Rainbow Sandals sizing. Please help!!!

[StarBrite310]

Yesterday I bought my 1st pair of Rainbow flip flops as I've always worn Havaianas and wanted a change. I wear a 7.5 in 99% of shoes. I bought the medium which is a 6.5-7.5 but when I tried them on again at home, I noticed my heel is right at the very edge. Should I maybe get the large which is 7.5-8.5, or will they loosen up and be perfect after breaking them in a bit?

For those that are right in between sizes, did you size up or down? Thanks!

I wear Rainbows just about every day. I am the same size as you (7.5) and I wear a medium. The straps definitely loosen up and they should break in for you. If you like your flip flops a little looser, the larges fit me fine too, they just definitely are a bit bigger. They don't LOOK too big though, KWIM? If you aren't comfortable with your heel at the edge, size up.

No, don't size up. They will break in. I'm a size 9 ish and I buy the large and they are tight in the beginning but after a few weeks they're perfect and after a few months they are loose.

I size up sometimes if I can't find the medium in the color I want and they are just fine.
