The style on these things is nice but god damn they were not kidding when they say true-to-size. I measured my feet at a store the day before these arrived and was just a millimeter under 10.5 (which I ordered). Upon receiving the shoes I couldn't even get them on with my normal socks, and with thin socks they pretty much JUST fit. If you're questioning the size of them, take a half-step up from whatever size you measure, these things are snug.
For size comparison, I wear a size 9 Converse and those fit comfortably compared to these, and a 10.5 Onitsuka that also fit a little loose. The Vlado seems like it needs a hefty amount of breaking in before they'll be really comfortable.
