toed kitten heels? I have large feet and I'm tall. I want kitten heels to avoid adding a lot of height and round toe to make my large feet not look bigger. All I seem to find is pointed toes.

Would you guys seriously consider Bodyline's Rocking-Horse shoes? I really want a pair, but then I found out the Bodyline ones were all foam..

Anyone know where I can get non-Vivienne with _real_ wooden soles?

>>8855510
Have you tried any of the brands here? >>8842207
Low heels are often quite chunky unfortunately, not really the smaller kitten heel. Irregular choice shoes often have small kitten heels with the round toe but need insoles for comfort.

>>8853861
Same. It sucks.

>>8853869
Shit. Sorry. They have gone up to a 25.5cm insole before for their LL I think. That's probably still not enough though, I assume?

It's not on the site, but my local Fluevog store just put out a shoe with this heel but is a pump with a bow on the front and a laser cut lace pattern on the side. Right now they only have a seafoam green with a gold overlay, but it's going to come in black soon! I'm so excited, gonna spend my paycheck on them when they come out.

I have replicas from Taobao that were listed as "factory seconds" (I don't buy that for a second). The listing, and every other listing I had bookmarked, has disappeared though.

Not sure where else they'd turn up.

>>8858166
Yeah, I found one listing on Taobao, but they where 1600 CNY, and I'm not paying that much for replicas. I, as well, had bookmarked a lot of listings, but all of them are gone now. I really regret not getting a pair while they were popular.

Just look up Mono shoes and all their stuff will come up. They also have some other shoes that I think would work for lolita but the color selection is small.

Need some help here, gulls.
I got a pair of shoes in from Taobao the other day and the straps on it were far too short to actually go over the bridge of my foot. The soles fit fine (if I sized up they would have been too big), but the straps weren't working out at all.
I went ahead and cut four of them off (they were mainly decorative so no biggie). I'm pretty much left with the two near the toes and then the one around my ankle, which support me enough.
Thing is though, I have pic related to deal with now. Two on one side and one on the other on both shoes. What can I do to cover them up in a cute way?

>>8860381
Fuck, sorry for the huge file size. I'm on mobile.

>>8860381
When in doubt, stick bows on it.

>>8860381
Maybe some kind of rhinestone gems you can stick over the gashes? Just make sure you do it on the other shoe too so it looks even.

>>8860381
You could artistically cluster pearls or some type of gem/jewelry around that area (and maybe back over the heel too?) so that they cover it?

>>8860396

Where can I find shoes like >>8843554 for size 4.5/21.5?

Children's section doesn't work since the shoes generally have no heels or very childish chunky & low heels, and the straps are likely to be Velcro.

>>8860459
>>8860453
There are so many of their shoes I want. Right now, lusting for the Seraphina and Rococo Taco (what the fuck are some of these names?!)

Do you think these shoes could work in a lolita coord? I can see them working with ero, but what about gothic?

I decided to go quantity over quality on shoes, can anyone recommend any place for cheap shoes? it can be child's shoes but variety is important

Super dumb question soz.
Gulls that wear a UK 3/euro 36, what size do you usually wear in Asian shoes?
I did measure the insole length of a few of the pairs I own and it's usually around 23-23.5cm so should be easy enough, however most shoe size conversion charts list that as a uk4/eu 37, which seems to be quite a big discrepancy. What would be the safest size to go for?

target's got their president's day sale, 25% off, and some heels in a bunch of different colours if you need basics for classic. idk if they're too normal fag but I'm getting some

>>8866881
Look at brands like Clarks, Naturalizer, Hotter and Hush Puppies, and have a look at sales/last year's shoes. You should find something decent for around $50, I presume you're on a budget if you're relying on bodyline for basic shoes like those.

What stores stock in larger sizes for jfash?

>>8870588
Mojo Moxy does the Primadonna, which has three evenly divided straps
http://www.amazon.com/Mojo-Moxy-Womens-Primadona-Boot/dp/B00EM3895O

There's also the Capone, with different strap spacing, but it appears to be sold out pretty much everywhere.

I'm trying to find the other ones I've come across before, but they appear to be out of season or sold out so far. Steve Madden and Mossimo did knock offs of some VW shoes a while back that looked very similar to Jane Marple's 4 straps in the end.

>>8870659
I did see Primadonna mentioned in the archives, but something about it seems a bit more mature than what I'm looking for.

