Evolv Talon sizing
July 03, 2009, 09:35:26 pm
Just had a brief look and found 1 old thread but no sizing beta...

Keen to check these out as my Solutions are pretty much dead and I am looking to branch out (to something more affordable) if they are agreeable with my heel! I have had Dragons and jet 7's but both have really crap heels for me - is the Talon's any narrower?

If I take a 6 in solutions, 7.5 in 5X's, 8 in Anasazi's..etc - does anyone have a clue how they size up?

Greg's sizing chart on R&R seemed to say go down 1.5 sizes so that'd be around an 8 for me but wouldn't mind some science/knowledge if there is some around  :bow:

From trying a mates on I'd say go for 8.

I'm 7.5/8 in Anasazi VCS, and 40 in Solutions. Couldn't get a 7.5 on, but 8 felt awesome.

The Talons seem to fit half a size bigger than the other shoes in the Evolv range. I take 7.5 in all other Evolvs except these, which I take in an 8. They are a superb shoe!
