Tough! I think Europeans are used to wearing their shoes with a bit of give, and flip flops / birks with a tiny space at the rear of the shoe. Japanese don’t and sometimes have their heal over hanging (couldn’t do that).

I am a M in my pair and my foot sits like your L. I made peace with it as I don’t want them falling off etc #itsastylething

cheers. that's really helpful. sorry one other question. i did a few steps in the large and although my foot feels secure it does feel like potentially slowly my foot may slowly go further back as i walk. does this happen or in your experience if your foot 'locked' in with the strap you're all good haha?

To be honest I don’t feel like my feet are ever “locked in”.
Not sure I would buy another pair personally

I tried the famed Christos years ago and was in the same position. I know somebody who is my same exact size (10 in most vis) and they take a Large, however I felt they were too big on me, even though my foot was slightly longer. The only difference I feel is that his arch is much higher which allows him to fit the large, but for me id have to over tighten much like your XL. Didn't want to fuss with it and passed.

Yeh this style definitely looks better with no socks for me.

Decided to sell my large in the end. Managed to sell for what I paid within a day so that’s a relief haha. The XL do fit loose but Large with heel right at back just felt strange and didn’t want to risk wearing DS pair then realising too small

I do think it’s legit, I don’t have much experience with these older style tags but it matches the ones on my shirt I have.

What is your guys verdict on this one

Thought the format of the tags and ICT liner looked passable but bunch of denim jackets show up if you search the #. Shell pattern seemed kinda off also. Anything else seems off to you guys for future ref?

No the font on the tags is wrong

I will dig mine out and send a fit - I think mine is a size smaller than my lhamo shirt so you can see a comparison

The denim lhamo is a 3, both sanjuros are a 2
