This is a nice shoe - lovely feel and wide enough for my 3e feet (went up 1/2 a size) Unfortunately, there was too much pressure above the metatarsal joint for me (I'm hypermobile) but it was a very good fit otherwise and light.

My EU size is anywhere between 48-50 depending on the shoe or boot. Is it worth me ordering & trying the 47.5 on?
I wonder if they fit large they may fit me with thin socks.
It is free to order & return but would it be a waste of time?
Thanks
Hi Stephen, Sorry to say it would really be a wate of time for you with the TX4 as La Sportiva in general come up short and I would expect you'd be needing a minimum of a 48.5 which is not available.
I'm usually a size 9 but wear a 9.5/10 if trail shoes are a narrow fit. What size would be recommended?
Hi David, The TX4 comes up a little wider and with more volume i the toebox than normal for La Sportiva and it also comes up short. Best to go up a half EU size from your normal EU size.
Thank you Adrian, a few people have suggested anywhere from half to full size up.
Hi David, I agree with Adrian in that 0.5 sizes up is a nice conservative choice to get a good fit without issue :-)
Hi Ian, this is a fairly flexible approach shoe to be honest. If you're looking for a stiff shoe I'd recommend the Hanwag Ferrata Low: https://www.alpinetrek.co.uk/hanwag-ferrata-low-gtx-approach-shoes/
