Size 10 should be perfect for you. If not, return them for a larger size.

Chaco Z/2 Unaweep Sandal - Men's
May 13, 2009
Take some WD40 and spray it into the toe grooves, this will loosen it up and make it easier to adjust. Also, don't crank the straps down as tight. I hope this helps!

Scarpa Vision Climbing Shoe

Look into some approach shoes. They have lacing systems that go to the toe, good support, ample padding and a sole that is based on climbing shoe stickiness.

The North Face Redpoint Hybrid Insulated Jacket - Men's
December 25, 2008
Zip-in compatibility depends on the zipper manufacturer. Every couple of years zipper design changes. I would do some research into the shell's zipper make and size (easily found on the company's website)and then check out TNF's website for zipper details.

The North Face S.T.H. II Softshell Jacket - Men's
December 23, 2008
Comfort level depends on a variety of factors ranging from what kind of activity you're doing (skiing will keep you warm than waiting for a bus), and also, individual preference. For example, I stay warmer than others while doing the same stuff. Really, it's up to you, if you're cold, add a layer, if you're too warm, take a layer off.
