Northwave Bike Raptor SBS Bike Shoes - Men's

By March 15, 2009

As I look over various sites for some cycling shoes, the sizing charts vary considerably! The Backcountry chart equates an American 11 with a Euro 44. By contrast Randall Scott provides a chart that equates a Euro 44 to 9.5. My prior experience (hazy memory) tells me to believe the Randall Scott....I'm interested in the NW MTB shoe at backcountry. But what size?

Northwave sizes sorta vary from year to year, but for 09 they equate a 44 to a US Men's 11. Others have found sizing down a half size or so to be a good way to go with this brand's current fit. Maybe you should get a couple sizes and return the one that doesn't fit. KC
