Phunkie Badger Vellies Sizing Guide

Welcome to the sizing guide for Phunkie Badger Vellies! These shoes are designed for comfort, durability, and a unique fit that molds to your feet over time. Here's how to ensure you get the perfect size:

Key Points to Remember:

• Feet exist in three dimensions, so using a two-dimensional measuring device like a ruler will only give you an approximation of the ideal Vellie size for you. Also, note that shoe brands might fit differently due to the various shoe molds they use.
• When you measure, wear socks you'd wear with your Vellies. Use the instructions (see charts below) to determine your shoe size. If you've got a notably high arch, increase your measurement by half a centimeter. For those with broader feet, another half centimeter should be added.

To ensure you get the right size and avoid the inconvenience and cost of returns, take your time to measure accurately and think about how your foot's shape might require adjustments to the standard size.

- Leather Stretch: The leather used in Vellies will stretch. Initially, the shoe might feel a bit snug, particularly over the bridge of your foot. This is normal; the leather will soften and stretch with wear, adapting to the shape of your foot within a day or so.

- Wide Fit: Phunkie Badger Vellies are crafted with a wide fit to accommodate the natural expansion of the leather and to provide comfort over extended periods. This design choice ensures the shoe remains comfortable even as it stretches.

Sizing Recommendations:

- Whole Sizes: If you typically wear whole sizes (e.g., 8, 9, 10), go with your usual size in Vellies or size down. The shoe will stretch to fit your foot perfectly.

- Half Sizes: If you're between sizes (e.g., 9.5), it's advisable to go down to the next whole size (in this case, size 9). This accounts for the stretching that will occur, ensuring the shoe doesn't become too loose over time.

Fitting Tips:

- Walk around a bit to feel how the shoe fits initially. Remember, it should feel slightly snug but not painfully tight.

- Consider Foot Shape: If you have particularly wide feet or high arches, you might find the standard wide fit very comfortable. However, if you have narrow feet, you might prefer to try them on to see if the stretch will be too much.

- Break-In Period: Expect a short break-in period. The first few hours might feel a bit tight, but this is when the shoe is molding to your foot.

Additional Advice:

- Sock Thickness: Vellies are essentially "bare feet" shoes, however works perfectly with socks. Consider the thickness of socks you plan to wear with your Vellies. Thicker socks might require you to size up, but generally, the wide fit accommodates most sock thicknesses.

By following this guide, you should be able to select the perfect size in Phunkie Badger Vellies, ensuring both comfort and style that lasts.

Enjoy your new shoes and the unique experience they offer as they adapt to your feet!
