AirWalks Sizes run?

[KYmommy]

Okay, I cant even pick out shoes anymore without the help of my new friends.
I went to Payless today and I normally wear a size 8, but they felt a little big so, I tried on the 7. My toes sat on the edge of the shoeand my heal was at the end of the shoe (but not bad). I NEED A 7 1/2. But, of course they don't make 7 1/2.
I couldnt decide, so I bought them both. I decided I could bring one back.
I heard that the Crocs form to your feet. How about the AirWalks? Do you all get the size you normally wear? If I keep the 7, will my toes, just form to the edge of the shoe and be comfortable? The 8 just looks so big. I'm afraid they will streatch out and be uncomfortable.
Please help.
By the way, just for fun, what color do you buy? I bought the white, just so they would match everything. The yellow and orange looked like fun, though. Thanks for your help.

It's all personal preference. My Mom and I both wear an 8+1/2. When we went to Payless to buy the faux-Crocs, I bought an 8 and she bought a 9. I don't mind my toes bumping into the tops a bit and my Mom hates that feeling. I've heard that they stretch out a bit.

As for the color, I bought two pairs-- one blue and one black!
(Where did you find white? I didn't see those.)

I just purchased the airwalks and I bought the 9 and I usually wear a 10. My toes don't hit the end unless I put the strap on the back so I just leave it up. The 10s felt too big. I just went back today and got my dd7 the kids pink and purple pair. They didn't have white? We both love them....feels like we're walking on foam pillows and they do seem to be forming to my feet.

I just cant decide. Never can make a decision. I found the white in the sandles. I didnt see the purple. Kris

My Crocs fit perfect, my Airwalks are a little big. I like the Airwalks better. Go bigger. My boys have Crocs that they are swimming in. They are the only shoes they wore at Disney, with no problems. They refuse to wear anything else. We have a wedding in two weeks and I all ready know we will have a fight about the shoes.

I wear an 8 and bought the size 7 airwalks. I do have the strap up at the top instead of behind my heel however.

I wear a size 11, and have a 9 airwalk, which is just a little snug. I love it!!, It's especially nice for working in the kitchen, when I'm standing in one spot for a long time.

I went to the payless website and they only had size 12! I wear a size 6. I didn't see any in my store last week. I live in suburban Philadelphia area. Anybody have any ideas?

You might want to try a bigger Payless store. The small Payless near my local Wal-mart didn't have them, but the big Payless in the mall did.
If you wear a six, you might be able to get away with buying the children's size. (Check the website for those.)
