gladiator sizing

[daz h]

okay i finally will be giving my gladiators away this week as they are just to big in the toe box
i just wanted to get some feedback on other users sizings compared to walsh as i really want to give this shoe another go

i take a 10 1/2 in walsh so had a 10 1/2 in glads but the toe box was just to big
as like a lot of other shoes they felt great in the shop but after 3 runs there is too much movement for my liking
do you generally need 1/2 size less than a walsh in glads
david any ideas
other please info is appreciated

I think Walsh are generally undersized.
I'm 10 1/2 in Walsh, Montrails 10, Adidas 9 1/2, Felldancer 10

Hope that helps

You want to try resoling them !! I had to buy size 10 (Usualy a size 9 1/2) and they were a realy good shoe i had a new sole and midsole put on and they feel like a sze 12 .As well as running like a clown i look like one now.Trouble is i think they are a good shoe and would probably get another pair.
Just need to buy a red nose now.

I find I need half a size smaller in Glads than PB racers. There's more room round the toes in Glads but I've never found that a problem as I like them laced nice and tight across the instep which means my feet don't slip sideways. Try retying the laces every now and then Daz .

I'm sticking to Walshes at the moment as my feet appear to have shrunk and changed shape over the last 18 months and Walshes are a better fit.

I've never had that problem when I've had them resoled.
