Where to buy size 46 trainers (sports shoes)

starkmonster · Post by **starkmonster** » Wed Mar 16, 2016 8:45 am

Yesterday I tried the following places without luck:

True brands

Wow shoe outlet on 63

The outlet stores opposite Russian market

Inside Russian market

IBC

The Puma and Adidas shops in Aeon

Anyone have any ideas where else to try? That's only a UK eleven, it's not exactly freak show territory.

It is freak show for this part of the world. I have the same size and now order all my shoes off the Internet.

I once got a size 45 pair of CAT (the heavy machinery company) brand sneakers from the shoe shop on the eastern side of the petrol station at the corner of 155/488 in TTP.

Besides that, knock off chuck taylors at Sovanna are the only >44 shoe I've managed to find here.

Same for me. Internet or load up on trips back to the west.

It really depends what you need them for. If you want decent running shoes, you will not find them in SE Asia. I have tried for 20 years....

Same, 46 here and could only get football boots that size from CityMart at Sovanna Mall. For trainers I've been quite lucky, I found the Puma shop in Aeon had a 44 which actually fits very well, sometimes worth seeing if a 44/45 will fit - definitely Adidas shoes for me in a 44 are impossible, as are their 45s. Casual shoes I can sometimes get away with a 45, proper leather work shoes though are a definite order from England & deliver job.

Aye, I need lifting shoes, not lovely, lovely man cross trainers....even if they had the right size.

Arnold didn't even wear shoes half the time when he was squatting, lovely, lovely man.

Seriously, just order them online or ask a friend to bring some back for you.

Did the OP try the clothes shop on the 2nd floor of Aeon? The trainers in there were Sketchers and some Singapore made ones iirc. They looked decent enough.

Thanks for all the tips. Next stop:

City Mart Sovahnna

Puma Aeon to see if I can squeeze a 45

Aeon department store

Cheers!

This place on street 328

https://www.google.com/maps?layer=c&pan ... shorturl=1

Sometimes has UK 11. I bought a pair of UK 11 Sketchers there last month for $30 (same model as I had bought the year before from the Sketchers store for about $100)
They also have New Balance sport shoes and some generic Chinese brands.
Leather shoes they have Clarks, Geox, Cats, Hush Puppies and a few more name brands. All shoes $25-40
They also stock Reef sandals ($25).

They've got kid's Pumas and M&S school shoes, and women's shoes also.

All are 'ex-stock' (or possibly seconds, so check the stitching and quality) from Cambodian factories.

Worth a look: can be hit and miss as they don't have a huge stock of different styles or sizes.
Combine it with a trip to Sovanna, same corner of town.

Ended up buying a pair in City Mart Sovanha, looks like they just had a delivery as there's shoe boxes everywhere. They sizes all the way up to a UK 13. They even had half sizes.

Thanks for the tip Rana, I'll check that place it next time.
