Hi

I need to order some pathos foot pockets online.

I have a really wide foot.

It is 290mm x 120mm. Size 12.5 US, 45/46 EUR.

I will buy any sock require to make them fit.

According to the pathos chart, a size 44-46 is 280mm long. Should I go the size up if I wear a 3mm sock to 46/48 which is 290mm long? How much stretch factor shoul i allow so the are snug?

P.S I cant try them on but i would if i could.

Thanks for any help
 
hi,
i have EUR foot size 43/44, narrow feet, and I use the 42-44 pathos pockets. A wide foot is not an issue for these pockets, they are perfect for wide feet. the 42-44 size, in my case, still allows for thin socks (2mm is ideal, 3mm is a bit tight). So, if I was you, and if thin socks are enough, I would go for the 44-46. If you want to use thicker socks, 44-46 might be too small ...
I hope this helps, but I would wait for other comments.
cheers!
 
Thanks Scorp

I ended up ordering the 46-48 and they arrived today. They are a tight fit barefoot but waaay too tight with a 1mm sock.

I just ordered the 48-50, will be here in 2 days. If they dont fit i guess pathos aint for me and will probably end up having to wear an open heel fin if the other brands dont have a bigger size than the largest pathos.

Cheers
 
very good then that you did not follow my advise! and strange that even the 46-48 is too small for you ... with feet as large as yours, do you really need any fins at all?
