what's a size for the shoes?

According to Wikipedia: a shoe size is an indication of the fitting size of a shoe for a person. Usually expressed as a number.

Does the horrible smell go away? These shoes smell like very strong like the old permanent markers. Gives me a headache.

Um? What? My husband's pair smelled like new shoes... Maybe keep them away from your nose?

Are these waterproof?

I love these shoes, but they are definitely not waterproof. The fabric soaks up water like a pair of socks. Treat them like you would a regular pair of sneakers and you'll be happy.

Does anyone mountain bike in these? How do they compare to 5 10s?

This is not a good idea. They have soft flexible soles.
