Oh Sara, I'm so terribly sorry.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Shrift, can't help you there. All mine are 10s, and honestly, they could be 9.5s, but I don't know if that is typical (yes, apparently I lost weight in my feet.) They tend to be generous in the toebox, from my experience (which is why I love them so) so if you've got skinny balls, I'd go with regular sizing even if the rec is to do a size up.
eta: Trudy, the murder? Eh, it doesn't hit me personally, but it is sad for the victim and the guy who helped him. It's my city, I'm used to this sort of shit (hello, car behind crimetape for a driveby!,) and yet I love it still for the goodness that abounds. Cause there is a lot of it. Just not in everyone.

I finally looked at the Fluevog heels I have, and I ordered a 7 1/2 when I normally take a 7. At the moment I'm trying to decide between the red+taupe+purple buttons in a 7, and the black & white in a 7 1/2.
Half size up, you can always do insoles and heel grips if they prove a smidge to big.
Sometimes I think you have to have the shit to really know how good the good is. Not that I wouldn't trade, but, ok I don't know what my point was.
I'm glad you were able to help the old woman out, Burrell. She seemed a little confused/confusing as to what her problem was and how you could help. Glad it worked out.
some site, maybe fluevog itself, has customer reports on how specific shoes are sized. Some of the heels I bought ran big, so when I ordered a half size up they were REALLY big. I think the oxfords I have were true to size.

Huh. The toeboxes on all the more modern ones I've tried have been ridiculously tight, and the instep designed for people without one. The vintage pair I got the other day I was able to use my actual size instead of going up, though.
so if you've got skinny balls
I'm the only adolescent giggling over this? Really?
Not just you.
