Same with Sidi, they all seem to come up very small and narrow. I’m usually a 42 and 43-44 fits. My Sidi motorcycle boots are a 44 and they’re just right.

I went up 2 sizes - details HERE. I have done a lot of riding in the shoes since then and am happy with the fit.

They do a wide fitting too
Buy a couple of pairs from a retailer with free delivery and free returns eg via Collect+ and return ones that are no good (such as Sigma, maybe Evans, think Wiggle may now charge)
Feet vary so much it’s virtually impossible to say what might fit an individual!

I bought mine from Halfords click and collect. Tried them on before leaving the shop, Size 10 spot on.

With shoes I’d rather pay a little it more, go to a proper shop and try a couple of pairs on. Saving a tenner online if you have send them back IMO is a waste of time.

I'm a 10 and bought a pair of Shimano 45s, they seemed okay but after having them on for a while they do start to feel tight so a 46 should be okay. Use them for my short commutes in winter wearing thin socks.

I’ve just looked at my Shimano M089s. They’re size 46 EU and I usually wear a size 11 UK shoe.

Shoes ....
Best to try as everyone is different I had to Go two sizes up and they were still tight but looked like clown shoes.best fitting shoes I found are northwave and I still go 1 euro size up

Size 10 here which is a 44/45 Eu sizes, but go to a 46 in Shimano. Northwave I stick at 45, Shimano quite a narrow fit, I've heard of the wide fitting but never found them when I've looked.

As said, i go up a size to 44 with shimano, giro northwave and five 10
I've yet to buy a correct uk size for me cycle shoe.

I have got 45 in Specialized shoes so that's 2sizes, great for thick socks.
And same pair again in 44, snug summer shoe

Go up one, and risk sending back. Don't go up 2. I'm a 43 (UK9) in normal shoes, but 43/44 in cycling shoes depending on fit. Shimano is 44 for me - tried on in Decathlon. Second pair I ordered on-line as it used the same sole.
