Thank you all who contributed.

They DID help the problem a lot but in the end I sold the shoes and noughts a size that fits better. I have the innerd if you'd like them, I'm based in Fourways.

On this morning's ride I was questioning a few of my life choices. Buying new cycling shoes online without trying them on being one of them, My toes were numb and knees were sore no matter how many ways I adjusted the cleats.

So thanks for the offer, I appreciate it, but I think I'll be doing what you did and selling them for a pair that fits properly.

Lesson learned.

I tried these on and thought I'd take a chance but they were boats 😁 different brands seem to have different sizing.

Good luck in solving the mystery....😊

And sometimes different models of the same brand have different sizing too. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I think trying on boats should have been a red flag 😄

Thanks. A LBS that I haven't been to before has kindly offered to bring in the shoes that I'm looking for in my size to try on and if they don't fit they'll send them back. I'm hoping for the best outcome. Especially since my dog has eaten one of my existing shoes (old pair), so I'm riding around with exposed toes on one foot 🙄😄

This is my concern with buying online again. You just can't trust the sizing!

🤣 Previous shoes were a bit on the small size, went up half a size and different brand = Boat 😬
