long, narrow shoes

Last Minute Nellie here...I will be in NYC Fri. thru Tues. I wear an 11 1/2 narrow and believe it or not the catalogues and Nordstrom aren't much help. Do you know of any stores in NYC that carry shoes that look like gondolas ? - just kidding. Seriously-long , narrow shoes? Thank you.

Here are two stores on the Upper West Side that may have something:

http://www.harrys-shoes.com/shop/home.aspx

Your other option would be custom-made, should be a number of places to choose from in NYC, at a price, of course.

Good luck (10W here!)

Have you tried zappos.com? I wear a AA (though a 9) and fewer and fewer stores are carrying them - but Zappos has quite a lot.

The benefit of Zappo's is free shipping either way (they understand that you can never tell about fit without trying them on). I used to do Nordstom's more - but they're carrying fewer and fewer narrows
and more and more wides.

I second Zappos. Amazing place, smart business owners. I know that I get a fit in certain brands, so it's a safe bet to order from them. Plus, they arrive the next day. Here's another option for the holidays:

Stuart Weitzman seems to have a reasonable number of this size online.

If you like the designs and can deal with the prices, I'd phone their shop on Madison Ave. & see if they have the size.

Many of the dept. stores also carry the brand, but not sure how likely they'd be to have the size.
