[pct-l] shoe size - to change or not to change

[Laura Reed]

My personal experience is that my feet have not changed with long distance
backpacking.

However, I do buy larger shoes for trail activities than I wear for city
life. My heels/pumps/everyday shoes when I'm going to work at a city job
are the same size as they were before. My shoes for trail running or long
distance backpacking are anywhere from 1/2 to 1 1/2 sizes larger, depending
on brand, toe box size, etc.

good luck and happy hiking,
