Lead head, I have size 45 which I think would fit you. There no good to me as there too large.

They are the blue KSO's pictured above.

my size 45's (fake) fit me perfectly and im a 10, i also have 44's (original) and they are a tight fit. so im guessing 44/45 are for size 10. or your 45's arent proper replica's.
 
Just got some KSOs today, absolutely loving them. Went to the gym and did a quick 2k run, don't want to push it. Got a couple of blisters but no aches and pains yet, we'll see what tomorrow holds though.

I'm going to wear them on my 7 hour flight tomorrow as i've heard they're good for travelling.

When I get home i'm going to use them at circuit training at the gym, runs on tarmac, and maybe for squash too. As well as general footwear.

The main thing I can't wait to use them for is running on the beach, I used to run with my running trainers before but because of the instability of the sand running trainers don't give any feedback. I tried running barefoot once but my foot got completely ripped up after a couple of Km and I had to hobble back!
 
Glad you like them mate :)

Just got word mine have been shipped \o/ doing the complicated method of getting them delivered to a mate on holiday in America, so still pleanty of room for everything to go boobies up.
 
Just curious but why are we allowed to talk about fakes so much?
Arnt fakes technically illegal and in breech of copyright? :confused:

But like i said im just curious and not trying to cause trouble

Finally got my KSOs!

Colour is "Red Refresh" if my memory serves me, but basically bright red. Only used them walking around so far but they are very comfortable. Got lucky with the fit too.

At first it's very strange having your toes separated, but I found I got used to it very quickly.

Your memory does not serve you...

It's Red/Black Remix :D

Although you didn't order these so I'll let you off :)
 
Just got a bruise/blood blister on the bottom of my big toe from treading on a stone on a quick run in these :(

It's a little painful but I was almost home when I did it. I didn't even know this was possible!

A lot of people on here have mentioned a sizing guide? Is this something you print off and then stand on to see what size shoe you should get? I can't find it anywhere!
 
It's on the vibram site. Basically, you put a piece of paper against a wall and stand on it with your heel touching the same wall. You then mark where your longest toe is on the paper, and then measure from the edge of the paper to the mark. Take that measurement on both feet, and then check the vibram site to see which size it corresponds to. I usually take a size 11 which is a European size 46, however the vibram sizing chart determined that I'd actually need a 41 (which is a 7). The chart was spot on; the 41s fit perfectly.

I did it, it turns out i'm a 42 in classics (I ordered size 8 from the rainforest shop)...i'm normally a 9.5/10 if I try shoes on in a shop :eek:

Slightly nervous that they won't fit.

As was I - I couldn't see how they could possibly fit me, given the massive difference between my regular shoe size. I suppose it does depend on the shape of your feet somewhat, especially if your big toe isn't your longest toe.
