Hello Scarpa rep here. I think it depends on wether or not ou like a performance fit or a comfort fit. I am a size 11 and I take the 27.5-28 shell. I would say if your a solid 11.5 I would go with the 28.5-29 shell ( same size shell different liner). The liners are custom heat moldable and will fit even better once you mold them. Hope this helps. Also, it is worth nothing that if you get custom footbeds, which I would recommend, then the sizing can change quite dramatically. I have a 11 R and 11.5L foot and went with the 28.5 and a custom footbed. After I had the footbeds made, I then went through with the heat molding and the outcome was great. Even better was the fact that, if the footbeds took up too much volume above the arch, you could grind them down a little but, which I ended up doing to gain a little more volume around the arch. But, to each his own..your best bet, once you get these, is to go see a professional boot fitter.
