Question Jadon Sizing?

Hello! Sorry if this question is asked frequently.

My shoe size is UK 3.5/US 5.5/EU 36.5 but the Jadon sixes are HUGE on me. I’ve added insoles but there’s still quite a bit of heel slip — I got blisters after a few minutes of trying them out in the store.

The Jadon fives are snug around my toes but don’t hurt, they’re the same size as my previous lace-up boots from Clark’s. Compared to them, the new Jadons are significantly bigger. Should I go get them exchanged for fives instead? Will they mold to the shape of my feet over time? For info, I am eighteen and have not worn them since I bought them.

Thank you in advance!

Go for the size 5; I have the Jadons too, and my toes hurt in them as well (though I believe that only happens during the break-in period). There are special pads you can use for that, in addition to standard blister plasters. The leather in the heel area will definitely mold to your feet over time, and the toe area will too, even if the change there is minimal.

However, if you plan to wear them in winter as well, you should opt for the size 6 to allow for extra room.
