SIDI boot sizing

Hey guys…looking at some Corsa Air or Vortice boots and was hoping to get some info on sizing. As I live in a remote area, trying before buying is not an option, so looking to learn if they run true to size or run large or small. Will this choice be satisfactory for twisty play riding…no track days. Thanks for all information.

I've got Vortice and Canyon, they run true to size.

I can't remember which models I have.. One of them is with a lot or air intakes.

I have wide feet and I chose a size bigger than normal, and they fit quite well.. But I can't have thick socks on.

I use the Euro sizing btw. Maybe it's a bit different in US/UK sizes.

I have the Crossfire dirt boots, the Vertebra(?) road boots and several pairs of their cycling shoes, and size 44 is a perfect 10.5 for the boots, but they run a little small for the cycling shoes. I realise that is absolutely no help at all. So I guess they run true to size...? Are they being sold in U.S. sizes now? I should add that they are the greatest things for your feet since the invention of socks. Love em.

Vortice (a boot I would never buy ...), Canyons, and STs run to size.

Of note however: All Sidis are narrow - stuffing a D or E width foot into any of them, well, GLWT.

If you've got wider dogs, try Gaerne and Dainese.

As Nerd said they are substantially narrower than offerings from other manufacturers. That may work for you, doesn't for me.

I'll look at them Jeff…have heard A-Stars are bad about stitching and cracking. Other possible choice is the Dainese TRQ Race Out Air, they are discontinued and replaced by the Course Air, but they won't be available until next year.

Wales, that is why I don't go to the beach…last time the people almost drown me…kept throwing in the water…save the whale, save the whale!!

Sd stands for super drag?

Sidi has a wider fit at the toe area than A* but is a little bit lower in height there as well so if you're having a high toe area this might be a problem.
