Hey. So I tried these shoes on in a local shop, but the split tongue didn't overlap with my foot in it. It had about a 5 mm gap between each piece. The size 9 fit my foot almost perfectly, but with this problem, and they didn't have the 9.5. I was wondering if getting the size up would solve this problem, or if the 9 would have any stretch at all outward to solve this itself. Any help would be great guys.

The anasazi vcs is a little bit wider than the galileo. You may want to try that.

These will not stretch at all, so dont expect that. I have the same problem, I have a high arch. It is up to you if you want a shoe that will not close all the way. I cant hang with that. I would not go up a half size as then your heel will move around and the shoe will suck. If you are set on a velcro shoe, i'd keep looking. Otherwise there are tons of great slippers and lace ups that would work for you. Try La Sportiva, they seem to have a little more volume built in for the arch and instep.
