I agree. Is this different from Reggie Bush because Reggie knew that his parents could not afford to live in Brentwood? The rule in the past was "the parent is the child".

My shoes are 44 (is that US 10?)

I have a pair of Performance neoprene booties, size 12. Just eyeballing them, playing around with them, it seems they are too tight to fit over the shoe. However, I have not cut the soles for the cleats to fit through.

Thoughts? Should these fit?

does it matter if booties are not tight on the shoe?

Those are the ones I use and I suspect they should fit based on what you describe. If they are new and too tight just exchange them for the next size up.

IMO they should be snug but not tight...but probably doesn't matter.

When it comes to winter clothing spend the extra money to get quality. You will get years of service out of whatever you buy, might as well be worth using.

Correct.

And it's not like it was Cam's first "oops" either.

Most people have both types. I have about four different types plus toe covers.

I already did that once. And there's no stores here, so I have to pay half the value of the booties for shipping.

Hey Velo Gator,

Did you put any large booties in the Mystery Box?
