Today I tried out the VP4% Flyknit on track - I went and bought my usual size 9 because I had heard that many complained that they felt half a size too small vs normal shoes.
It seems that in my case they felt at least half a size too large and my heel was literally feeling loose when elevating foot. I could still run normally but was feeling kind of wobbly (not literally, just the feeling)
Is this normal feeling in VP4% or do I really have my shoes too big of a size?
Not directly answering your question as I don't have VP4, but have you tried to put loop for your lacing (use the top holes to make the loop, thread the end of the shoelace through it before tying)? I do this (for a number of different shoe models) when I feel exactly as you described, and it always works to make the heels feel more secured. Using smaller size would have given me black toes instead.

You can't do that on this shoe
Tie em tighter. I always have to run a little and tighten them, It’s a fine line between too tight and too loose with heel slip.
Your feet will swell though
