Ok, I'm having some trouble figuring out the sizing for the cobras. Usually I find someone who lists their sizes in some different models and can figure out what I need to get, but I have yet to find the right combination of info. So, here's my list of properly (read: super-tight) fitted shoes:

5.10 moc's: 7.5
5.10 5x: 7
5.10 dragon: 8.5
5.10 anasazi: 8
5.10 team: 8.5
sportiva testarossa: 39

So if anyone can give me any size suggestions that'd be sweet, thanks a bunch!

I would do 38.5 cobras. I have a pair of these and had a pair of tess same size, and the tess needed to be half a size bigger.

I had a chance to try on some broken in 39.5 cobras along with 39.5 testarossas and the 'rossas were nearly right whereas the cobras were super sloppy, so I know some serious downsizing is needed, I'm just wondering how much.

Go with the La Sportiva sizing, it will be the most relevant.
