clarks and vans sizing

[youngluc]

alright, i'm looking into buying a pair of clarks racers and wallabees, as well as a pair of van's chukkas. considering i'm fairly certain no stores around me really carry clarks or vans(at least chukkas from what i've come across) i was curious as how to they size up in comparison to nikes. i wear a size 8.5 in dunks comfortably and a 9 or so in air maxes. thanks in advance.

I'd say get a size 7.5 in the chukkas, and a size 6.5-7 for the wally's.

For me it's:

Air Maxes:11.5

Dunks: 11

Vans: 10

Regular Wally's: 9-9.5

i wear 10.5 in dunks, 10.5 in chukkas, and current Wallabees i'd wear a 9.5 (you typically need to go a whole size down for the ones they make these days)

there's always a million different opinions on how vans fit. just go to your nearest mall and try on some slip-ons, old-skools, sk8-hi's or whatever, and then get the same size in Chukkas.

yeah i hadn't even thought of trying on slip ons, cause i know that the pac-sun at the mall near me has tons of different ones. i'll definitely go do that, thanks. do you know of any stores that carry clarks, aside from clarks london stores. stuff like nordstroms or something that might be easy to find near me(connecticut)

thanks

if you go to the store locator on the Clarks website there's actually an official Clarks store in South Windsor, CT... you can check for other locations on there as well

i wasn't sure if there were any stores near me that carried clarks(when i went to the site it just directed me to the zappos site thing and i didn't catch the store locator) and i wasn't sure if chukka's would fit the same as slipons and such, so i just figured i'd as here real quick haha

any mall has wallies, check the stores that have like birkenstocks and shit, any store that has old people comfort shoes.
