Hi,
I've bought a pair of Specialized Sport Road shoes, but I have an issue with the fit.
I'm a UK size 10/EUR 44 and can pretty much guarantee any shoe marked as so, will fit me - with the exception of Nike, for which I need size 10.5 UK.
When I tried on the Specialized shoes, UK 10 wouldn't fit, so the shop ordered UK 11.
However, these shoes are also coming up tight, in that I can feel my big toe touching the end of the shoe. I suspect it will be worse after riding for a while, when my feet swell.
So, should I go for UK 12? I've never worn cycle shoes before, so I don't know how they should feel.
AND that's a pretty big difference between the stated size and the actual one.
Is this a common issue with Specialized shoes?
