   Thinking of buying some Five Ten shoes online, I'm normally a 42, any comments as to how they size up? My shimano's I had to buy a 44. Any help appreciated

   thanks

   I google'd exactly the same question the other day. An old thread off here suggested just buy your normal size, which I did but they've not turned up yet to confirm.

   I just bought some today, got a half UK size up and they still felt snug around top of foot despite being "long". Not ridden them yet.

   Why not go to a bike shop, try them on, then buy the right size.....From that very same shop!

   Just a thought....

   What if your LBS (or any convenient BS) doesn't stock them?

   Ive got 5 10 freeriders in the same size as my normal shoes. Lovely to ride in but foul to walk in and take days to dry

   Same size as normal shoes. Shimanos I have to size up.

   Thanks all, flashy I'm buying them in the sale, my LBS doesn't stock them and I would never go in to try shoes then buy on line.

   Nacho, then you are a decent honest person!

   Size is perfectly normal, if a little wide.

    Where are they on sale?

    Everybody was telling me to go up a size in Shimano - which ended up costing me return postage, as the size up were too big, and my normal size just right (AM41s)

    Thanks flashy, I have a great LBS and use them whenever I can, I ride with some of there staff and buy everything I can through them as they look after me well, but on the odd ocassion when there's a bargain I go online and they forgive me
    aracer they are on CRC, I just bought some Barron Freerides for £59

    My 5,10 impact lows are my normal shoe size
    Perfect
    Until I washed them, they feel bigger now but perfect with a pair of mid seal skinz socks on!

    Normal shoe size.
    Not attractive though, however they do a good job of keeping feet firmly on the pedals. I've been wearing mine with gaiters for the last few wintery rides.

    Mine were purchased from 18 bikes.