I do like >>8870625 but do you gulls think it would be possible to remove and replace the buckle and buckle clasps?

>>8870673
I have those, why do you want to do that? You can adjust the straps even though they don't technically unbuckle. I'll show you how they're put together if you want when I get home.

How much of a sin would it be to wear these with a matching coord to keep my tootsies warm?

>>8871150
Don't post it online and no one will give a flying fuck. It's pretty simple.

>>8871150
I hate this fucking boots with all my soul, even in normal clothing, they are super ugly and I don't know how anyone would voluntarily wear this piece of shit.

>>8871150
The severity will depend on what the coord looks like, but it'll be a sin regardless. Honestly though if it's going to be cold, it's better to have a less-than-stellar coord than to freeze your toes off.

>>8871156
>>8871159

I have a pair of uggs that I use as house shoes. They've never gone outside. No one but my boyfriend and the mailman has seen me wear them.

They are fucking hella warm on concrete floors. I had chilblains two winters in a row and caved, because regular slippers and woollen socks didn't cut it.

>>8871248
It's not really an issue if it's not particularly snowy in OP's region.

>>8871311
OT, I've always hated ugg boots but i found a pair of flats by the brand that I really want to buy but idk if I can't bear the shame.

>>8871315

Still, ugg boots in cold weather are hardly the practical answer. If it snows or rains you're pretty much fucked. Personally I think it's better to invest in a pair of nice winter boots instead. If you're going to spend so much in clothing you might as well get nice shoes that don't turn to slush at the faintest hint of water.

I'm not overly manlet-ish at 5'11" but the character I want to do is like 6'1" in-costume and he wears boots. If I can get a hold of (or possibly make) screen accurate boots without the platforms, can I like cut out wedge patterns from a 2x4 and simply glue them on? Is there a better material like solid rubber or fiberglass? What kind of glue would hold wood to the synthetic rubber of the base boots? Will I break my ankle trying to walk in them? What material could I use on the bottom of the wedges so it doesn't sound like I'm wearing clogs?

>>8876561
Just get inserts. Also 5'100 and 6'1 aren't that far apart, you can probably get away with not doing anything with your height and nobody'll notice

Flatform/platform lace ups are usually a safe bet, particularly ankle and calf boots. Don't go for scalloped lace detailing à la Angelic Pretty unless you're trying to do sweet ouji, go for more masculine detailing like tooled leather or female shoes that are clearly menswear inspired

>>8871212

I would recommend looking at Melissa shoes, the quality is pretty good and they have some styles that would definitely be suitable for lolita.

If you happen to buy a pair of their flats I would recommend wearing insoles with them, though. Not much support in the arch at all.

Antaina sells shoes this size. I believe you would be size 43.5 as I'm a 10 and order 43.

>>8871468
The ones with fleece in them are not flattering, I tried on a few styles last fall. They make your feet look odd. I had a pair without fleece and they were OK but wore out fast because they were a special finish leather

>>8886617
What size are you and how do you find the width? I have insoles so often need slightly wider shoes sometimes

I wear like a size 14 US women's and all I ever really see for those sizes are stripper and drag queen shoes. I have had no luck in finding anything even simple like mary janes. Is there anything I can do for lolita?

>>8892548
39.5eu but my feet are very narrow. Things that fit in length pretty much always slip off my heel. I'd say they're true to size and a regular width, though you can change it a bit with the straps, which is useful for insoles that push your feet up. I say regular since I can't wear them without decently thick socks otherwise they'll slip around. I bought the 8.5, my feet measure 24.8-25cm last time I checked. The inside of the shoes are surprisingly cushy.

>>8892878
Get them customized. Antaina does bespoke orders and so does Anna House, though, the former is better quality. I haven't shopped via taobao in years; any other bespoke loliable shoe shops from Taobao worth mentioning?

>>8893172
People always recommend Antaina for larger shoes, but their stuff is pretty much useless for the less cutesy j-fashion styles (or that specific early goth inspired look). I lean more towards classic lolita and aristo and I have better luck finding shoes that work with my wardrobe in normalfag stores than on Antaina.

>>8892878
If you do end up going with Antaina, I recommend you pick something with a chunkier heel because they don't always scale up their heels along with the shoe size, and a thin heel meant for a size 8 shoe looks ridiculously dinky on a size 14 one.

