In October, I realized I had been sizing 2 full sizes too small and I ended up selling off my dome pair. Still unsure if I was ‘really’ a size 12, I found this pair before the late entry, and they’ve been on my feet ever since. Over trails, roads, 4 states and cities, moving cities and starting new jobs. The adventures continue!
