Default Iskia link wedge - fit
Quick question - my mom is ordering the Iskia link wedge, but wants to know if they run small or large. (She's hoping they run small because the only sizes available might be a bit too big otherwise!)

I did a search and didn't see a discussion on this so I hope it's not a repeat. Thanks!

I love HH, I have them in an 11 and they are true to size for me. However I have also heard that if you have a narrow ankle they might be a bit big. I will try and find the thread I remembered seeing that on!

here's one thread that might help:
are my Iskias going to stretch a lot?

still looking bc I remember another!

id like to add that if she has wide feet, it might not be the most comfy. yes, my iskias were a bit large on me, but even with that, the bones on the sides of my feet (where your ball of foot is) just happened to rub up against the edges of the straps, and they hurt after walking for a few hours! but in general they shoud be quite comfy if they nto too small in the first place

They are very big on me, as Skydive Nikki warned. Too big to make them work, unfortunately. I'm usually an 8.5 and I got the 9. If there were an 8 available, I'm not certain it would fit but I know it would be closer. So sizing down is the best advice I can give.

Hope that helps anyone still considering these.

I found them to be true to size. I am a size 10 with wider feet and can sometimes wear 10.5 or 11. I have the Eucalyptus and I loved how they fit and felt at first - however, after a long day they were killing me! The top of the sandal crushes down on my feet. Maybe I should have sized up? After a few hours they were unbearable to walk in. I read on here that eventually they will conform and stretch to your feet, so I'm just going to continue to grin and bear it.

Wanted you should buy some of that leather stretch spray. I think maybe their sizing is more TTS on the larger sizes bc I am an 11 and I find their shoes fit me really well.
