If you live in the Okanagan and have large feet, Jim Belshaw of Roy’s Shoes in Kelowna is looking for you.
Your large feet will allow you to participate in the hunt for Okanagan’s Big Foot.
The store is offering the winner custom made shoes worth up to $1,000.
The contest runs to Oct. 31 and it is free to enter.
To enter visit Jim at the store at 1627 Ellis St. in Kelowna to have your feet measured.
There are eight categories to enter and they include business professional, blue collar professional, politician, civil servant, local celebrities, sports figures, general public and ladies.
Each category winner will win a $200 gift certificate that can be applied towards the purchase of a pair of custom made shoes.
The Okanagan’s biggest foot will win a custom made pair of shoes valued up to $1000.
According to Belshaw, men, typically, have two choices of footwear: comfort or style.
A large number of men have trouble finding a pair of dressy, casual or even golf shoes that are comfortable, he said.
“If a customer has a size 10 on one foot and a size 11 on the other foot, that’s what he gets.”
Belshaw’s shoe store has been in operation for 37 years.
