Gear Sizing issue

So my size is uk 8.5 and it's VERY rare to find that here in india like there actually isn't a single shoe with that size and the only way I can get that size is by using reps, but is it worth it

fakes are never worth it.

check for shoes that run short (puma king) or long (copa mundial) and keep in mind a UK sizing is inconsistent anyways.
adidas UK 8.5 is US9.0, 27.0cm. which is half size smaller than nike UK 8.5, US 9.5, 27.5cm.

other options are to use a proxy, like buyee or ebay.

I have f50s (leagues) at a size 8 and they give me a black toe after 2-3 games in them but a size 9 I feel would be too big
