Vin Sizing - Cluskey - 10-02-09

Had a quick search and i couldn't find much.

Seen a pair of VINs in a UK9. I think i am more of a UK9.5.

However, i have never bought a pair of vins so i am wondering about the sizing, do they fit more like SS1s? Or SS2s?
Basically wanting to know if they fit bigger or smaller then you expected

Thanks

I personally reckon they come up quite big.
I bought my usual 10 and could easily have gone down to a 9.5.

Cluskey i'd say you'd b ok m8 they'll probo fit u perfect.Normally i can wear uk7 and uk7.5s and b ok but with vins i can get away wit 6.5 and 7s but not 7.5s

huh, thats funny, i have to go up a half size on vins myself.

RE: Vin Sizing - mr.pure - 10-02-09

Oooops, I'm all backwards here, I was thinking about 80s.
Vintages, if they're suede I prefer a 9.5, otherwise stick with your normal size or just go down a quarter !

RE: Vin Sizing - jam - 10-02-09

Yh with vins its probably a good idea to go a half size down

RE: Vin Sizing - cracky - 10-02-09

i'm a size 8 in everything, no problems for me, i say just try some on mate

RE: Vin Sizing - Cluskey - 10-02-09

never ceases to amaze me the speed of replies on here, its great
I think i might go for them, especially if they go pretty cheap.

I'd say it's pretty mixed response but i want to risk it now
Thanks once again

Cracky- The auction ends tomorrow, although i may run to the shops after work and try find a pair to try.

Just let me get this straight, Vin Lux and SS 80s are different sizing?


Also, any 'common' vins on sale just now i might be able to see easily?

RE: Vin Sizing - mr.pure - 10-02-09

Not many about at the moment really, size should have something, I'd have thought.
I'd have said, all in all, that Vins and 80s come up a little bigger. IMHO.

RE: Vin Sizing - cracky - 11-02-09

If you win them and they don't fit, i'm sure someone will take them off your hands, if they go for a good price that is, but me personally i would run to them shops and try before i buy. ( if you can find any that is )

RE: Vin Sizing - reid - 11-02-09

80s definitely half a size bigger. Which sucks for me as 9s are too small but 10s are too big (both uncomfortable )

Vin Lux's are perfect I reckon (soft toe'd and rubber toe'd). Got 10.5 in both types and they're both just a bit too big (I'm normally a 10)


edit: The vin lux's I have are the MMVII and the brown/green/cream soft toes. They are different to "standard" vins and so I can't comment on the fit of normal vins, only lux's

RE: Vin Sizing - pokey27 - 11-02-09

Agree's wit wot pure said!!! for once lux fit big imho as well

---

RE: Vin Sizing - Minty - 11-02-09

I only own 1 pair of vins (not counting 80s) and they are too big on me at a 10.5 US. Normally I can work the 10.5 easy, but I wish I had these in a size 10 even 9.5. I'd say you will be fine.... I think they are more narrow than other soops, which is why some people have trouble with them being too small.

---

RE: Vin Sizing - kt0626 - 11-02-09

Vins def are more narrow, but true to size, length-wise...that being said, buying a bigger size won't provide much help in getting wider, so you're best to stay as is...80s are bigger IMHO...I could've gone a half size down, but I just wear thicker socks!

I'm a UK 11 in all Supes: 1s, 2s, vins, 80s whatever.

80s do seem bigger though, but I think it's mainly in width. I tried a UK 10.5 in a shop and at first it seemed fine, but after having strolled around in the shop for a couple of minutes I got the feeling they weren't long enough and got some UK 11s instead.

Vins fit pretty much like all other Supes IMO, I could get away with UK 11.5 in vins and 2s, but wouldn't do it with 80s.
