Am looking into purchasing a pair, but not sure about sizing. Have read that they run big. Does anyone own a pair?

They are not a performance fit, the sizing is more of a xs, sm, med, lg format. I think the "smalls" fit a woman's 6/7. The pair I borrowed for a day seemed true to fit. I wear a pretty true, though low-volume, 6.5, and wore the smalls for hours and hours. They felt a little big, but I have skinny feet, and they are supposed to fit up to a 7. I'd say try them on, with socks, without, as the material is pretty soft and offers a unique, but comfortable, experience.
I have a pair of the Caymans, and they do run big. I bought the M8/W10 size for my size 10 (sasquatch ;) ) feet, and they're a bit too long and too wide. They're still pretty comfortable, but I wish I had gotten a size smaller.
I tried some on in a store (don't remember the model), but we had to go up a size from my norm for them to fit. WIsh I remembered more details - I'd for sure attempt to try them before you buy them...
Having plastic next to my tender bare tootsies on a hot summer day sounds like too much pain to me. How do people wears these things in the summer?
Dunno SK - People love them, though. They felt like they were sticking pins into the bottoms of my feet *with thick socks on.* Hence, why I didn't purchase them. To each her own:)
I couldn't wear them for sizing issues...I'm a 7.5-8 depending on the type of shoe. I tried the small and medium, but the small were much too small and the mediums a tad too long and WAAAAAAAAAY too wide. My foot is slightly on the narrow side, but not to the extent that I can't normally wear a medium width shoe. When I tried them on there was actually someone from the company at the LBS and she said that they don't work too well for skinnier feet.
I can't speak for the adult sizes, but kids sizes run pretty true. It seems like just about everyone has them here in MS. And - the summers are really hot. I don't have a pair, but everyone raved about them last year. They are very durable, too.
anyone think these would be good for a walkabout in Australia? I need something I can wear in or out of water that stays on 'cause I'm whitewater rafting too... :confused:
Dunno about the crocs, but sounds like a good pair of tevas or chacos would fit the bill.Quote:

I'm also a sasquatch foot (amelia!!), and tend to wear an 11 in my running shoes, but think I'm going to try the 10's for size. I have a wide foot, so perhaps I'll do better with a 10. They come in so many fun colors, and I just love something I can slip on and off with ease. My feet sweat even in flip flops (can't escape the heat/humidity in Miami!!), but the Caymans, as well as the other Crocs are suppose to be antibacterial/antifungal so that's a big plus for me - no lady wants stinky piggies, right??!?!?!
Again, thanks for all the help.

Try Keen's. I know that REI carries them. They have several styles, and the sizes seem true to everyday shoes. I use mine for boating, rafting, camping, etc... They will be going to Hawaii next month, and then on Bike Idaho in August. Look 'em up!
They look like plastic but they are more like a foam material. My kids and I wore them when did Disney back in Nov. We logged an average of 8 miles a day of walking and had no blisters at all. They really are unbelievably comfortable.Quote:

I bought my first pair of Keens for kayaking and thought I would break them in at work one day...They are quick drying especially for water sports but they are so comfortable I cant take them off.
I have 2nd job working retail and we cant wear open toe as it is a home furnishing store but these are okay..6 hours and I felt great...
I cant wait until I can afford a new pair.:D
I love my Crocs!
The foam material softens up with a little bit of wear and mine are super comfortable, I wear them all the time.
I wear a size 8.5 in running shoes and my Crocs are size M (8-9). I bought a pair for my friend for her birthday and her feet are slightly bigger than mine and she also took a size M.
