Do Clarks run big? Probably going to try on a pair of in the week, thinking of either beeswax or sand suede.

So I sized down half a size and I got small blisters on my heel in 15 minutes. Do these need some breaking in or are these too small?

They should fit snug but not tight. When I sized down mine didn't cause blisters so I'd say they're too tight. They don't stretch all that much IMO

But that could just be me though.

sounds like it's too small for you if you're getting blisters

Everyone's feet is different. I wear a pair of TTS clarks and a sized down half pair. Maybe your feet lean towards the bigger side of your true size, so that's why you get blisters when you size down half

Oops forgot to mention I'm from Canada and I heard people contacting clarks in canada with no result. Any online retailers that sell the laces for a fair price?
