If I wear a 9UK in dress shoes, a US10 in Converse Chucks, what size do I wear for Sebago Docksides? I don't have a retailer in my country to check this out. How does the fit for Sebago Docksides compare to Sperry Topsiders?

 

[snuff_daddy]

i wear a 9 in sperrys and a 9 in sebagos, sebagos a tiny bit more roomy IMO which works for me since a size 9 in sperrys is tight

for reference:
my foot is wide so while some people size down in chucks i dont, i wear a 9 in almost everything

9 vans
9 chucks
9 converse
9 adidas
9 sperrys
8.5 clarks
42 common projetcs
9.5 nikes
9 sebagos

Does anyone else have more sizing info on the Sebago's compared to the Sperrys?

size 8.5 is a bit tight for me with sperrys, i was wondering if sebago's 8.5 were bigger so i can go for the 8.5 or should just size up to 9?

i would say go to 9. i feel like sebagos are a bit narrower than sperrys.

anyone have any experience of resoling their sperrys? the soles on mine are getting worn through.

Sebago are a tad longer and narrower but do sell wide fittings. I'm a UK 11 / US 12 with slightly wide feet and went US 11.5 Wide in Sebagos which gives a decent fit.

+1 To my 8D foot, Sebagos are a little roomier in both width and length than Sperries.

They're not Quoddy or Yuketen. When your Sperry top-siders wear out, get a new pair or spend the money for a pair of higher quality deck shoes/boots that will last for many years. Even Sebago is a step up from Sperry, IMO.

hmmm wow that is sort of conflicting..... i can fit into the sperrys but the length is just 1/2 inch too small...... when i wear the size 9 in sperry's they are loose even when i tighten them.

I am assuming the 8.5 Sebagos as stated are a bit longer so i should be able to fit them quite well... but someone mentioned more narrow? should i be going for the W? instead of the D?

I am leaning towards the 8.5W

Anyone know any site with international shipping for these sperry's

I know Zappos has them as thats were I got the picture from but they dont do international shipping

Any help much appreciated

Buy me the beige ones and I'd rock rfx. Will meet up on rodeo this weekend for fitment.
