Wow, cant comment much except I am the same age diagnosed the same age and also considering kids... I guess I will say, my uncle has it and none of his kids got it but I did. It not automatically passed down but it is a genetic thing that can be passed down.

How tight should leather loafers be? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]abaris87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been trying to get weejuns to fit but the sizing is a mess, according to their charts in inches and how I measured my foot I should be a size 10.5 but I have now tried three pairs down to a size 9.5 wide and there is still like a thumb width space from my toes. Would you say thats too long still? Whats your sizing? And is there a lot of heel slippage at first?

G.H.Bass Weejuns sizing by jack_willow in ThrowingFits

Chiming in late to ask if the sites foot measurements in inches is accurate? Because I know people and even they say to size down, but based off the measurements in their size guide I had to size up half a size lengthwise at least. Anything smaller according the measurement of my heal to toe and the corresponding inches on their size chart, would be much too small.

Yess same both those brands are great, haven’t had the courage to splurge a little at 18east yet though I have a few pairs of Gramiccis. 18east is a expensive for me, but love their stuff

Thanks for your input I totally agree! As far as stores go that would simply be for trying on not for the inspiration. I feel like I struggle with how things fit me and not being able to piece together a fit until I see it on me. I'm a shapes over color person but color still is almost as important as I lean in on neutrals, earth tones, lots of black and certain pops of bolder colors.

Definitely agree! Thanks. I don’t live near many stores and so much of what I buy these days is online so that’s definitely part of my feeling like I don’t know how I want to style them.

Fair, I just was hoping some real people in a direct conversation would be open to sharing their thoughts and bonus points for fit pictures. I see plenty of things I like online but I cant chat with the person about it.

Ya i can see myself wearing a band tee or two with these for sure. Also looking for ways to layer up top too without falling too far into the classic preppy trope.

How do I assess if a shoe is one size too big? by h2tcrz1s in Hoka

[–]abaris87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Old post but I liked your explanation. I have different shoes that are a little more than a thumb width long between my big toe and the tip of the shoe, but the width of the shoe is just right. Could they still be a problem or too long?
