Unable to resize Bootstrap open-iconic

Question

I installed the open iconic plugin and I want to force the size of the icon In the original library there is a property to change the size, but it doesn't seem to work on the version for Bootstrap. Is there any other way then change the font size?

  <div class="badge badge-primary badge-pill">
      <span class="oi oi-thumb-down"></span>
  </div>

Answer 2

Came across open-iconic for a react issue recently and saw this question un-answered; for normal (non reactJS) use of open iconic, the font-size property would work as shown below;

working snippet with bootstrap v3:

span {
  font-size: 30px;
}
