Sizing & Fit Guide:

• Fit Profile: Athletic / True-to-Size Duty Fit. The Oakley SI Light Patrol is designed to feel lighter and more streamlined than traditional patrol boots while still providing 8-inch ankle support.
  
  
• Sizing Advice: Most buyers should order their normal men’s boot or athletic shoe size. The boot comes in a standard D width, so users with wider feet may prefer going up ½ size for additional room.
  
  
• Women’s Conversion: These boots are listed in men’s sizing. Women should generally size down 1.5 sizes from their standard women’s shoe size. For example, a women’s 9 would typically convert to a men’s 7.5.
  
  
• Pro Tip: For patrol officers and security professionals working long shifts on concrete, pair the Light Patrol with quality duty socks and allow a short break-in period before extended daily wear.
