The size and variety issues are a big problem when buying shoes. I see the following sizes on some Chuck Taylors: 9.5 Men, 9 1/2 Men, 9.5 (D M), "Womens 11.5/Mens 9.5," and some European sizes mixed in. If I want to buy some shoes, I have to check every combination of my size and the colors to find what I am looking for. Sometimes there are multiple names for the same color, too, e.g. "gray" and "charcoal." I think the bottom line that Amazon is letting sellers enter whatever values they want. They should make sellers choose things like shoe sizes from a dropdown that has a standardized list.
