Title: 5.10 Hornet sizing
Post by: Nibile on October 07, 2013, 05:00:45 pm

I have the chance to get Hornets for cheap online. They have a 39,5.
I wear 39,5 in Dragons and 40 in Team. (I am 13 years old.)
Will the 39,5 be right for the Hornets?
Cheers.

I wear all 3 in 42.5! I think they would fit but be tight :)

In case you are interested Lore, we have Teams in 39.5 and 40 in the shop for £50... but that may not be cheap compared to your hornet deal?? Not sure what postage would work out at!

Rich the Team would be perfect in 40! Are you going to come to Swiss anytime soon?

I found I was same size in Teams and Hornets but half size bigger in Dragons.

Got them yesterday. They are cool as fuc*.
I even, somehow, managed to cram my feet in them. Very tight. Now they're back in the box in which they'll stay for years, probably.
Money well spent.

Man cannot live on bread with a mere 5 pairs of toe downs alone.
