I bought these Certo Monks from Lance over a year ago and I've managed to wear them only one time. For whatever reason, these have never made it into my rotation so I thought I'd pass them on and replace them with something else. As I said, they've been worn once. The size is marked 9.5/42.5, and they fit true. Some 9.5's are small on me but not these. I believe the original retail on these was $425 IIRC from the VCH website. I don't have the original box, but will include the orginal dark blue dustbag. $125 OBO. Attachment 213 Attachment 214 Attachment 215

Ditto. About sizing, if anything they run a bit large with wear.

You're right - I'd say they run closer to a 10 than to a 9.5. I think I have just had a hard time accepting that all those 9.5's that didn't fit me weren't running small, and in fact were just not my true size, which is a 10.

It may be that this shoe is too widely owned within the forum for me to get any bites here. Does anyone know who makes these? Borgioli maybe?
