I just got Sidi megas which I had never tried, because I imagined they would be big enough for my feet to take oars and row, but Brewer ordered them for me anyway because the price was right...and...they're perfect!

My thought on fit is that some part of the foot needs to be snug but not tight. I don't want my foot to bump and slide especially not toes bonking the end of the box or rubbing the "ceiling."

I like it best if my heel is stable, but given the choice, I'd rather put up with space around my scrawny heels than too tight around my FlintstoneFoot instep and toes.

None of the geneologists has turned anything up yet, but I wonder about hobbitses in the family tree.
