I'm doing a cosplay of Nozaki-kun, and it's a common japanese high school uniform shoe.

I'm male and I need brown. The shoe in the picture is perfect (from bodyline) but it's only sold for female sizes (I'm a size 11.5 USA).

Anyone know where to buy cheap shoes like this? $20-30 would be cool.

I did find $20 of a very similar type. The little hole/slit at the top of the front of the shoe is slightly different but it doesn't matter. But the trimming doesn't look very good, the leather has parts that are uncolored (edge of the leather), and it looks... old. Doesn't look very good, but maybe it's fine?

They're called loafers, that should make it easier to trawl Google.

A lot of men's dress shoes are that sort of style.
It's properly called a penny loafer.

Found these on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bass-Mens-Leather-Penny-Loafer-Dress-Shoes-Brown-Color-Size-11-/321720738727?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ae80ce3a7

They're loafers (penny loafers) and a very common workplace/formal shoe. Check your local thrift shops, secondhand stores, and cheap shoe stores like Payless Shoe Source. There's also eBay, though with the weight of the shoes, it'll be very difficult to find anything for less than $15 (including shipping).

Awesome! Found a new, good pair for $30 including shipping. It's nice that I can use them for other occasions too!

Thanks
