  • Ordered a new pair of shoes for my size 12 feet. These just turned up.

    This happened to me with socks.

    No indication that they were children's socks... just a size range UK 9-11.

    Wish they'd just size everything in EU sizes as the problem is that UK and US sizes reach 14 and reset to 1 🤷

    At least with EU sizes the number continues to go up as the feet get bigger.

  • Wish they'd just size everything in EU sizes

    This. I make a point of using EU sizing in all my dealings with shoes because it avoids confusion.

    I hate: GB AU US shoe sizing and the Amerian date format idiocy

  • the Amerian date format idiocy

    yeah... this one is crazy.

    I go further out of my way to do everything in ISO dates, and if a system allows it I set my timezone and locale to Iceland which is UTC, and that really screws with people.
