Five Ten sizing

Hi all

Id like to buy myself some Five Ten shoes for riding on flats, but there's no retailers nearby that stock them, so I'll have to go mail order.
I do have casual Adidas trainers I wear, which fit great at size12. Just wondering how Adidas and Five Ten compare in sizes?
I sized up when I bought my Shimano SPD shoes which worked well, but sized down slightly in my Salomon trail shoes which the Five Tens will be replacing.

Thanks

I've always found them true to size although it can vary a little model to model. I've never needed to buy a pair in any size other than my 'normal' shoe size.

Cheers Stu, I was hoping that would be the case.
As far as I'm aware, most retailers will accept returns based on fit too I think.

I have 5:10s that I sized up a half size for and Adidas Terrex which I sized up a half size and a whole size, former is a biking shoe and latter is a walking shoe

Mind you, I also sized up on my Salomon trail shoes. I'm an 11 in most shoes

Same as Stu, I just buy the same size as other brands - Vans, Salomon, Specialized

I have 5.10 Kestrel's and think they're true to size. I'm size 12.5 UK so many brands don't even do my size :roll:

I find Salomon:s true to size for me, Altberg boots too.
