Ah shoes sizes are really difficult to find in Japan for western people. Some of my friend were mention about it. they are going to the store which is from europe like H&M. Online shop which called LOCONDO http://www.locondo.jp/ , you can return even after shipping. So it is online store but you don't have to pay return fee, if it's not fit. Maybe you can't find any shoes that fits in you at Japanese retail store. :(

Shoes are easy. I am a 10.5 US (28.5 in Japan) and have had almost no problem finding my size. As others have said, if you go online you will find your size. ABC Mart and the "official" stores you can find in most malls/department stores (ex. Adidas, Adidas Originals, Asics, Nike etc.) usually have my size as well. If they don't have your size in store, look on their official websites. Pants/jeans are easy too - most Japanese chain stores (Right On, UNIQLO, GU) have my size (US32x32). When in doubt, try it on. Even when written in the US measurements, some are still too small/too big (same as the US though). T-shirts are harder - I am 6`2" and have bought way too many t-shirts that were just too small (vertical-wise), especially at UNIQLO or other cool T-shirt stores. I have found the XL at GU or ZARA is close to a US L, but quality is a mixed-bag there. Most Japanese shops are just too small. Long sleeve is also very hard (sleeves are just too shirt). When in doubt, head to GAP or OLD NAVY. New shops for each store sprung up last year in my city.
