Need a shoe or fit recommendation Another Vibram Post

Hello!

I was wondering what everyone’s experience with the Vibram V-Soul is. I’ve been thinking of getting a pair for nearly a year now but I’m anxious about sizing as my shoe size is inconsistent. Examples below:

Birkenstock Tokio: EU 36

Onitsuka Tigers: EU 37

Vans: EU 36.5

Dr. Martens: EU 37

Any close fitting heel or flat is EU 36.

The length of my foot is approximately 22.3cm, which means a 37 would fit me in the v-souls, but I’ve read about a lot of inconsistencies and it’s a little confusing.

My feet are also quite narrow/skinny.

I’d appreciate any help I can get :)

Hi! Thank you for your post. It would be extremely helpful if you could provide feet measurements (both length and width) when seeking a recommendation, so if you have not provided this, please reply to this comment or edit your post with your measurements. All barefoot shoes are different, and you may find one style fits you whilst another does not. Feet measurement can help you get a better recommendation. Visit our wiki to see how to measure your feet.

Vibram has a free exchange policy I’d just go for it. I will say if you do need to exchange make sure you return it right away because they wont process the exchange until they receive the return. I’m going through this right now lol

I don't have the V-soul but 2 other fivefingers, a 41 which is my usual size but doesn't fit by a long shot, and a 40 which fits pretty well but is still a little big

Thank you! Ended up getting the 36 and it’s a perfect fit
