Vass F last sizing... US 10.5D = Euro __?

[etb]

Sorry about the separate post, but I'm getting contradictory advice.

Vass recommends 44.5, a German retailer recommends 44, an experienced SF member recommends 43.5, and SF thread recommendations also vary.

Any other 10.5Ds with firsthand F last experience?

Thanks!

There are many things to consider, but the experienced member is the best advise imo. Almost sure that 44 in the F will be big for a 10.5D no matter what, and 44.5 I just can't believe Vass recommended that. Good luck

Thanks. I was thinking the same. Anyone else?

Thanks. I did see that F last post by Slew, on which is what I'm basing the vote for a 43.5. (I'm actually kicking myself for not buying those shoes!)

Now that I read this again, is possible that Vass unserstood UK10.5 maybe?, that would be about 44.5

Good theory. But is seems like they were thinking US 10.5, because their "International Size Conversion Chart" included in the email says EU 44.5 = UK 10 = US 10.5. Mysterious.

Thanks for the continued help!
