Dropdown menu not clicking in python selenium

import selenium
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.remote import webelement
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException, NoSuchElementException
import time

url = "https://www.mrporter.com/en-gb/mens/product/nike/shoes/low-top-sneakers/space-hippie-04-recycled-stretch-knit-sneakers/19971654707345242"

PATH = 'C:\Program Files (x86)\chromedriver.exe'
browser = webdriver.Chrome(PATH)

browser.get(url)

element_dropdown = browser.find_element_by_class_name("CombinedSelect11__field CombinedSelect11__field--selectableOption CombinedSelect11__field--nativeSelect")
select = Select(element_dropdown)

try:
    select.select_by_visible_text("8")
except NoSuchElementException:
    print("the item doesnt exist")

I am trying to locate the dropdown menu of the link in my code. Once the dropdown box is located I want to search by visible text for a size 8. However whatever I try it still doesn't work.

You can try using explicit wait and then perform your operation. Please take a look at the below code which I have written to replicate your scenario. It's working fine for me. Do let me know if you face any problems.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("start-maximized")

driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
driver.get(
    'https://www.mrporter.com/en-gb/mens/product/nike/shoes/low-top-sneakers/space-hippie-04-recycled-stretch-knit-'
    'sneakers/19971654707345242')
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 30)

wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//div[text()="Select a size"]'))).click()
wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//li[@data-value="8"]'))).click()
