Hi,
     My favourite shoes have been the old Scarpa Stix and Boosters. I'm size 39 in each (also in the new Stix). Has anyone got any size recommendations for the Boostic's or the Booster s. There's nowhere near me where i can try a pair on so I'm gonna have to order online and guess.

cheers

I used to take a 37 in the rockettes and am a 37 in the boostic.
I always wore a 36 in the stix,  since they're pretty soft once broken in.

So that implies you went size larger (stix)  How are the boostic's anyway? Still as good as the boosters/stix?

Don't know about stix and boosters, but I'm 42.5 in instinct lace, same in boostic, 42 in instinct slippers, 41.5 or 42 in booster s.
Booster s is a soft shoe, great for steep lime but I doubt they'd be great somewhere like malham. Boostic is much stiffer

Cheers Barrows, sounds like the Boostic is the best for me just need to check I've got roughly the right size. Even discounted shoes are expensive nowadays.

Just to confuse things I'm a 43 in Instinct lace ups and went for 44 in Booster S which I'm happy with.

I like the boostics slightly more than the stix or the boosters (rockettes) but I have really narrow heels.

Anyone know how much the Booster S stretches? Just got a pair and they feel totally great out of the box, but worried they'll bag out. Got em the same size as my vapour v and instinct s

I reckon they'll be alright. I have Booster S in 44, Instinct VS in 43.5 and Instinct Lace in 43. My Booster S are comfy and I wouldn't be able to boulder hard in them on the lime or steep stuff. Personally, I won't be getting another pair - they're too soft for me.

Conversely, I wear booster s in 42, instinct lace I'm 42.5
