you refering to 5.10 shoes?
Surely you know that the numbers have no meaning and that 2 pairs of the same size will be completely different sizes.
The phrase "the same but different" was invented because of 5.10

Yeah, but never had too many problems in the past. Just a rough ball ark estimate will do me James.

No idea what Jim's blathering on about.  Pinks = UK 5.5 over 13 years.  Different styles, fine,  point accepted.
