Um, my *foot* is 220/95; the 22 cm shoe is apparently something like 220/80, 
but since the box didn't list the width I was lost. Whom do we go after for 
implementing Mondopoint? The present mishmash of sizes is bewildering. If a 
shoemaker makes shoes that aren't designed for Mondopoint sizes, and 
describes them in Mondopoint, would they use numbers that aren't multiples of 
5?
