I wear 12 in most shoes. Sometimes I can squeeze into 11 1/2. After reading the reviews that this was shipped to Korea I settled on the 11 1/2 at the risk of being too small and just trusting the reviews. Well it was a good choice. I could even fit 11 on them. They definitely come up big. Don't worry about going half a size down. They can be tight, that's my only caveat. I think my feet are medium and they fit a little loosely in width but not that wide. The shoes are definitely roomy on me. This is the first time I've gone back to leather after mainly crafting canvas (Sketcher loafers) for the last 6 years. Compared to the Sketchers, they have a little less cushioning in the footbed, but are still comfortable. I'm just not used to scratching my skin that easily, but I guess it's inevitable. In the end I think they'll just look worn out. All in all quite happy with them. They are light, very comfortable and very nicely designed. I love the suede patches that adorn them. I remember the Rockports were very comfortable, I feel like they could be a step up, but by no means uncomfortable.
