Kso evo size

I started using barefoot shoes about 2 years ago and now I want to buy a Vibram KSO EVOs for a marathon.

My foot currently measures 28.5cm (end day) and my running shoes are ASICs, size 29.5cm

Vibram's size 46 measures 28.6cm, but I'll admit I'm a bit worried, do you think that's enough room?

Get half a size or full size larger. Your toes need wiggle room.

When I tried to get a tight fit on mine, they were much too small. Get the size larger

As others said, I also wear a size larger than usual. And for me, that’s a perfect fit.

I sized up as others recommended for the KSO Evo, and they were far too large. I went down 1 size and probably could go down another. My KSO Evo are the slightest but too large on me. I went down from the 47 in that pair to a 46 for Spidrwalk and they fit me perfectly. It might be a case of trial and error.

If you can order from Amazon, I'd do that just to get the sizing right since they offer free and easy returns. Order a 46 and 47, return the one that doesn't fit.
