Looking at purchasing a pair and just wondering if they run true to size. I'm assuming they do since I can find no mention otherwise, just want to be sure before spending the cash and avoiding return issues.

Thanks

I ordered 10's, which is what I normally wear and they fit great.

Do they seem to be a wide or narrow shoe to you? I'm a size 14 and shoes like Nike and even Chuck's are too narrow for me. Van Old School are about right.

I have a pair in 10 1/2 which is my normal size and they fit great. I normally wear wide boots and most sneakers seem a bit narrow when I first get them. My weightlifting shoes haven't had that problem.

Thanks for the information, now just have to wait for them to get size 14 back in stock.

Mine are a bit tight in the toe box, and took a while to get comfortable. I don't know if ordering up half a size would have helped as the tightness was pinching the little toe, not the toes touching the end. After a couple weeks of using them, they fit OK now. I don't have a particularly wide foot (about a C width), so I was a bit surprised by this. Maybe my pair was just a touch off.

You can always exchange Rogues shoes if it turns out that you don't like the fit of the size you ordered, although you pay the shipping & may have to wait for the other size (I would have had to wait 4 weeks for a half size up, so I decided to live with the bit of pinching and hoped it would get better).

Otherwise, I like the shoes a lot, especially not having the higher heal for deadlifting.

I've got lovely feet, left foot is a size 14, right foot is a size 13.5. So if I try to upsize for the left foot it gets too sloppy in the right. :)

You should actually call Rogue up. They are dealing in small enough volume that they might be able to put together an odd pair. If you had to wait for your 'normal' size anyway...

Just got an email from them stating they just got a shipment. I'll order the size 14 this coming week.

mine were a bit tight in the toe, could lift in them but not walk much. They've stretched pretty well though, very comfy now
