I also told her because im a size 8 in shoes finding shoes in japan
would be pretty difficult for me
she went on to tell me im a liar because she goes to china once a year

so now im confused...
do japanese sizes run smaller than american sizes or no?
In terms of what is available, I would say yes, available sizes run smaller in Japan.

However, for a male, a size 8 shoe is 26cm in Japan. That is always readily available.

As I understand bra cup sizes are scaled differently in Japan (just like shoes).
