Mine shrunk the first time I washed/dried them... with either cold or medium temperature water; I don't remember. They now look sorta crinkled/curled up and they don't fit comfortably anymore. I'd recommend buying them half a size or maybe a full size larger. Then again, I didn't read the instructions for washing them, so maybe I did it wrong.

They were comfortable before they shrunk, and are still easy to put on and take off. They look alright. They sort of look like socks from the front. I regret buying them, or at least I regret washing them. They were my first minimalist-type shoe, but aren't much different from wearing Converse, except that you can wear them without socks and put them on & off quickly.
