Go up a size like Shimano? Or are they pretty good?

Cheers!

Well I find I need a size 48 in five ten shoes and 50 in shimano, but the tongue in the impact low's a bit silly and restrictive, but thats not a length issue.

I find my five tens were absolutely spot-on for sizing, shimano's on the other hand have always been a size smaller than they say

Initially feel a bit snug due to the thick tongue and firm toe rand but they soon bed in as your foot sinks into the insole and they do stretch. I'd go for your normal skate shoe size.

Used to be a dealer and sold lots with this advice, never got any back but if in doubt try them on.
