Shimano vs Giro shoe sizing

Hi all,

Quick question, I always use Shimano size 45 (9.5) shoes, some models more on the snug side than others, but all fit reasonably well.

I’m eyeing a deal on some Giro Terraduros, but the only available size is 44 (also 9.5 it turns out…), but can’t try them

Anyone has experiences with both brands sizing?
Thanks

I have found that Shimano and Giro size 45 shoes (which are both size 10) fit the same so you’ll probably not be able to pry yourself into Giro 44s.

personally (limited experience) shimano have a bit more room then Giro, a bit broader. Giro are a good fit for me but I don’t think I’ve met anyone who doesn’t get on with Terraduro, they’re great shoes.

Regular Terraduro are on the narrower side – a bit like Adidas and Shimano in my experience. If you have wide feet then go for the high volume version. Great shoes though I just use mine for the gravel bike

Thanks all

I guess I’ll pass that deal then
