Anyone else get their shoes?
I ordered a 7.5 UK size, and it seems like they're quite a bit roomier than I would have liked.. I'm a size 8 on AE (Sanfords, Hales, and Strands), so I thought the corresponding UK size would be 7.5. Guess I'm out of luck here =/

jaeun87Shoes sizes are too confusing. Now is the time shoe industry needs to standardize the sizing. I have taken part in two shoe drops on massdrop. First one - running shoes from Astra, I made a similar mistake as you have done in this drop. I wear 43 EU on most of my shoes. But when I received my Altra, they were short. It was 43 exactly as per my order but their corresponding US and U.K numbers were lesser then my other 43 shoes! I did not believe it at first but when I checked online I realized that there is no standard exist or if it exists nobody follows it. Every shoemaker has its own shoe size. One company's U.K. 9 might not be equivalent to another company's U.K. 9. And this anomaly exists for all methods be it US, UK or EU. What I have concluded is that before buying a shoe online check all number methods. If you are comfortable with a shoe size check what is the shoe's US, UK and EU's number and then correspond all those numbers to the new online shoe purchase. Regarding my second purchase, it seems I am on roomy side. I have a writen a separate comment.
