How Do Unisex Slides Fit? Men’s and Women’s Size Guide
Share
Unisex slides use the same physical slide for men and women, but the size is labeled differently. Women should generally select one size higher than the listed men’s size. For example, an It’s Not a Game slide labeled men’s 7/8 corresponds to women’s 8/9.
The It’s Not a Game Cobra Crown slides use combined sizes, meaning one pair is designed to accommodate two neighboring whole sizes.
What Does Unisex Sizing Mean for Slides?
Unisex does not mean one pair fits everyone. It means the same slide design is available to both men and women using a converted size label.
Men can begin with the men’s number they normally wear. Women should use the corresponding women’s number displayed with each option.
Always read both parts of the size selection before ordering. Do not choose the men’s number if you normally shop using women’s shoe sizes.
It’s Not a Game Slide Size Chart
Use the following chart when selecting Cobra Crown Unisex Comfort Slides:
| Men’s size | Women’s size |
|---|---|
| 5/6 | 6/7 |
| 7/8 | 8/9 |
| 9/10 | 10/11 |
| 11/12 | 12/13 |
| 13/14 | No women’s conversion currently listed |
For example:
-
A man who normally wears size 8 should select men’s 7/8.
-
A woman who normally wears size 9 should select women’s 8/9.
-
A man who normally wears size 10 should select men’s 9/10.
-
A woman who normally wears size 11 should select women’s 10/11.
Use the size description that matches the sizing system you normally use.
What Does a Combined Slide Size Mean?
A combined size such as 9/10 means the slide is designed to accommodate people who normally wear either of those two whole sizes.
Slides have an open heel, so they do not need to fit exactly like closed sneakers. A small amount of space behind the heel is normal. However, your foot should remain supported by the footbed.
Your heel and toes should not hang over the edges.
What If You Wear a Half Size?
ISlide’s official guidance provides this example: someone who wears a women’s size 7 or 7.5 should select the Motto 5/6 size. On the It’s Not a Game product page, that option is displayed as men’s 5/6 and women’s 6/7.
This means someone wearing a women’s 7.5 should begin with the women’s 6/7 option.
For other half sizes, look at the two closest grouped options:
-
Select the lower group if you prefer a closer fit.
-
Consider the larger group if you have wider feet or prefer more room.
-
Make sure your heel and toes remain fully supported by the footbed.
If you are uncertain between two options, contact It’s Not a Game before ordering.
How Should Slides Fit?
Properly fitted slides should feel secure without squeezing the top or sides of your foot.
Check these four areas:
Heel Position
Your heel should rest on the footbed without hanging over the back. A little space behind the heel is acceptable.
Toe Position
Your toes should remain on the footbed. They should not extend beyond the front edge while standing or walking.
Strap Fit
The strap should hold your foot securely without digging into the top of it. Your foot should not slide excessively from side to side.
Walking Comfort
The slides should stay with your feet as you walk. You should not need to curl your toes or change your natural walking motion to keep them on.
Do the Slides Break In?
The contoured footbed is designed to adjust to your feet over time. The slides may feel more structured when first worn and become more familiar as the footbed responds to regular use.
They should still feel wearable from the beginning. Breaking them in should not require wearing slides that cause sharp pressure, numbness or painful rubbing.
Start by wearing them for shorter periods and allow your feet to adjust naturally.
What Makes the Cobra Crown Slides Comfortable?

Can You Wear Unisex Slides Indoors and Outdoors?
Yes. These slides can be worn around the house, while running errands, during casual outings or with a relaxed streetwear outfit.
They pair naturally with:
-
Graphic T-shirts
-
Shorts
-
Sweatpants
-
Stacked jeans
-
Hoodies
-
Casual socks
Slides are convenient everyday footwear, but they are not a replacement for protective shoes during running, heavy work or activities requiring full foot coverage.
How to Clean Custom Slides
Spot-clean the slides as needed instead of placing them in a washing machine.
Follow these steps:
-
Remove loose dirt with a soft, dry cloth.
-
Mix a small amount of mild soap with cool or lukewarm water.
-
Wipe the footbed, outsole and strap gently with a soft cloth.
-
Avoid aggressively scrubbing the custom logo.
-
Remove remaining soap with a separate damp cloth.
-
Let the slides air-dry completely.
Do not use bleach, harsh chemicals, a washing machine, clothes dryer or direct high heat. Extended high heat can affect the slide’s materials and shape.
Choosing Your Correct Size
Start with the shoe size you normally wear and select the combined range containing that number. Women should follow the women’s size listed in each option rather than ordering directly from the men’s number.
A proper fit keeps your entire foot supported, holds the strap comfortably across the top and allows you to walk naturally.
Explore the Cobra Crown Unisex Comfort Slides and choose the size and colorway that fits how you move.
Life itself is not a game. Wear what you stand for.
