I researched these shoes for months, then got them as a gift...the fit is horrible.

My Shoe Goal: I wanted these shoes for my hiking pack. Shoes that would be worn with socks, are light weight, space saving, great for around campsites and double water shoes. (Like my Vibram 5 fingers)

This Shoe:  A combination of 2 of my favorite brands. Read the reviews, they do indeed run short, but NOT small. The problem is if you1/2 size up so it fit in length and you have a normal to narrow foot-  shoes is too wide and toe box is HUGE.

Me: 8 /12 (M) ,  read the reviews,  purchased 1/2 size-up, wish I could return them
