CC_700L Black Cloth Shoes with Straps

These comfortable cloth shoes are sometimes known as Chinese flats. They feature sturdy black cloth uppers and rubber soles. They are fully lined with a soft cotton fabric. The cloth strap goes across the top of your foot and is secured with a little buckle. This makes the shoe somewhat adjustable. There are many of these shoes on the market, we prefer the higher quality brands which feature a fully lined and padded interior, reinforced stitching and a fully sewn construction (as opposed to being glued together).

These shoes go well with most time periods and garb styles. For a more elegant look, we also sell brocade shoes and velvet shoes. There are also black canvas shoes without straps, as well as canvas shoes in several lovely colors. See the other listings for these shoe options.

The Black Cloth Shoes with straps are available in metric sizes 21 through 42, which is child size 5 to Lady's size 12 or Men's size 10. To translate this to American sizes, ladies add 30 to their regular shoe size and gentlemen add 32 to their regular show size. For example, a ladies American size 8 would be a metric size 38. See the table below. A Gentleman's size 10 would be a metric size 42.

This listing is for the adult shoe sizes, children's sizes are listed seperately as CC_700L_Kids.

When we researched shoes and shoe sizes, we found that there are no standards for shoe sizes. Different manufacturers may have sizes that vary between them. There is also no standard shoe size conversion chart. We have developed the following chart through long experience with selling these shoes. To be sure of one's shoe size, the shoe really should be tried on.

Trying on shoes is encouraged, but please do not wear them outdoors until you know that they fit. (We reserve the right to refuse shoe returns if they display visible wear or abuse.) If your shoes do not fit, please call for a return authorization number, and ship them back to us. Let us know what shoe size you would like in return. You are responsible for shipping costs, but we will gladly exchange shoes until you are satisfied.
