okay so i really want some Boat Shoes!
i wear size 8 in converse (but they run smaller in size)
and 9 in vans, slip on
what should i get in Boat Shoes,
im buying them online so cant go try them on in stores.
what do you think?
do they run smaller or bigger in size to?
It depends upon the manufacturer not the style of sneaker. Your best bet is to actually try on the sneakers. Of course, this isn’t possible, if you’re buying over the Internet.
My suggestion is to not buy sneakers over the Internet until you really know your current size (by manufacturer).
Typically, though, I find Sperry sneakers to run true to size (and not smaller or larger). This would mean you’d go with a size 9.

i think the same or maybe bigger.
so get 9.5 if they dont fit you can send them back.
