I bought the "Sprint" thinking that I would be sprinting in them, and thus, I needed the Sprint. However, I think the Classic or Original, or whatever it's called, is fine unless you are actually doing water sports. The extra strap really is not necessary. The Admin didn't have this problem, but I suggest starting slow in them. I wear a 9.0 or 9.5 in regular trainers – that translated to a EUR 42 and they fit fine.

For me, having two young kids, going to the store is cumbersome. Thus, I took a chance and figured if they did not fit I would return them. However, pretty sure that REI has them.
