Go for a 9.5 sir.


Agree--unless you plan to wear thick winter socks then I would go 10.

I have a pair of Lownsdale size 8 and a pair of Red Wing Wabasha size 8.5. The two fit similarly and I wear regular cotton socks with them but feel tight with wool Thorlo socks.

Danner assumes that you wear those boots to work and hiking where you will be wearing thick socks. In this case go True to size or size down 1 from brannock if narrow feet. Def size down 1 if you are going to be wearing them with thinner (regular) socks

i'm planning to wear it with both regular and thick sock 50/50 time

i'm in non-city place now so can't measure it with brannock. i have only a drawing of my foor - it measures 285mm.

new balances insoles are the ones that can be taken out measure 290mm

i'm very surprised cause was expecting opinions like 10 or 10.5 but not less!

You can buy two mountain lights for what you pay for a pair of viberg!

le kraken, err for the larger size in that case. tight boots is not good for you
