Is there anything you don't know about (g)?!  I have a couple of pairs of 
men's workboots that I was able to find in a size 6 (I take a women's 8), and 
they fit like a glove.  However, you are totally correct about size 6's being 
impossible to find.  These boots are actually hand-me-downs from my 2 sons 
from when they were younger.  I've tried finding sneakers in size 6, but no 
go.  Most men's shoes start at 7 at the least, and some no smaller than 8.  
Bummer!  I didn't even ask about the Ariats coming in size 6, mens.
That might have made the difference in that too tight, combat boot feel. I'll 
check at the tack shop next time 'round.  I find I have the same problem with 
shoes as I have with clothes...I'm just a little "wider" than the average 
woman (VBG)!  I do buy men's jeans, t-shirts, etc.  I like being able to 
select the waist size and leg length in the jeans.  And the t-shirts seem to 
be cut a little broader across the shoulder and are longer than most women's 
sizes.  And, of course, (curse clothing makers!) they are more rugged and 
last much longer.
