I got me a pair, but I am not sure if they fit right. I had to get them over the web. I went to Dick's to try to get a store fit, but they didn't have the size under what I have. How loose are they supposed to be?
Also because I got the RX ones, they do not have the holes in them for the jibbitz. Any ideas on what to decorate them with.
 
They are suppose to fit loose and they run pretty true to size.
 
It's always tricky to get the right fit when buying shoes online. Have you tried measuring your feet and comparing the size chart provided by the website? Sometimes that can help in finding the right size. As for the fit, it really depends on the type of shoe and your personal preference. Some people like a snug fit, while others prefer a bit of room for their toes to wiggle. You could also try wearing thicker socks to see if that helps with the fit.In terms of decorating your shoes, you could try using fabric paint or iron-on patches to add some personal touches. You could also look into getting custom-made jibbitz that fit your RX shoes. I've seen some people use beads or charms to decorate their shoes as well. Get creative and have fun with it!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my web-bought shoes don't fit properly?

If your shoes don't fit properly, first check the size chart provided by the retailer to ensure you ordered the correct size. If they are still uncomfortable, consider using insoles or heel grips for a better fit. If the shoes are too small or too large, you may need to exchange them for a different size, following the retailer's return policy.

How can I adjust the fit of my shoes if they are slightly too tight?

If your shoes are slightly too tight, you can try stretching them using a shoe stretcher or by wearing them with thick socks for a short period. Another option is to use a leather conditioner or stretching spray, which can help soften the material and allow for a better fit.

What are Jibbitz and how do I attach them to my shoes?

Jibbitz are decorative charms designed to fit into the holes of Crocs and similar footwear. To attach them, simply align the Jibbitz with the holes on your shoes and push them in until they snap into place. You can mix and match different Jibbitz to customize your look.

What should I do if my Jibbitz won't stay in place?

If your Jibbitz won't stay in place, check to ensure they are properly aligned with the holes and pushed in securely. If they still fall out, consider using a different Jibbitz that fits better or check for any damage to the holes in your shoes that may prevent a secure fit.

Can I wash my shoes with Jibbitz attached?

It is generally safe to wash your shoes with Jibbitz attached, but it’s best to remove the Jibbitz first to prevent any potential damage. If you choose to wash them together, use a gentle cycle and air dry to maintain the integrity of both the shoes and the charms.
