Forums > Living in Kunming > Buying shoes!

Anyone have any recommendations on where I can get size 45 Merrills (or similar decent make) gore-tex hiking shoes? There's another thread recommending some places on Qing Nian Street and Ren Min Xi.. I've tried all these places with no luck - they only go up to 44.

Can't believe how hard it is to find size 45 (UK size 10) shoes here, it's not exactly freakishly large!

Also, I was wondering whether the shoes you buy in a decent looking shop are likely to be fake. I don't want to end up spending a lot of money on a fake brand! Do I need to be wary?
