All cycling shoes use European sizing. It is confusing at first, especially since US sizing has a lot of variance. Really, the best thing to do in go into a bike shop and try on every shoe you can that's anywhere near your size (based on a conversion chart). Since there are so many sizes in the sizing system, there is a lot more accuracy between manufacturers; but nonetheless, shoes of different makes fit differently. After you get a feel for it, you'll be a more informed consumer.The best cycling shoe is the one that fits snugly but comfortably, without exception.Also, Northwave shoes have a roomy/wide toebox. Good for wider feet but bad news if your feet are narrower than average.
