text: You may have to order a half size larger than what you are used to. I actually have a pair of Osiris Chino Lows which look very similar and are also 8.5M, but I don't remember them being so tight when I got them.  I held them up to each other and the soles are the same size, but my toe hits the front on the Relics and they are a bit narrow. Keep in mind, I have a very wide foot for a female, but men's shoes have never given me an issue. Size 9M wasn't available for exchange. I believe with time they will break in, but it's going to be a rough road. On the plus side, the blue is great, and very true to the picture.
