A place is out of stock, discontinued of the men's size. I am a size 9 1/2-10 for Men's NIKE's. They do have Women's.. so if I want to pick up the women's shoes, what size would I get??

They probably don't go high enough. It'd probably be something like size 15 or something ridiculous like that.

I wear a women's 9-ish, men's 7 1/2 (which means I can wear my son's shoes now!). I'd guess you'd wear a women's 12, which isn't unheard of to be in stock these days. Most shoe stores go up to a women's 11, but it's possible a store specializing in athletic shoes would have a larger range.

Aren't womens shoes narrower than mens? I'd encourage you to be patient, the new overpriced Jordans should be back in stock shortly. ;)

Why not go to another place?

Women's shoes are narrower than men's.

Women's shoes typically run about 2 sizes smaller than mens. But, Nikes tend to run about 1/2 a size smaller than other brands. I agree with the others and suggest you to try out a 12.

how about looking for another pair of shoes if they don't have them?

i'm a size six in womens and wear boys 4.5. it's generally you go up 1.5 sizes.

but women's shoes are not gonna fit men as well, unlike the other way around.

Hrmm...I dunno....wouldn't you feel a bit self-conscious about yourself, especially if someone gives a good comment about your shoes? I know I would. But then again, that could just be me.

Um... you're gonna buy a woman's shoe? You know there are other stores...
