When you say a little too small, what shoe size are you? I doubt they'd fit me and I shouldn't buy more shoes, but meh, we'll see...

Well, you had Dragons before? You will know they changed the heel and material around the laces, along with the sizing slightly....

Therefore these are probably the equivalent to a new style 7.5....hence why they are a little too small for me.....however the heel is better in these (old style) which is slightly annoying.....

Let me know, I take a 7 in Whites/7 in velcros and by normal shoe size is a 9

I'm very interested in these, and I'm going to be in Sheffield (at the works) tomorrow evening. Would that be convenient for a try and buy session? (assuming they fit blah blah blah).
Cheers

What the fuck is wrong with you people?
1 pair of 5.10 green lace-ups, end of.

(although there are brief periods where I have two pairs as one dies off to be seamlessly replaced by a new pair)

 :lol: :lol: :lol: I asked for that didn't I?

I'm actually a convert to the two pairs school now. I tried a Dragon on a heel hook move on a problem and went from not being able to slap the next handhold wearing Verdes to being pretty much static reaching for it wearing Dragons. So two pairs is fine (I type this with the feeling that I may well be on a slippery slope to shoe induced bankruptcy here)

Tell the BeardyMan that it's blasphemy to own 2 pairs of boots.
