Is it 100% valid to purchase a pair one size down, or the same exact size as your normal shoe size? I have to usually go .5 / 1 size up.

They run very true to size. Even with a big pair of socks, you will be better if they are tight fitting than if they are too big!

These fit true to your plain old shoe size. I wear an 8, yet my feet are probably somewhere between a 7.5 and 8.

note that us size 8 here corresponds to size 39, while most brands 8 is 38.5. I find 38 size system true to size.

I wear a 10 1/2, so I had to opted for the 11 since they don't do half sizes. They fit snuggly. I'd order what you wear, they seem to factor in a snug fit.

Dani I am 5'6" and weigh 198. I bought the Xl Short Plus and I love them. As far as the shoe size I too wear and 8 1/2 but they told me all the shoe sizes are the same you just pull them up on your heel and put them in your boot. I was not real sure about that but it works fine. I think I ordered a size 9 boot. I have worn silk underwear under mine and I have worn light thermals with Columbia fishing pants over the thermals and have plenty of room in them. Hope this helps and if you do decide to order hope you enjoy them as much as I have. One other thing we called and ordered ours and the lady we talked to was very helpful.

I think they fit pretty true to size. I wear size 9 to 9 1/2 to even a 10 based on brand, so I went with 10. They are a little loose, but I like that I can slip them on and off without any trouble. And a little slop doesn't affect what I'm doing, mostly wesanding. If I were working in concrete or mud I would want them snugger, and would have gotten a 9.In conclusion, I'd probably go with an 11. I think they'll work well.

I'm between a 10-10.5 and I originally ordered 43 and they were small. I ended up getting 45 and fits perfect. I might go .5-1 bigger in this shoe than you normally would.

I have the same question...I would like to order them, but only a 5 shows up...can someone answer?

I bought a 9 for a 9.5 shoe and they were fine. I do believe you can cut them down, as well. I think it would depend on the kind of shoe. I did the same thing Cynthia Huggins did so hopefully, you've made your decision since I didn't see this note until just now.

I'm a guy and my shoe size is 9.5 - so I bought the L/XL. Personally, I feel like they're not tight enough. Was considering returning them to the place of purchase to see if I can exchange for the medium. Hopefully they'll take them back, I don't think they have foot stank yet.

I wear a size 7 women's shoe so I selected a size small. Also when I ordered they had a chart that more or less helped you decide which size to buy. They work great with any shoe I wear from sneakers to sandals.

No. Best read the reviews for the best idea of size. Just like at the shoe store... the sizes of shoes are just general descriptions and vary from brand to brand and never match up with actual shoe size measurements.

you can buy 1 size smaller, I bought 1/2 size smaller and are too big (I have 6.5 and I bought size 6)

They run very true to size. I wear a size 9 which is a 42. Do not go big! Any EUR to USA CONVERSION CHART will work. It is an exccellet shoe.

I find e shoe runs "true to size". Just check to find the European equivalent to your U.S. size.

I find it very true to size. I wear a size 10 and they fit me perfectly. There is an insert that can be removed, although I think it may be glued down but only in a few spots. I could pull mine out if I had to with little or no effort. I do know of a person who would pull his out and replace them with new inserts when his wore out. I hope this helps you decide. These are the most comfortable and well supporting shoes I have ever had. Whenever I have to get dressed up and put on high heels my feet just kill me. I hope you will be as pleased with the shoes as I am.

the sizing guide is here: http://darntough.com/customer-service/faqs#sizingI've found it to be pretty accurate (I wear a 9 1/2 shoe and like a snug sock; the Medium is perfect for me)

Size is based on shoe size... but I strongly recommend for you to go half to one size larger. For example... I wear size 10 to 10 1/2 shoes. The one I ordered was size 11 and was just comfort perfect.

Should fit you fine...I am female, wear same shoe size and weigh more than that. They are very soft feeling, conform to your foot, and VERY comfy. I made my size selection based not on shoe size, but on weight, for support capability.
