I'd be curious to try 8.5s in this shoe. I've always got 9's in Salomon until recently I have an 8.5 in the XA Pro and it's fine.silveriecVThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18439398153719767106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8803694452918704947.post-23565008394668249852012-04-05T10:15:42.048-04:002012-04-05T10:15:42.048-04:00Haha, yes, out-the-door is many of our middle name...Haha, yes, out-the-door is many of our middle names! Good question on the sizing. I am normally an 8.5, but with Salomon's, both my hikers and my running shoes, I size up a half size. So, I went with a 9 and while it is certainly spacious, it is not too big by any means. The shoe is designed to be roomy, especially around the front of the foot, which is exactly what my feet need. If you get them, get the pink ones!

And, my friend in Weymouth, the runner, said most people buy running shoes a size too big. I can't go smaller that's for sure in the other model of Salomon's I have. Love the first paragraph... Out-the-door is my middle name too! Weird!silveriecVThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18439398153719767106noreply@blogger.com
