therefore i currently take size 9 in nike/saucony/inov8 have narrow feet, and would consider myself a medium weight...so whats the advice on sizing and to wear socks or not ?

I wear the thin hilly ankle socks.
New balance spikes can be good especially the gold and black onesthat are about 5 years old now and the purpleand yellow about 4 years old. Saucony Kilkenny did me for a season on both track and cross country. Also totakeinto account is the Brooks spikes which tend to be a bit lighter in myopinion but they can be a bit morepricey,
