Yes and also there is the issue I live in Chile, so returning would be expensive. You ment 42,5 didn’t you? 8UK is a 42UE, isn’t it? Maybe a 42,5 and a stretch at the possible pressure point?No problem. Although, for your information not all people size up from F last to U last. Some use the same size while others size up 1/2 size like me. Having said that, you mighr be good with 41,5 as well. If I were you, I'd email Vass for help. And I'd ask if you can return the shoes if they don't fit. That might not be possible with MTOs where you ask for a wider width.
maybe I could try with a used pair first...
thanks again
