Having different-sized feet could definitely put a dent in your wallet, having to buy two pairs of shoes every time and all. But with Uneven Feet, an Australian-based website, customers with disparate-sized soles are given a handy (footy?) solution.
According to Springwise.com, Uneven Feet records the customer’s shoe sizes and finds their ‘opposite matches,’ which allows them to arrange shoe swaps or joint purchases. This way, customers can continue on with their life without having to pay more for shoes or suffer through ill-fitting footwear.
