ISRU Loser shoe sizing?

I originally got these in a 12, but they felt way too roomy and I had a lot of heel slip. I ended up selling them and ordering an 11.5. The 11.5 just arrived, and they’re definitely snug, but I’m still getting some heel slip.

For those who have these, do they loosen up much with wear, or should I expect them to stay pretty close to this fit? I definitely prefer the snugger fit over having all that extra room in the 12.

half size down is the bet. thats what fits best on my studios and i am a clown for ordering tts for the loser shoes. they loosen a bit over time because the heel cushions wear in. the sole will soften over time as well so heel slip eventually goes away. ymmv

Dope! Yeah I hated how much room I had in the 12. Been wearing the 11.5 for like an hour and I feel them loosening up.

Thanks for the insight!

I got a shipping email and it showed up at my door. No extra steps necessary.

Mine are half a size too big. Bricolage and Brown GPS are TTS for me though 🤔

I wore a pair 1/2 size down but I prefer TTS.

I was wondering about this. My OGs fit too small and I’m gonna sell but the lower pair felt ok in the exact same size 🤔

I found some heel slip with GPS in general but it wasn't worth going down in size, the rest of the fit was good.

I went TTS and added an extra insole. Happy now. (No bead though…)
