      Does anyone have any direct experience with the sizing of Flat Head sneakers?  I'm a UK 8 in Converse Chuck Taylors and trying to figure out how to size these suckers.

      Thanks in advance!

          Well recalled.  Paula has (at least) 2 pairs.  I'll point her to this post…..

            Thanks guys.  Actually I'd remembered that Paula had these and had already PM'ed her but she was waiting until G came back before giving any advice on sizing.  In the meantime, I thought I'd open this question to others in the forum.

              Mine are marked inside as size 6, and they're a little on the large side.  My usual size is UK ladies' size 5, European size 38.  Does this help at all?

                        Lori's balders are in. Pre-soak. Do you think they'll be too small after the soak?

                          That's a pretty snug fit right now.  They're probably going to be super tight after soaking.  I think I'd recommend going up a size.

                              That's what I was thinking. I went off the selfedge measurements which seems a bit off.

                                Feck, they don't have a pair in the size up, but they have a pair two sizes up. What if she did the ole wear them in the tub, then wear them to dry trick?

                                    yea selfedge measures differently from IH

                                    2 sizes up would be too lose for her liking

                                      The waist has plenty of room, it's the thighs I'm worried about.

                                        you're looking at 2 options.

                                        1. cold soak and have her sit in the tub in them

                                        2. return for score credit….. look at the 3sixteen pairs for felines

                                        looks spot on in the thighs..... but this is how it'll look efter some time in them

                                          Can you pinch any fabric off the thighs? I think those might be fine if you hot soak those bitches from knee down and then slide the top block down when it gets colder and agitate a little.

                                            It comes down to the thighs, per all others. If they feel okay in the thighs now, I'd keep them, if they're a tad annoying/tight, it's going to be a long road to end up still being annoyed.

                                            I can attest to the quality of 3sixteen's ladies denims. Mrs Snowy's been rocking a pair since 2009 and has yet to split any seams. She wears them as work jeans and gets up to all kinds of crazy shit in them. (I keep meaning to take a pair of them…/hijack).
