[pct-l] feet swelling/shoe size

[Marion Davison]

I am a 5'9" female and I wear women's size ten shoes, but I hike in 
Men's New Balance 10 1/2 4E  shoes.  I wear one pair of synthetic socks. 
  I never get any blisters.  I put a good quality arch support in the 
shoe to take up some of the volume, since men's shoes are higher volume 
than women's.  But I need all the extra length and width the big shoes 
give me.
