yeah man, itaewon is your best bet. no guarantees on selection, but with the army base right there, the supersize market is pretty well covered.
I'm assuming you're a man. |

I'm a size 11-12, had a hard time but the people at New Balance seemed to think it wasn't a difficult size to find. |

I saw the fifteens not at a name brand shop but at one of the onlder funkier boot-shops a little further down. I'm not saying you'll find some for sure, but I saw some when I was shopping for my thirteens a while back.
Ask the army boys you see in Itaewon--some of them are BIG. They'd know the best bet. |

Check this site out. Some English, but you will need a Korean credit card to order. Shoes seem to go up to 330 mm, which I believe is a size 15. Good luck. |

I also assume you're a man.
But if you're a woman, that's soo hot. |

there is a guy who makes custom shoes in the Itaewon Arcade downstairs in the back near the restrooms, he can set you up. If you want athletic shoes you may be SOL. I'm a 12-13 and I've never found anything I like. I now just buy them when I get back to the states or order online
BTW dont think you can get decent Mexican food there. There is no decent Mexican food in Korea |
