hey campers,

can anyone give me a size comparison for the solutions against some other shoes? say miura, viper, or 5.10 lace up??

it would be real swell if someone knew.

For me it is the same size as my smallest muira's. Always best to go try them on though, sometimes
there can be subtle difference's between shoes of the same size and model especially with shoes that
need to be worn tight.

Hi Mr Milk... my Sportiva Testarossa are 42 1/2 but the other day when I tryed putting on a 44 lace-up Anasazi, I couldn't get 'em on. So it seems FIVE TEN may be at least 2 sizes smaller than Sportiva. But like Lee mentioned youv'e realy gotta try 'em on. Because even same sizes of different models of the same brand will have a different fit and feel. So the only relevant comparison is your own foot. My suggestion when trying new shoes is take your old pair with you so you can "gauge" the variance of your feet on that particular day. For e.g in the afternoon your feet tend to swell slightly, especialy when it's hot. And take your time when choosing by trying the shoe on laced for a half hour or so.

BEST. SHOE. EVER.
so good, so aggressive, yet, as you allude, so comfortable!
