I am writing this review for those who are wondering about the size. In my (sometimes) normal size 7.5 medium, the shoes are roomy: a,little bit long and somewhat wide. The buckle is adjustable-and I think these would work for wearing thick socks.
My issue with these is the expanse of the front portion of the shoe. It looks too long...but of course, I am returning due to the shoe being overall-too large.