>>8893136

What style do you prefer for country lolita? I feel like shoes similar to OP's pic would suit it well but I'm unsure. I've only ever worn sweet but I want to cross into more classic/country.

>>8894333
As another bigfoot I'm watching this with interest. Fluevogs go up to like a 12, but I have a wide foot and the majority of their stuff is too narrow in the toe box for me.

>>8895381
You can wear anything from subdued sweet shoes to plain mary-janes/oxfords to granny boots. Just make sure they are not too ornate/regal.

>>8894553
As someone with wide feet, it doesn't matter if the size is right if they're still too narrow. And if they're not real leather they won't stretch very much.

>everyone gave me the stink eye when they saw my feet

it still hurts. I had cute shoes in my purse to change into for photos though.

>>8895199
So, I checked, and it was actually LL (according to rakuten) so, there's that.

>>8895171
>>8895199
Having bought shoes in Japan and experienced multiple issues buying online due to weird sizing charts, I'd be pretty wary about saying an LL would fit size 26 or even that size 26 is equivalent to a size 10.

The S/M/L/(LL+) sizing seems to vary between brands but as far as I can tell, S is usually 22.5-23cm depending on brand, M is 23.5-24cm and L is 24.5-25cm i.e. some size S is good for 22.5cm, some better for 23cm...ditto with size M and L
So it may be possible for LL to be 26cm but I would definitely not guarantee that!
It's a bit like buying shoes between different brands here - I wear anything between a 6.5 and 8 in US sizing, 5-6 UK, or 37.5-39 EU sizing due to different shoe design and width.
I usually buy a size L to accommodate my foot width rather than the length, I can fit some M sized shoes. My feet are 24cm, but on the borderline of "wide" fit in the UK.

As for 26=10 it's probably best to measure your foot. No doubt some size 10 is 26cm but for other shoes it really may not be. Nissen gives the conversion as size 7=24, size 8=25 which means size 10 is 27cm which is the same as what Converse use as well...and I imagine that 1cm difference is a big deal!!

Does anyone know what ToAlice's sizing is like?
I'm about a 9.5 and I'm wondering if the 40's might just fit or not?

>>8898916
If they're like regular chinese brands, a size 40 is gonna be more like a euro 39/size 8.

Gulls, do you have any recommendations for jfash shoes which are decent quality? I'm becoming quite desperate, all of the cute ones I've bought look so cheap they make the whole outfit look incredibly costumey.

>>8859108
I picked up the cream colored version. They're cute, but you get what you pay for.

>>8859108
If you're small and have big feet these gap hardcore at the ankle. I'm a short bigfoot and that's by problem with them.

>>8886624
Anon, do they ever have sizes in store that aren't online? My size has sold out online and I'm wondering if it's worth asking an american to check in store.

>jealous of your purchase

>>8904861

Nope. The Fluevog online store updates live according to what they have in their total worldwide inventory.

If your size is gone for one particular design and color, it's gone. And Fluevog rarely does re-releases. Sometimes they will release a new color with an already-existing design. But a past design in the same color? No.

However, you can buy secondhand on eBay or the Fluemarket.

>>8905295
Thanks anon, in a way that makes me happier knowing there isn't a pair I could have hunted down if geography was different. I might just settle for the Odette in burgundy, but I'm still checking the Fluemarket.

How comfortable are Fluevogs vs. something like Jane Marple's real leather shoes? I'm assuming Fluevogs are generally the better option, but I'm not sure since a lot of Jane Marple shoes have less of a heel and look very functional. Are there any exceptionally uncomfortable Fluevogs?

Generally Fluevogs are comfortable (the real leather stretching to fit the shape of your feet helps). There are a few pairs that are made of pleather or suede, neither of which really stretch.

Some styles go a little narrow, too. I have wide feet, and passed on the Sight and Ludovika after trying them on in store.

If at all possible, try Fluevogs on in a physical store, and walk in a pair for a good while around the store (on HARD floor) before you commit to buying them. If you don't have a Fluevog store near, search online reviews.

The nice thing about fluevogs too is that they carry replacement heel caps and things you need over the life of the shoe to keep them in good order.

Fluevogs for me are not as reliably comfortable as "comfort" brands like hush puppies, hotter or Clarks and I find the sizing very inconsistent between styles in 'vogs. That being said, the one pair I own are crazy comfortable and I absolutely love them. I agree that you really really need to be able to try them on if possible.
