Have a quire about sizing for the La Sportiva Glacier boot, I have heard that you may need to size down. Is this true for the most part, I am a 11US 10.5 Aust and since I need to order by mail (Australia) I would like to go through the process once only ??

I wear a U.S. 12 6E. My Glasier EVO's are a Euro 47. If you have a normal-width foot, then do a straight across size conversion. If you have wide feet like me, then you would have to do a lot of experimenting with sock combo's and bigger-sized boots to get the right fit. Also, aftermarket footbed will help with compensating for wide feet.

Murph, trying to guess Aust-US sizing sucks, but lucky for you La Sportiva also uses a Euro size which is regulated by a governing body and therefore much more acuate. Try to figure out your euro size than they you should only have to buy once. The drop down menu at the upper right shows the US Men, US Women and Euro. I would guess you are likely a 44, but try to find a shoe store that can meansure your foot. Often ski boot retailers can determine this also. Good Luck.
