In general I do prefer roomy shoes to having my toes touch but even in these slightly smaller Hokas my toes are not close to touching the front so I guess dropping down was good.<br><br>When I started running for real I sized up really fast but have stabilized now. My first pair of running shoes ever were size 11 (dumb!). My next pair was 11.5 and that didn't last long either. I finally started buying size 12 and then even 12.5 which is kind of where I have stopped. My first pair of Hokas were 12, my second were 13 and my current pair is 12.5. All my Brooks are 12.5 except for two pair. Bottom line for me, each shoe is different and you might end up owning all kinds of sizes if you wear lots of different brands/models.Martin Criminalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14279350994717100477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-181141920113252505.post-9301820429278009492014-02-18T14:14:16.567-08:002014-02-18T14:14:16.567-08:00Whoa, your shoe collection is eerily similar to mi...Whoa, your shoe collection is eerily similar to mine. Jesse sent me to read this post as I am going in to see Neal tomorrow.<br><br>Pretty interesting how the shoes rank, but I'd believe it. My feet felt like they collapsed quite a bit in the first pair of Hokas I had. The next pair I bought was one size smaller, and it made a huge difference. I still think I'd like to have some more arch support with Superfeet inserts in them or something. I guess I'll have to see how tomorrow goes.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02863022781106711022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-181141920113252505.post-58193912185951546472014-02-09T16:51:59.037-08:002014-02-09T16:51:59.037-08:00Thanks for posting Martin; interesting stuff.
