How do UP normally size up in relation to street size?

I just do mine in the washing machine at 30 in a tied pillow case then dry with newspaper inside on the radiator.

I got some ex demo 5.10 before and the mid soles were pretty spent so weren’t up to much. Guess it depends how much demoing they’ve had!

About 1.5 sizes down for regulus and 1 size down for vims, according to banana fingers anyway. Not had either myself

I found the vim's a bit weird size wise, elastic comes pretty high up your foot so hard to get them on. Always felt like I'd prefer to go down a half to whole size if I could get them on somehow. Bit of a risky buy if you havent tried them on before, but then probably worth a punt for £45.

I punted. Got a pair of the regulus in size 8.5 going if anyone wants them? £45+postage.

For reference, I’m a 9.5 in Sirius, 8.0 in Up Rise VCS and these are 1/4 to 1/2 size too small depending how tight you like it.
