Hi all, I know that my feet fit well in the 30.5 Scarpa T1s (hired them for the slopes recently) and someone mentioned that BD size similarly to scarpas (perhaps a bit wider though - fine for me!) but looking at the sizing chart BD vs Scarpa are miles off when comparing US or EUR sizing (i'm a 46EUR usually). If I stick to the 30.5 mondo (as with the Scarpas) can I be fairly certain I'll be ok?

Thanks Sandy, it was as I thought. I just found it really strange that the sizing charts are so different since, as you say, mondopoint is really a defined, "measureable" size, not a relative one.

Mondopoint is simply a measure of the length of the foot in centimeters. It doesn't take into account width or volume. That said, using the same mondo size should give you the best shot at a good fit.
