SL22 Boost

Just a check on these, do they fit peoples actual shoe size or do you have to go half a size up for them usually?

The general feedback seems to be that you need to go half a size larger. So if you normally take 10, then go for 10.5 or 11 if you wear a second pair of socks ;)

Yeah I'm a size 10 normally so wasn't sure if I should risk it anyway for the price

I am UK 10 as well but I got these in UK 11 and they are fine for me albeit I wear thick socks.

Is there any change in these from the 2016-2017 versions, apart from the colourway?

No they would use the same lower and upper as making any drastic amendments costs a considerable amount of wonga. From what I've seen on the trade account I have they are just colour changes.

Adidas cricket shoe sizing is horrific!

I picked up some normal sl22s and found the sizing ok, normally an 8 and got an 8 even with high instep and wide feet they fit really well normally have issues with spikes too!

I went half a size bigger than all my adidas trainers purely due to wearing thick cricket socks and find the sizes ok.

Have ordered at the same size as my usual trainers (the only one PDC had left in stock) so will see how I get on.

I am a size 8 and find Adidas in size 8 consistently fit in both training and cricket shoes.

Albeit you have now ordered - I don't know if it's me but not just shoes but I generally find Adidas to be on shorter side, even their apparel. Like a Medium in Adidas would be tighter compared to Medium from Nike (despite both are same cut/style).

Just a colour change to the soleplate on the Boost...all else remains the same.

@Cover Drive I do as well find they are usually .5 in shoes small and a few CM short in clothes. I'm taking a punt as it was the largest size that PDC had in their 50% off sale.
