Originally Posted By gottaluvdavillains I wear and 8 and mine feel big (8/9) I just ordered the (6/7) through disneyshopping.com so we'll see if that's any better. Check some of the stores around you that might carry crocs (nordstroms, craft stores, kiosks) and try a pair on in the style you want and order them based on that...
Originally Posted By ajnhollysmommy I got a pair of Mary Janes before our vacation and I am in love with these shoes, I was worried that they would look funny as I have huge hooves for feet but after putting miss Holly in the backpack and carrying her around my feet are usually sore and I felt nothing, I now could care less what people think when they see my footwear LOL
Originally Posted By redlegtwo If you go to the crocs website you can print out a sizing chart that you place on the floor and step on. I usually wear a size 7-1/2 shoe. Before I knew about the sizing chart, I ordered a pair of mary janes in a size 8. They were big, but I was still able to wear them. Then I purchased a pair of mary janes in size 7, and they fit much better. I don't know about the fit in any other styles.
Originally Posted By LuLu I think it really depends on your foot shape, and you should try them on if you can. I noticed in the other Crocs thread, folks were saying they ordered a size up, yet here folks are ordering a size down! My daughter has a wider foot with short toes, so I think that necessitated a smaller size. Wonderingalice noted that she has long big toes, and she needed to size up. BTW I'm so bummed to find out I overpaid for those MJs! The list price IS 29.95. Man, I almost never pay list, and here I paid $5 over! To think I coulda paid less at Nordstroms! :->

I'm just glad I was able to try them on and didn't order them online like I had originally planned. I still haven't bought any for me because I can't decide on a color! But at least I know what size I'll need when I finally decide.

Originally Posted By homedisney I bought a pair of Sassari Crocs last month (my first Crocs!), and I totally love them! They have more of a heel than I am used to, but they are SO comfy.

I must have received at least 20 compliments on how cute they were, and people were shocked when I told them they were Crocs. They're the BEST! --except that you can't put cute little jibbitz on them. FYI- bought 1 size smaller than I normally wear & they were perfect!
Originally Posted By trekkeruss IMO, Crocs seem to require very little break in. They are a little more stiff in the upper when new, but you can wear them brand-new without any ill effects.
Originally Posted By Tandelothien Thanks for that info trekkeruss. We ordered some from the USA for our September trip (we don't have the cute styles in Australia yet) and have been torn between wearing them in or keeping them new

Originally Posted By TrixieBel We only bought ours (here in Australia) a couple of weeks before our trip.

And, those things are great for the wet rides - my feet were soaked after Splash, but I just emptied the water out of the Crocs and then my feet dried off within minutes These things aren't very "Sydney", but I wore mine to the local shops this morning... Regards Jenn in Sydney, Australia - back from Disney for over a week now... :-(

Originally Posted By Tandelothien This is all great to hear, thank you everybody for your help. Actually i've noticed that a lot of people here in Brisbane are wearing them around on a daily basis, must be our climate or something.
