hi, i'm really sorry if this has been asked before, but i looked and i couldn't find an answer to my question: some sites say that all guys should buy 1 size larger than they normally wear. other sites say that 13c-5 should buy 1 size up and that 6-12 fit "true to size." what are everyone else's experiences? i ordered my size (9 mens) and they should be in later today, but i was just wondering if i'm going to have to send mine back for the next size up (it's "new" on the website and they have the next size up in stock) so...how has everyone else's fit?
thanks |

Sorry to bring back a semi-old topic but it's the only one I found searching so since my question is related, i didn't want to start a new thread, and there was no feedback from the OP with his experience.
I ordered a size US 11 (which is what I wear in every other brand) Heely, and my toes just hit the tip of the shoe. They aren't really tight enough to seem uncomfortable. My question is do Heelys "break in" like most every other brand of shoe/sneaker? Or should I just return these and order a size 12?
UPDATE: After lacing them up. they fit alot better. I'm sure after wearing them for a bit they will be perfect. |

Atomics/clutch dont the extra padding wears out meaning more hurt for you every other model ive tried/used/have yes they do.
Thos include: Evolution, Slide, GRAIL, rebel (although they were never comfortable they felt better worn in), vector, Torch |

| Laces can do wonders... I got size 8 (regular size) torches, and they seem to fit OK The laces are rather tight, but I suppose as that padding wears down they'll fit great. Glad I didn't get a 7, my toes would have hit the front of the shoe (and the sides probably would have been too tight... IMO |
