If you have this shoe does it run narrow and short?  Did you size up?

I also am looking for sizing help. I wear a 7 or 7 1/2 in a street shoe but an 8 in Ryka sneakers. If you pre-ordered this TSV could you comment on length, width and toe box. Since the description states that with socks, one should size up, I am thinking of ordering an 8. Thank you for your comments.

Re: Clarks TSV.

[ Edited ]

I do not have access to this particular shoe however I buy Clarks all the time.  They are comfortable for me and fit true to size.  If this is different and they suggest sizing up I would follow the advice.  

 

I just realized they were featured today as the Special Value.  It say barefoot true to size, socks, size up.  I do like them.  However I will wait the price point to drop.  AS IS or perhaps even Zulily.  I don't spend lots for shoes. Usually $40 it my top amount when something is on sale

WOW!  Thanks to all of you.  I own Clark shoes and ordered this last night but I ordered a size 10 like I usually do.

 

Most of the time their shoes (I think) run a little large...I'm going to change to a size 11 because I (obviously) will wear socks with them.  They are more for Fall and Winter.

@Annabellethecat66  I plan on wearing these even if it's summer and with a sock.  Most of my socks aren't thick athletic socks.  They work with every other Clark shoe I have.  I think you're making a mistake Annabelle by going up a full size.  I'm sticking with my regular size 9 because even with a sock on it doesn't add that much more to the size of your foot.  If you order a full size up your heel it going to come right out of these shoes.  Just thought I'd pass this along.  I also heard the vendor say to order a half size up if you're wearing a very thick athletic sock.  I don't own any of those.  I wear gold toe socks and they're not that thick.  Regular size for me.

@BlingQueen022 Well, I'm one of the many, many people who actually wear a size 10 1/2 shoe, but as all of us 10 1/2 size people know, for some strange reason, this shoe size doesn't exist in most shoe designs.

 

I wear thin socks most of the winter.  They are those weird one's that you buy that aren't meant to match (weird designs and colors).

 

Thanks for taking the time to post.  I won't wear them in the summer because I live in my Birkenstock sandals all summer.  I have many pairs of them and love, love them.

 

You are so sweet so post to me.Smiley Happy

@Annabellethecat66 Awwww thank you Annabelle.  I want to save you a possible return.  I know I hate packing up returns.  Enjoy your new shoes.  I think they're cute and they look really comfy.  I'm anxious to get mine.

@BlingQueen022 I changed it and then I cancelled the order.  I decided I didn't need them because I probably wouldn't wear them anyway until Fall.  I have so many shoes and am supposed to be 'downsizing' to pack 38 years (in this house) and 50 all together into something way smaller.

 

I don't think it's gonna work.....Ha!

Looks like I'll be returning the Clark shoes after they arrive.  A poster on Facebook said she wears a medium and she ordered the wide and it fits her.  To me that says the shoes can't be that wide.  Oh well money saved again.
