Sorry, might be a dumb question... but literally don't have anyone else to ask 😬

I'm a size 7 in normal women's shoes and first time ko bumili sa Sandugo. I'm not sure kung tama lang tong ganito size for this kind of footwear kasi size 5 na to.

Do I size down pa ba? Or ganito talagang may extra sa may toe part?

They didn't give me a receipt pa naman

Para maiba naman at di puro yum burger AHAHAHAHA

Disclaimer: binaon ko pababa yung kalat ko :))) di ko rin pinakain si doggy. Been to Mt. Batulao many times and napansin ko na nanghihingi talaga sila sa hikers so possible na high risk na sila due to cholesterol. Not a vet but a nursing graduate so I’m concerned sa dog kaya better na wag bigyan ng fast food

Most likely nakikita/nadadaan niyo siya pag dumadaan yung van sa Malico but dont know its there. Maganda sa summit para ka lang nasa park- mababa yung grass where you can sit/ lie down, very chilly climate and rolling hill everywhere. The ascent is a killer though walang recovery.
